Former world surfing champion Peter Drouyn has revealed his plan to have a sex change operation, saying male hormones have been draining from his body for the past eight years.
“It hasn’t been intentional. It’s totally natural, with no medication or hormone therapies, no enhancements and no advice. It’s just happening,” Peter claims.
The 58-year-old Australian says he has always felt like a woman trapped in a man’s body.
“I have more a woman’s emotional and physical make-up, except for one difference – I was born with a male appendage. It’s that simple,” he said. “My body is finally delivering the truth.”
Drouyn won numerous events through the 1960s and early ‘70s, and in 1977 devised the man-on man heat system where just two surfers compete in each heat (where before four or even six was normal). The man-on-man system is still used in ASP World Tour contests today.
