He Never Noticed?

In the spring of 2000, it was reported that a 25-year-old Tehran transsexual, who had just undergone extensive surgery to become a woman, said he wanted to change back to a man after realizing just how poorly women are treated in Iran.

Did you Snopes that story? I'm dubious!

Yikes - sounds like major expense!

I didn't find anything on this on Snopes. It does sound odd. Let me know if you find anything about it.

I wouldn't think you could switch back and forth like that. They have all that counseling to be sure that's what they want to do and prepare for it. Also don't they live as the gender they're changing to before the surgery again to be sure?
