LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Chastity Bono is having a sex change to become a man. A spokesman for Bono, born a girl to Sonny and Cher, says he "has made the courageous decision to honor his true identity" and began the sex-change process earlier this year. Publicist Howard Bragman said Bono is proud of his decision and hopes "that his choice to transition will open the hearts and minds of the public regarding this issue."

The 40-year-old writer, activist and reality-TV star came out as gay 20 years ago, Bragman said.

In the book "Family Outing: A Guide to the Coming-Out Process for Gays, Lesbians, & Their Families," Bono describes the realization of being "somehow different - specifically different from who my mom expected me to be."

A message left with Cher's representatives was not immediately returned Thursday.

Bono's second book, "The End of Innocence: A Memoir," details how relationships with Joan, a lover, and Sonny and Cher changed after coming out.

In 1995, Bono posed for the cover of the gay magazine The Advocate and began working for the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD).

I just hope s/he doesn't end up looking like Sonny when the transition's done.

I'm pretty sure that Cher is used to surgeries by now...

[kwame k]

Or the....."I thought she was a dude already".

I seem to remember hearing that Sonny accepted her coming out as a Lesbian before Cher did. Which is ironic, considering Sonny became a Repuke politician, and Cher became a gay icon.

Yup, heard the same thing. Think it was from an interview with Cher.

I believe that to be true. As I recall, Cher reportedly had a VERY difficult time accepting her flesh and blood daughter as a lesbian.

I think it was a long road for her, but she finally got there.

And now she gets hit with this.

I can't picture Cher ever fully accepting her daughter having a cock.

Fuck, could any parent, really?

[thome]

Perhaps she will try to seduce, her mom with the new apparatus.

I mean that may just, .... get her mothers attention. I just don't think a simple cutter job will do the trick.


After the -SEX- change I will give you (name your price) if her DNA changes to that of a male.

"Sex Change" ...lol



Do you all think Carradine was a pervert..?...lol


It's The Sadism, That Binds Us.

When she becomes a man after this surgery, he will no longer be gay. Just a really weird looking dude getting ugly women. Or is he going to start having sex with men to continue his gay advocacy?

[LoungeMachine]

GAR should follow her lead.......

I have [podered] a similar thought..? Over the years of wondering who people are.

Do -Hard Brutal-, lesbians who are so unwilling to be penetrated by a male.

Do, they see the penis as a threat, a weapon, a device to wound them?

Then when they have destroyed psychologically, and with the new advent of drug therapy, acceptence of thier femininity, to the point of removing thier breasts, thier ovaries, uterus and vagina . Sewing thier vulva shut.

Then having a lump of meat installed that resembles a male apendage. Perhaps a couple teflon balls..There must also be a pump that, impudent(sp) men use to achieve erection.

Do they want to hurt others with it, do they want to wound women ..?

What do they want to do with what, they loathe..?

Trully one of the most interesting deviant social behavoirs ever concieved by the mind of humans.

Acceptance of what you are not is perhaps not so easy, as what you will never be.

She's had quite a lot of trouble in the way of weight problems she pretty much already looks likes a man.
