Read what kelly has been going through after spending so much to change gender from male to female.
In the wake of spending an
amazing £180k on surgery to wind up distinctly an attractive lady, Kelly Star
says she is battling to make men consider her to be more than only an
indulgence. The transgender Model, Kelly, from Perth, Australia has been single
for over 12 years after her last relationship finished in 2005.
Since transitioning 30 years back
Kelly has experienced 127 operations to change her appearance, including 19
operations on her breasts, going from glass measure 32C to a 32K.
Despite the fact that she is battling
to discover the affection for her life, the 46-year-old says her well-proportioned
figure-which she displayed on any semblance of Elle MacPherson and Gisele
Bundchen-implies she is never shy of male consideration.
Kelly, who was 20-years of age
when she experienced sex reassignment surgery, 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.
"It's hard to find a man who
is willing to tell their mates and family that they have a trans-partner, and I
think that's the last barrier to trans-women being accepted.
"I think it takes a very
strong man to openly date a trans-woman, because they do get a lot of stick
from others, and I think that comes from the way we have been presented in the
media.
"When attitudes to dating
improve, that's going to really help transgender people."
Kelly's says her ex-partner's
family only discovered she was a trans-woman when the couple broke up.
The model, who has spent over
£100k on operations on her breasts, says: "Me and my ex were together from
2000, but most of his friends and all of his family only discovered I was a
trans-woman when we broke up.
"At the time, I think I was
happy not to have to explain my past and enjoyed the experience, to an extent.
It's what I thought I wanted.
"But in time I grew more
confident in myself and realised that it wasn't an ideal situation worrying
about who might reveal my past or who may already know.
"In essence, I felt
repressed."
Kelly was originally born a boy
named Michael, Kelly was the youngest of six siblings. And was raised by
parents, Paul and Sonia, now 81 and 79, and attended a Catholic school.
Kelly has gone under the knife in
the UK, America, Thailand, Malaysia and Australia in her quest to obtain her
dream body, saying: "The look I've wanted has been hard to achieve.
"It's taken over twenty
years and I've had at least 127 surgeries.
"Sometimes surgeries haven't
gone to plan or as well as I hoped, so there have been some setbacks.
"Over the last 28 years,
I've had 19 operations on my breasts, as I've increased my cup size from a 32C
to a 32K.
"While most of the
operations went well, a couple of overseas procedures were botched, which meant
I had to spend money to correct it in Australia."
