WHEN Ian Young sat down next to a beautiful woman in a packed cafe in Kuala Lumpur, he had no idea they would one day be married.

Nor did he know that his pretty companion was a man.

In just three years, Ian has gone from being a straight lad from Derby - who was with his previous girlfriend for eight years - to being in a full-time same-sex relationship.

Ian married 36-year-old Fatine, who is a pre-op transsexual, in a British civil partnership ceremony in May.

Damn, I need to go to Starbucks more.  And the U.K. Must not have laws that male her a resident because of marriage, or what have you.  I hope she can go home to Ian soon.

Give me an effin break. She probably should have told him that she was pre op before they got married. But calling her a man...UGGH..

She told him when they first met, when he asked for her number.

Transsexual's fight for a visa

A TRANSSEXUAL woman married to a Derby man could face 20 years in jail if she is forced to return to her home country after being turned down for a visa.

Fatine Young, 36, who was born a man, has lived with her husband, school caretaker Ian Young, in Spondon for six months.

Ian first met her in a coffee shop in Malaysia and did not realise she was transsexual.

But despite Fatine's revelation and her refusal to have sex-change surgery, Ian says he is still in love and "can't contemplate his life without her''.

What I take from that bit of news is the retarded amounts of wrong pronouns.
