Chaz Bono talks about the sex-change process
Chaz Bono – the daughter-turned-son of singer Cher – has opened up about his changing sex.
Chaz, born Chastity, said he finally feels like a man after gender-realignment procedures.
He said: “[I'm] still not anywhere near what I will look like, but really, for the first time, I am feeling much more comfortable with how I look physically.”
He told a US television show: “It lowered my voice. Fat redistributes, muscle growth, hair growth, sex drive increases.”
Chaz began the process to become a man in March.
In the Entertainment Tonight interview, which airs on Thursday and Friday in the States, Chaz adds: “I always felt male from the time I was a child. There wasn’t much feminine about me.
“I believe that gender is something between your ears, not between your legs. “That is something I discovered in the early 1990s.
“It was just a long process of being comfortable enough to do something about it.”
He added: “I was turning 40 and I thought it’s now or never. I want to still feel vibrant and be able to enjoy my life in a male body and not wait until I am an old man.
“It’s a long process going back almost a decade. I got clean and sober in 2004 and I couldn’t have done this before that.”
Chaz, Cher’s only child with Sonny Bono, was born in March 1969.
Cher, 63, is said to fully support the decision by Chaz to change sex.
