From the Telegraph, Marriage rights planned for transsexuals.

But don't worry bigots, the Government hasn't forgotten you.

*In a concession to concerns in the Anglican Church about the sexuality reforms, priests will for the first time be able to refuse to carry out a marriage ceremony if the bride or groom is a transsexual.

*[Transexuals] will have to meet medical criteria, give a sworn statement that they have lived in their new gender for at least a few years and that they intend to continue until death.

*Lord Filkin said he expected a Bill to go to Parliament some time next year.


Oh, whenever you feel like it really. I mean, it's only transsexuals right? And they have to persuade the 'Gender Recognition Panel' that they're serious about this whole 'changing sex, spending a year or two 'living their new role' and risking getting attacked or killed, major internal surgery'-thing. Because, as we all know, one wild night and the next morning you're waking up wearing new clothes and someone's nicked most of your sexual organs.
