A few weeks ago, I talked to a Kuwaiti transsexual who agreed to be interviewed for this website. Now that we?re done with the process it?s time for us to share the result! So, below you will find an interview with a transsexual in the Gulf, something you never see in the Arab (or regional) media.
Note: I know it?s intense, but PLEASE be respectful in your comments. Anything insulting or harsh will immediately be moderated.
Q: Firstly, what does it mean to be a transsexual?
A: I don?t even know. I am what I am and yet this is what you call me.
Q: What else can I call you?
A: My name is Alia, can?t you just treat me normally and call me by my name?
