Hopeful future for trans athletes

Kristen Worley, a 2008 Olympic hopeful in cycling, has a secret. But now, with great anxiety, she’s divulging it. A few years ago, the Canadian had sex-change surgery to change her gender from male to female. With the help of a steady regimen of estrogen, Worley looks female, sounds female and, to anybody who didn’t know her before, is female. If Worley competes in the Beijing Games in 2008, it will be a milestone in Olympics history. There have been rumors of transsexual athletes participating in the Games, but none has ever come forward.
