TRANS-WOMAN WITH £180K BODY CAN’T FIND LOVE

A transgender model, who has spent £180k on surgery to become a ‘desirable’ woman, has told of her struggle to find a man who is openly accepting of trans-women. Single Kelly Star, of Perth, Australia, says that since transitioning she has faced a constant challenge to find a partner who will admit to friends and family that he is dating a trans-woman. While the 46-year-old is never shy of male attention, thanks to her curvaceous figure and size 32K breast implants, she has been single for 12 years. Kelly admits that the men she meets are more interested in having a one-night stand than committing to a relationship, because they are worried about what others will think. Kelly, who transitioned thirty years ago, says: "For most guys, being with a trans-woman might be something that they’re intrigued by and they just want to be with you once, which is disheartening."
