Man Quits Army And Becomes Woman

Clearly, he didn’t just do this to be with a lesbian. He probably has been wearing his mother’s heels and lipstick since age 5.

According to Mail Online

A former military sniper has quit the U.S. army and moved to Britain where she lives as a woman with her lesbian lover.

Former-squaddie Charles Pontiero, 40, is saving up for sex-change surgery after settling down in Coventry, West Midlands, with girlfriend Maria.

After meeting student Maria, 29, online, Charles changed her name by deed poll to Alessia – and swapped a life in the army for a job as an actress.

The blonde claims that she’s finally decided to make the change and live openly as a woman

in the UK because it’s easier to change sex in Britain than the U.S.

Alessia, who has married three times and has two teenage children, said: ‘I always felt more like a girl than a boy, but I felt like I had to hide my female side when I was in the army.

‘I didn’t feel like I was really being myself.

You have to be happy being who you are.

‘My family have a military background, so it felt like it was always the thing that I was going to do – but it wasn’t right for me.

‘My family have always known that I feel more woman than man, so there were no surprises when I told them that I wanted to live as a woman.

‘They are all very supportive of me – and I’m finally happy now I’ve changed my name and found

Maria.

‘I’ve always wanted to change my name, but it was only when I moved to Britain that I realized how

easy it is to change your name here – so I just decided to do it.

‘My hormones are so imbalanced that I don’t actually need to take hormone replacement drugs as

part of my gender change, my body just produces them naturally.

‘I had to disguise who I was when I was in the army. I was a good soldier though.

‘I’m just glad to be finally living the life that I was supposed to.

No wonder he kept getting married and it never worked out. Dude wanted to wear their Maxi pads and stilettos.
