She's having a sandwich in a southside Dublin pub and no one pays attention when she walks towards the toilet, except for a middle-aged couple in the corner who giggle and nudge each other.
She's wearing women's clothes, but Beth is a 36-year-old male civil servant, out for the day 'en-femme'. She's single, straight and hopes to get married, "eventually".
