Help! I’m Turning Into a Woman!

London (agencies) A Desperate dad last night begged medics for help because he is turning naturally into a woman. Pub singer Terry Wright said: “I am a man, not a woman. And I do not want to be a woman.
“I just want to get my life back to normal.” Father-of-five Terry, 60, started losing his hair and beard ten years ago.
Since then he has developed smooth skin, hot flushes. And kids living nearby taunt him by calling him “She-Man”.
Blood tests have revealed Terry has abnormally high levels of the female hormone oestrogen. But doctors who have examined him say they have never seen such a case – and do not know what to do to reverse the process. Wig-wearing Terry, of Birmingham, pleaded for an expert to come forward to get to the root of the problem. He said: “Doctors call me an ‘interesting case’ and ‘unique’ but I just want to go back to being a proper man.
“I get mocked by kids where I live who call me She-Man and other names. Once a child bumped into me and its mother said, ‘Say sorry to the lady.’ My mates are shocked at my appearance but try to make light of it by saying I’m just a pretty-looking man.” Terry’s 5ft 4in height and slim build make him look even more feminine. His GP suspected he was trying to change gender and even offered him a sex swap. But Terry furiously rejected the suggestion. A psychiatrist has judged him mentally sound and an MRI scan ruled out the oestrogen surge being caused by a tumour. Specialist Professor Richard Ross said: “This case seems very unusual.”

[Jet Jaguar]

Weird.

[gorush]

I’m definitely a man, but if I were a woman, I’d be a lesbian.

[HawaiianGecko]

Ugly no matter the sex.

[Jedidah]

So why is he wearing lipstick if he doesn’t want to be mistaken for a woman?

[Tamar1973]

I woudn’t call the guy in that picture “slim build” by any stretch. Lose the lipstick and lose the wig! That’ll help quite a bit.

He needs to take a queue from Bruce Willis,who looks quite good bald.

[Spok]

Looking at his picture, it seems like he’s helping the process along with his hair style and some make up; call me a skeptic.

[csmusaret]

Drugs for breast cancer patients will control his estrogen, but it sounds like he could also use a testosterone boost.

[babyfreep]

Well, if he’d fix his hair a little different it might help some. geez

[Resolute Conservative]

Looks like almost every other cafeteria worker I’ve every seen.

[decimon]

“I am a man, not a woman. And I do not want to be a woman.

Why the lipstick and shaved eyebrows?

[Alouette]

Shave his head and stop using lipstick.

[brooklyn dave]

Used to be a papaer Weekly World which had all sorts of crazy articles in it——sounds like it came from some trippy paper like that in England.

[Libertarianize the GOP]

Lose weight, excess abdominal fat converts testosterone to estrogen.

[brooklyn dave]

Would have gotten a better wig. Did he buy it from the Hasidic ladies in Brooklyn?

[brooklyn dave]

Oh God, now I am afraid to go on a diet.

[Xenalyte]

Point of order: with a head that size, there is NO WAY this guy has a “slim build.”

And perhaps if he didn’t wear a girly wig and all that lipstick, people might not be so confused.

[Coffee200am]

I wonder if I would complain...If I had a choice...If it was going to happen to me...

[brwnsuga]

He might want to think about a different haircut and lay off the cosmetics.

[Marie2]

So if he wants to stay a man, why is he wearing lipstick and why doesn’t he cut his hair?

[KosmicKitty]

Wonder how much soy he consumes?

[nkycincinnatikid]

Then, on the bright side, he might just become the woman he always wanted.

Why can’t a woman be more like a man?
Men are so decent, such regular chaps,
ready to help you through any mishaps,
ready to buck you up whenever your’e glum.
Why can’t a woman be a chum?

[Libertarianize the GOP]

You have it backwards, the the fat while it is on you belly converts testosterone to estrogen, losing weight will leave you with more testosterone and less estrogen.

[IronJack]

I think Helen Thomas has this same disease.

[onedoug]

Dare I ask, his privates?

[OCC]

Normally I would call BS on this story, but it’s sourced from the Bahrain Tribune!

[SnakeDoctor]

Maybe he’d be better off if he lost the Hillary Clinton haircut and laid off the lipstick a little bit.

[PghBaldy]

It appears to be bad lighting in the photo. MAYBE he’s not wearing lipstick. Strange things can happen to people. I read of a 4-5 yr old boy who went through puberty cause his dad’s testerone patches were left laying around or somethng.

[Joe Boucher]

Guy’s turning in to a woman?
Sounds like about half the males in America. The wussification
of America continues.

[Nik Naym]

#1 I don’t find the story at the link.

#2 The picture comes from http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn283/COFFEE200AM/3_7_2008_p10-2.jpg

Something doesn’t smell right here.

[Coffee200am]

It defaults to their main page...I guess to prevent linking....or just bad html.

[Tucson Jim]

Yes! He should cut the soy products. They are converted to estrogen. There is too much soy in processed foods as it is. Men should avoid soy unless they want to turn into girly men.

[paulat]

Normally I would call BS on this story, but it’s sourced from the Bahrain Tribune!

LOLOLOLOL!!!

[Paved Paradise]

Is this for real? While I can’t make much commentary on the soft skin, hot flashes and stuff, I think the plucked eyebrows and hairdo were definitely of his own making. This guy is a little wacked.

And.... considering the recent news about all the pharmaceuticals they found in our water supply, including hormones, maybe he needs to find out what’s in his water supply.

[Coffee200am]

I wanted to post the story about Obama, BBQ and McCain :

Obama beats McCain as barbecue guest

But it's got the AP extortion logo on it.

[aruanan]

I’m guessing that the state health MRI was either done wrong or not at all, missing a brain tumor.

[Eepsy]

This appears to be the original story:

[rrrod]

Sounds like your everday, typical registered Democrat to me.

[ETL]

Help! I’m Turning Into a Woman!

[USFRIENDINVICTORIA]

Exactly what I was wondering. Tofu ta-tas.

[knarf]

Exactly ... and it took 5 replies.

I call this pure BS for the faggot nation that wants a case of, "we're all a little of both".

S'cuse me ... I gutt'a puke.

[knarf]

"Wonder how much soy he consumes?"

There's soy in it, too ?

[ut1992]

That’s funny! A buddy of mine in college used to always say that he “was a lesbian trapped in a man’s body”.

[scrabblehack]

Did anyone see the 2003 version?

[ThomasThomas]

Isn’t that a Beetle hair cut?

[Slings and Arrows]

And to make matters worse, the penguin on top of his television set keeps exploding.

[Allegra]

So why is he wearing lipstick if he doesn’t want to be mistaken for a woman?

And a girlie haircut or wig or whatever that is...

[Grizzled Bear]

Dare I ask, his privates?

That sounds kinda creepy, but what do you want to ask them?

[Yaelle]

So estrogen itself is tweezing his brows, putting makeup on him, and curling his bangs under just so?

[onedoug]

The difference between men and women. Organ wise.
