As a kid of 10, I remember my parents whispering and commenting on this phenomenon being revealed in the news. Had no idea, so asked my Mom, who briefly (very) explained the differences between men and women being, errr, exploited, I guess. Over the years my memory of it faded as far more important things took over. Tonight the name popped into my head. Why? Imponderable. Here's the story: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christine_Jorgensen Anyone recall the furor which ensued from this news revelation? Religious repercussions, predictions of eternal hell, bar it from children's eyes, etc. Tonight for the first time I looked it all over. Balderdash. Why is this newsworthy? Frank
I do recall something briefly, but I was most likely busy doing what boys do when all this was going on... I was only about 10 years old at the time...
