Frank Maloney sex change
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure
Re: Frank Maloney sex change
I guess good luck to him/her
Re: Frank Maloney sex change
Completely unexpected.
Must be awful to be born into a body that you feel you don't belong in. Hope she's happy going forward.

Footballers spend 90 minutes pretending they're injured. Rugby League players spend 80 minutes pretending they're not.

I was shocked when I read it to be honest. It is impossible to understand but I was perplexed as to why somebody who feels female wanted to become part of an incredibly masculine sport like boxing.yokozuna wrote:Completely unexpected.

I'd class football as a masculine game since they stopped slipping the tongue after a goal was scored. With that, Karen Brady hasn't caught much harm!cpwigan wrote:I was shocked when I read it to be honest.

Re: Frank Maloney sex change
Very brave to come out and admit it to the world..my only question is why now after all this time? This is not a criticism of the man by the way. Just wondering why he waited so long.It's rather like Chris from England's butchers on Pemberton.
Re: Frank Maloney sex change
I presume he has reached an age where he has sufficient wealth and little day to day involvement in business for those two things to be adversely affected. I am not sure a sex change Frank could have been actively involved in the sport of boxing.the winky one wrote:Very brave to come out and admit it to the world..my only question is why now after all this time?
