Sex change soldier becomes a Muslim woman

[Neo]

Lucy Vallender finally feels "true to herself" since getting gender confirmation surgery and converting to Islam, saying that since the surgery three years ago and the conversion last September, "I felt happy and relieved at last -- the happiest I've ever felt in my life." She's been called the first transgender Muslim in the UK, but she said, "I bet there are more -- they are just frightened."


Vallender feels more comfortable in her own skin now more than ever before, but unfortunately some members of her new religious community don't feel the same way. Her local mosque in Swindon, Wiltshire, barred her from praying with the women and asked her many personal and judgmental questions, reports the Daily Mail.

"They asked me questions about my bra cup size, asked about my Adam's apple, about my period and asked to see my birth certificate," she said, and so returned home to pray there instead. "I hope people will change their attitudes and other people like me will realize they are free to just be themselves."

A spokesman for the mosque said, "Everybody is welcome, as long as they behave according to Islam," says the Daily Mail.

She converted to Islam last September, explaining that she had thought about it for a while and finally "did it because it is a nice religion -- so peaceful." Vallender continued, "I felt good and I had something to believe in."

She's found love as well as self-acceptance since her drastic life changes, and is now married to a Muslim man, Murad, whom she met on an online dating site. Though he did not know that she was trans at the time of their wedding, she commented, "he must have suspected it as he's seen my scars." She's only seen him twice since the wedding, but spoke warmly about him, commenting, "I love him, he's kind and soft spoken."

Looking forward to seeing the mosque being prosecuted for sexual discrimination as a church or synagogue would be. I won't hold my breath though.

This is a trashbag that should be stoned.

[aging one]

It seems he/she paid for the operation herself. Better than Bradley Manning who says he will use tax payer money to get his gender reassignment while in the klink. Fuck this PC shit when he gets his balls and cock chopped off and a hole cut. Frig me.

You mean sexual discrimination like in Catholic and Jewish temples can't have female priests, and can't abuse little girls?
