77 Year Old Navy Veteran Has Sex Change
"At age 77, Richard Ramsey is likely among the oldest people in the U.S. to undergo a sex-change operation.

In June, 77-year-old Richard Ramsey became Renee Ramsey. She's pictured here in her New Jersey home in October. Ramsey is likely the oldest person in the U.S. to have surgery to change genders, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported.
Ramsey, who's one of about 700,000 people in the U.S. who would describe themselves as transgendered, says she knew from the time she was a child that she was "different" -- but went on to marry twice and have four children, the paper said.
"Now, the hardest thing I have to do is learn to be a lady," Ramsey said. "When I get angry at someone, I have to practice acting like a lady instead of sounding off like I used to do.""
