Secret For Dan
 
Quote:

DAVINA McCall only planned to tell Dan about Nadia's sex-swap last night.

The Big Brother host stopped telling evictees about their housemate's secret after complaints from transsexuals.

But she thinks Dan deserves to know as he and favourite Nadia, 27, are so pally.

On Radio1 yesterday, breakfast show DJ Chris Moyles asked: 'Why have you stopped telling house mates Nadia was a man? That was the best bit.'

She replied: 'I have had a lot of complaints. It was insensitive to transgender people to put it how I did and I'm sorry for that.

'The way Nadia would see it is that she was not a man and has never been a man.

'She is a woman born into a man's body.

'I won't be telling the other housemates - although I think I will have to break it to Dan as they have been so close in the house.'

I couldn't see a problem with it... after all with it all over the press the other house mates would have found out in hours of leaving the interview.

If any thing the people that were insensitive to transgender people where the press.... with headlines like "You the man (Er ... sorry Nads, you the woman)"

I bet that upset a lot of people. :rolleyes:

It's probably non-transgender people obsessed with political correctness that complained.
