Female-born transexual: I'd rather die as an ugly man

THEY live on the fringes, shunning attention, like this Singaporean transsexual.

Jack (not his real name) was born more of a Jill.

Only last month did he and three others summon enough courage to tell their story at an open forum.

The forum, the first of its kind, was organised by SgButterfly, a group for transsexuals here.

The speakers were all born women and want or subsequently got a sex change.

According to one study, there are far more men who seek to be women (transwomen) than the other way around (transmen).
