A woman darts player has been thrown out of her ladies’ league — because she used to be a man.
Christine Makin, formerly Clive, had to quit her pub team after 17 out of 25 rival sides protested.
She revealed she was cruelly taunted during games, with opponents shouting: “You can’t play because you’re not womanly enough.”
Christine, 51, was married for 13 years as a man but became a woman through a series of sex-change operations.
Christine was turfed out for the 2006/7 season under Rule 35, which states: “Under no circumstances can any person of any gender play in the league unless that person was born a female.”
In other sex-change related news, it seems that anglers are more tolerant of someone who has lost their rod.
