Transgender male faces big operation
Billy-Jo Newington, 25, was born as a girl called Connie but has been desperate to be a boy since the age of four. He started taking male hormones more than two years ago, quickly transforming him from a size eight girl into a muscular man with stubble. Engaged Billy-Jo had a double mastectomy in January after years of binding his 32C boobs and is booked in for his first 'lower-half' operation later this year. But the skin for his new penis will have to come from his forearm, which is currently covered in a ten inch black tribal tattoo.
