Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks is gearing up for a transsexual storyline in which a 15-year-old girl decides she "wants to be a boy".

The storyline comes in the wake of ITV's Coronation Street which used a storyline that mimicked the aims and language of homosexual lobby groups.

The new female character on Hollyoaks will dress as a boy in the story and have an on-screen kiss with a woman.

"Many transsexuals regret their decision to live in the opposite sex. A Home Office report on transsexualism, released in April 2000, said: "Many people revert to their biological sex after living for some time in the opposite sex"."
