I'm guessing the guy that finds out the hard way will care. Remember, kids, always look for the Adam's Apple. :oops:

And why the first one was ripped from some story some lady wrote some time before the movie came out.

An Adams apple is no indication of sex.

The best way *used* to be to check for a brow ridge under the eye-brow - that's a uniquely male trait. But the surgeons tend to file these down to nothing when they do a sex-change these days.

Best bet is to know some history about your partners.

Excess scar tissue is also a dead give-a-way. ;)

bash doesn't that article confirm it's "RUMOUR" status?

still, i guess it's cool if it's true. *shrugs*
gender/sexuality issues are pretty interesting, when i found out someone i knew online was a hermaphrodite it really got me thinking about the morality of the whole thing.

Actually I only posted that site because it has pics of him as both male and in drag. Other sites I've read indicated it was more than rumor at this point. In other words, the part where I say *It's true* is not related to the link as a method to bolster that claim. The link is almost a year old. Either way, I don't care.

LMAO. I don't buy this. not even for a second.

hell I don't even know if the source is credible.

snopes.com says nothing yet.

in that pic, if it's real, he's got earings.
big woop.

this rumor so far has the credibility of a woman's magazine or a british tabloid.

Heh, why are you guys so threatened by it? As was mentioned, and I agree, the second two movies were crap anyway. Do you really have so much tied up in the Matrix Trilogy that it scares you to think one of its creators could be a flaming queen?

btw, roid, it's more than just earings. He's dressed as a woman, his eyebrows are tweezed and he's wearing make-up. He's also reportedly been taking female hormones for quite some time to soften his skin and grow breasts. Why is it so hard to believe? Especially since this is rather old news and there's never been a denial issued.

it's hard to believe because this is the first time i've heard of a celebrity having a sex change operation, AFTER the events that made them famous.
it just seems very strange.

and these kinds of allegations are just the kindof amazingly unbelieveable lies that tabloids are known for running with. i sense a sort of "april fools joke" aura in it (because of what i mentioned in teh previous paragraph). this is the first i've heard of this story.

but if it is all true, good on him. i'd like to hear him talk about it

Well, that's sort of the rub. He doesn't want to be a famous transsexual, he wants to be regarded as a woman. If everyone knows he used to be a man, my guess is that sorta ruins the whole thing. He will never be treated as a woman but rather as a man who had his willy whacked. :oops:

I dont get why anone would want to have their willy weed whacked.

Back on topic: if it's too good to be true, it probably is.
