So apparently Prince William is feeling pre-wedding nerves. He's also inviting everyone from the helicopter base where he's currently training to the wedding.
But evidently, that's not quite newsworthy enough for the Daily Wail (a far more appropriate name for the newspaper!). So they've done some digging and found one of his colleagues is transgendered... and yes, the tone of the article is about what you'd expect from that publication.
If you haven't had your daily dose of fuming at people like the (anonymous) reporter, then here's the article.
But hang on a minute - that story's not original. They even admit that they 'alf-inched it from The Sun (which, predictably enough, features photographs of Ayla / Ian).

Hang on....
Look at the comment ratings. Has someone invaded the Wail's customer base?
Look at the comments
in the Sun; at this rate they'll be using words of three syllables before long.
Why are they always surprised with the number of trannies in the armed services? They go there to prove they're men and fail, or hope to get themselves killed and end their suffering. Only place with more trannies per square inch is the NHS.

I hadn't looked at the Sun's, I just sort of...assumed. I simply look at my own circumstances. I know of four other 'trannies' I may have worked with. One, that I am not sure I have actually worked with, but knows people I do, is Topsy, of this site, no secrets there. Two, I know I have definitely worked with, one of whom left in nasty circumstances. I just get on with things, though I have one, at least, possibly two, 'tranny chasers'.
Sorry to make this a 'me' comment, but my point is that one can never forecast how one will be received. What drives me upthe wall, regardless of how the comments unfold, is the whole Jerry Springer/Jeremy Kyle freak show attitude.
Sorry. Had a bad day. Got a shit week ahead. Got fat blokes with beards who need to be my friend. Move along, nothing to see.
Cute Girl,
Funny looking guy. I wish her the best of luck and everything else.
Hugs and Bright Blessings,
