Sex swap teenager to enter Miss England contest

A TEENAGE transsexual has become the first sex swap patient to enter the Miss England beauty pageant.

Jackie Green became the UK's youngest transsexual after an op in Thailand on her 16th birthday.

The 18-year-old — who was born Jack but lived as a girl since age ten — was asked to enter by modelling scouts who had no idea of her history.

The aspiring model, from Leeds, hopes to use the opportunity to speak out about bullying and transgender issues.

She said: "I went to the Britain's Next Top Model show in London and was really surprised when scouts came up to me. Miss England is a prestigious competition. I'd love to win. I've as good a chance as anyone."

At 12 mum Susie, 43, took her to a US clinic for hormone treatment to stop her male puberty. The divorced IT manager then re-mortgaged her house to fund Jackie's £28,000 sex change op.

Bullying led her to attempt suicide five times. She said: "I can never thank my mum enough, she saved my life."

She is in the Miss Fresh Photographic round of the contest where public votes decide who makes the semi-finals.

the Martians have landed in England....

but it seems they have been in England longer than in this country...or at least in greater numbers...

one thinks that the English public school system (which oddly enough are private schools)...are breeding grounds for fruits, nuts and flakes...

The UK doesn’t fund sex change operations? I guess OBAMACARE will make the US the first to fund it.

THe comments on the Sun will make you gag.

Okay, next story.

A lot of British women look like that.

[trebb]

not handing the crown to 'this' would instantly be called "a homophobic move" and there would be endless picketing and shrill hysteria for the 'terribly insensitive and hurtful' decision.

That doesn't take effect until next year - after all, Chaz didn't win the dancing fiasco and the world is still here.

Lindsay wants to join the WNBA

And they couldn't tell that was once a male?

I'd call B.S. if it wasn't for the fact that were talking about the British here.

A lot of their women look like men.

I think it’s morel like how gay have the judges gotten.

...was asked to enter by modelling scouts who had no idea of her history.

It's some prime real estate...

18-year-old Jackie Green is already famous for becoming the UK’s youngest transsexual...

...I promise.

"I would suggest that if he's allowed to enter, he'll win.

It will be entirely political, just like giving Zero the Nobel Prize"

That was my first thought too. If IT enters, IT will win...and the whole world will know exactly why. The pageant should be boycotted.

[Samurai_Jack]

do ya think she’ll win?

[caww]

“They strut their evil before you”... comes to mind.

[mmanager]

This is so sick man. What have we become?

My, my, my.

Tattoos can later be removed, but this cannot. Youthful ignorance is one thing, but parental support of this nonsens is quite another. Article says the “mom” is a divorced IT type. Reality check.

He tried to commit suicide five times?
Guess he can’t do anything right.

[philman_36]

My, my, my.

You catch 'em, son, you don't cut 'em off.

That's a joke, I say, that's a joke, son.

[mmanager]

Man, what were the choices in 1778?

This is Obama’s world.....NEWT HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chode]

Ungland, feh... and fugly to boot

[Chode]

with a whip no less...

[Charlespg]

The divorced IT

No truer words spoken ... put these people in a treatment program before they mess themselves up,and the quacks that perform these sex changes should loose their licenses
