    Is gender change a feasible DIY job?

    Doing PAYE and came across a tax bulletin briefing while looking for payslips. Apparently under the Gender Recognition Act 2004, if I have a sex change operation I could retire this year.

    Retiring 5 years early sounds good to me, but I don't want to spend loads of money or have to convince doctors that I like wearing makeup and reading Womans Own or knitting.

    I am quite handy at mending kitchen appliances and thought I might have a go myself. Anyone tried it?

    You will first have to notify IR to get number for this tax avoidance scheme of yours, maybe they won't approve it ...

        All you need is a pair of rusty scissors, a needle and thread and an old pastic bag. The tighter the stiches, the more pleasure you will give your man. If you want to be really flash you could use a zip though it might chaff a bit. At your stage in life you probably have bigger tits than most women so no work is needed upstairs.

          Well, a BBC/panorama(?) documentary some years ago showed quite a number of South American transexuals carrying out most of the work on a DIY basis, so I guess it's possible.

          Unfortunately (one of) the side-effects included the slight problem of the boobs/hips they'd created (by directly injecting industrial silicone), slipping down to somewhere near their ankles after a number of years.

              The modern socialist is trained for any eventuality. Except governing. Sadly.

              Now where did I put my shotgun. There should be just enough light left to bag me a big fat muslim.
