Dufalumpus Award for having a death wish
Most Brits are tired of being made to wait by the NHS but few are moved to mutilate our own genetalia. However, Howard Shelley, 42, from Buckinghamshire, UK, waited until his wife was out before castrating himself with a kitchen knife in their loo, according to The Sun.
Before the NHS will perform any gender reassignment surgery, patients are required to live for a minimum of two years as their alternative gender. It would seem that Howard could not handle the wait when he researched how to perform a home castration, on the internet.
After what he described as an agonising six minutes, Howard apparently dropped his severed appendages into the bin and drove five miles to his GP where he explained what he had done. Miraculously, Howard (now known as Holli) was back at work as the managing director of a women's only building firm, within three days.
Still getting used to her new gender identity Holli told reporters "I’m the sort of guy who, when I make up my mind to do something, wants it done there and then."
Holli is reported to feel satisfied with the surgery which allowed her to feel "All woman" but wife, Janet, is apparently angry about the extreme action.
