"Asbo breach for dressing as a girl"

Printer-friendly version

Headlines can give such a misleading idea.

The one in the subject was the headline I saw on the Telegraph's front page. Which got me thinking, indignantly, since when are they handing out asbos for crossdressing?

So I clicked on the link. The slightly longer headline on the page itself now said:

"Man 'breached Asbo by dressing as a schoolgirl'"

Hmm, ok, dressing as a schoolgirl a bit... Read on...

Turns out this is a 60 year old man hanging around primary schools dressed as a schoolgirl... Okaaaay, we're getting closer to the story now, and close enough, methinks...

It's a shame though, that the distinction will probably miss most people, between a sane crossdresser and a nutter who's nutteriness involves crossdressing...
