    He was genetically born a man, unless the X Y chromosones have dissapeared entirely and his genetic structure altered, he is therefore still a man, you do not become genderless or a women after a bit of superficial wallpapering.

    But it's their choice, I will not stop them, this is after all a form of self determination in it's most basic of forms.

    This is madness. This is just typical “progressive” ultra left wing so called free thinking garbage, who just want to destroy the world. This is another prove that Europe is in Moral decline..a culture of death/destruction.

    You have to be pretty tortured inside to want to do that to yourself, a little compassion wouldn't go amiss.

    May welby has all right to regret for having changed the sex of birth , if this person realised that doesent feel happy as a woman neather, i wonder why should May welby to be considered as a woman, i think that recognizing a new gender called neuter, is one more step to the progress, all of us have all right to regret about our decitions, and we have right too to find a solution that satisfy us, we have only one life, and we must enjoy it, anyway i know that there are plenty of idiots minds that wont never understand it.
    When i recognize my self as gay, i didn't care in absolut about everyone else's opinions, people are not going to tell me who should i have sex with, when people ask me if have a girfriend, i just say no, because i'm gay

    The press always stretches the truth! I know Norrie personally and Norrie is not a “neuter”, at least not physically. Norrie simply had a sexchange operation from male to female, became disenchanted after a life-changing decision and returned to living as a male, albeit with the sexchange vagina that was supposed to make him a her.

    Norrie's physical genitalia could be argued in several ways.... Does surgically moving a penis inside the body somehow magically make it become a vagina? Think of it this way.... if the penis was surgically attached to someone's face where the nose is supposed to be would that penis now magically become a nose or would it still be a penis? The only way Norri'es physical gender/sex could legally be considered neuter is if the penis was completely removed from the body. This is not the case in sexchange operations.

    What is one to do after making such a huge decision and finding out it was not right for you? Do you remain living as a woman and be desperately unhappy? Norrie was brave enough to decide to live however he had to to find his peace. Hopefully, living in a self-defined neuter situation as a male with a sexchange vagina will be a satisfactory situation. Additional surgery between his legs that would remove the created vagina would truly make him a physical neuter.

    Another Australian ex-transsexual by the name of Alan Finch, formerly Helen Finch, had surgery to remove the created vagina. In Alan Finch's case his desire was not to become a neuter, but just to rid himself of the created vagina that made him feel uncomfortable after returning to live as a man.

    In another story there is Josef Kirchner, an American ex-transsexual who also became dissatisfied with living as female after undergoing sexchange surgery. Josef neither feels neuter or unhappy with the penile inversion technique surgery that created a vagina. Josef feels very will satisfied being a 6'3” handsome man

    CONTINUED....

    Sorry, somehow the “submit comment” got pushed before I was finished.

    As I was saying, Josef Kirchner feels very well satisfied with now being a 6'3“ handsome man who trains as a bodybuilder. In Josef's own words from his website: ”I was on a journey to discover me. I spent the first 19 years of my life living as a very unhappy boy and thought I'd found peace after my sexchange operation. I gave it 20 years, but I realized I was not happy. I bravely took another chance at happiness and it paid off! Living now as a guy with a vagina is a good fit for me.”

    Josef Kirchner lives in Hollywood, California and his personal website has links to several documentaries that have been made about his unique life. www.JosefKirchner.com
