"Comment:
Excuse my ignorance, but I have a question: What is meant by trans man? Is he a biological male who feels he should be a female? or is he a biological female who feels he should be a male?"

"Comment:
Yes Saul born male but feels they are female. In this case a pre-op."

Alejandro Iglesias, a cast member of Big Brother in Argentina, told several of his housemates that he is a trans man.

Blabbeando reports on the development, which the blog calls "as visible a forum as there ever has been for trans issues in Latin America," where Iglesias has defied predictions that he would be the first person booted off the show.
