SAUDI ARABIA: WOMAN CHANGES SEX, DREAMS OF DRIVER'S LICENCE
(ANSAmed) - RIYADH, AUGUST 21 - A 19-year-old Saudi Arabian woman, Myriam, has undergone a successful sex-change operation in Jeddah and now, with her new name of Khaled, aspires for just one thing: a driving licence. Saudi Arabia is the only country in the world where women are banned from driving, added Okaz daily, reporting the news today. "The first idea that came to my mind a few hours before the operation, was to have a driving licence," Myriam/Khaled told the newspaper, adding she was encouraged by her family to have the operation. Sex change operations are rare in ultra-conservative Saudi Arabia. "I entered (the hospital) with the abaya (traditional women's garment) and I came out with thub, ghotra and ogal, the white tunic and hat worn by men," Myriam/Khaled said. (ANSAmed).

It’s illegal for women to drive in Saudi, but they can have sex-change operations?
Wouldn’t it make sense for all muslim women to get the operation? The way they’re treated...
Yeah...that’s the road they’re headed down.
This Sneetch on the Beach just added her star.
“Its illegal for women to drive in Saudi, but they can have sex-change operations?”
The questions abound. Did the state pay for the operation? Since its illegal for a man to see a woman thats not his wife naked how did the doctor perform this operation? Blindfolded perhaps?
“Does the world really need twice as many idiots like this?”
It would be problematic for a while but since the birth rate would rapidly decline the problem would eventually be solved.
Nothing about this bizarre death cult surprises me, however.
Also dreaming of driving a stick shift, I presume. She certainly has balls.
Infidel, prepare to die!
“thub, ghotra and ogal”?
What the H-— is that? A new inventory of body parts?
I have read several articles about how “tolerant” Iran is of these sex changes. To me that just shows how messed up their brand of Islam is. A man is a man no matter what you cut off and a woman is a woman no matter what you add!
