"...because she is a man..." said Allred
I guess you can supply your own meaning to words now. We will now be referring to ourselves with the royal "we", because we feel we are really a king, but were born in the wrong body.

"I want to make people look nice and look good..." "...just like me," s/he said.

"Sandy was very happy, but her happiness did not last very long," There's a children's book in there somewhere...

Sandy, who surprised her friends by coming out as a man, told Reuters that his dream is to open his own salon.How does Allred go about finding a jury of her/his peers?? Pun intended.

Speaking of pronoun hell:
After Oxford, and a Harkness Fellowship in the United States, Morris spent ten years as a foreign correspondent for the London Times and The Guardian, an experience that led to Morris's historical coverage of the 1953 Everest expedition, and to numerous subsequent ventures to cover wars, revolutions, trials, elections, and political crises on every continent. In 1961, Morris left newspaper work to write books, and at one time or another lived in America, Venice, the French Alps, Egypt, Spain, and Wales, where Jan Morris is now settled.Morris is the recipient of the George Polk Memorial Award for Journalism in America for 1961 and the Heinemann Award of the Royal Society of Literature in England for the same year.
In 1972, James Morris became Jan Morris; Farewell the Trumpets is the last of her works to appear under her original name.

"Two hours later, after learning from Sandy's passport that she was legally a man, school officials called to say that she would not be permitted to attend classes because of concerns over which restroom he would use at school, Allred said." I'm fully with the school "authorities" on this one! My gosh! Only in America can a non-citien from some place like "IWANNABEAGIRLASTAN" hire a "home-grown" idiot to sue a host national for damaging his/her self respect by insisting they let the school know which facility they will be using! (Let's not even get into the question of whether it's proper to use the "I have to do the #1 or #2 when she/he raises her hand to go!)
If he/she didn't want to answer the gender question...he/she could have answered in a Bill Clinton sort of way... "It depenends on what the definition of "His" is?

There's a children's book in there somewhere... "Sandy was very happy, but her happiness did not last very long. Her penis grew cramped tucked as it was in her undies."

In 1972, James Morris became Jan Morris; Farewell the Trumpets is the last of her works to appear under her original name. The weirdest part of that story: Jan remains married to the woman who married James. Which prompts a number of questions such as "Did they have a second honeymoon?" ... and others too dreadful to contemplate.

Last year, a good friend of mine, went to truck driving school, and no one said anyhthing about her wearing pants and looking what I consider to be rather "butch", or mannish. Anyways, she is a long distance trucker now, and is accepted by everyone, everywhere. I also have 2 girlfriends who were in in the army and the air force, and they too had no problems.
What is the big deal about a man that wants what was traditionally a woman's job?

Nothing, but be prepared to have everyone on the planet assume you're light in the loafers.
