Nicole Kidman is a Danish Transsexual

Nicole Kidman is a Danish Transsexual

Classic-in-black Nicole Kidman arrives back to her New York City hotel on Sunday afternoon.

The 41-year-old Aussie actress has signed on to play the world’s first post-op TRANSSEXUAL, married to Charlize Theron.

According to THR, Nic will star in and produce The Danish Girl, based on the true story of Danish artists Einar and Greta Wegener. Their marriage took a sharp left turn after Einar (Kidman) stood in for a female model that Greta (Theron) was set to paint.

When their portraits become wildly popular in 1920s Copenhagen, Greta encouraged her husband to adopt the female guise. What began as a harmless game led Einar to a metamorphosis and landmark 1931 operation that shocked the world and threatened their love.

This movie is going to be ca-raaaaaazy!

They should have a transsexual play a transsexual. A little more accurate, don’t you think?

OmG hahah this will be her best role ever. I always thought she was hermaphrodite.

Why did you capitalise ‘TRANSSEXUAL’? Haha.

Anyway, I’m sure they didn’t pick a male actor for the role because they, of course, want to be controversial!

#9, I heard that, too. That explains why she has a lot of hit-and-misses. She probably picks roles that sound good, but when it comes to filming, she probably notices that the scripts lack any substance! She’s had a lot of (critical) hits, however.

This made me curious, so I just quickly looked up Einar Wegener in Google:

“Lily Elbe Denmark
Artist
Underwent early form of SRS in 1930
1886-1931

Einar Wegener was a Danish artist who longed to be a woman, and she persuaded a surgeon to make her physically a woman. In 1930, in Berlin she underwent the transformative surgery–sexual reassignment surgery (SRS), we call it today. It wasn’t enough. Lily wanted to be able to have children. A surgeon apparently believed it possible. It was rumoured she had ovarian and uterine tissue implanted. This proved to be fatal and she died shortly afterwards.”

THR’s take on it is a bit different, isn’t it?

Lili Elbe
1886 – 1931

Lili Elbe, born Einar Wegener in 1886, began part time transition while living with her life long companion Gerda Wegener in the ‘teens, and had surgery and full time transition in early 1930. Her marriage to Gerda was invalidated by the King of Denmark in October of 1930.

Outed in the press, she may have faked her death in 1931, or may have really died months after her fifth operation, an operation that she hoped would allow her to have intercourse with the man to whom she was engaged to be married… Her story is told in frank and loving terms in her book, Man Into Woman, edited by Niels Hoyer, 1933.

Both Lili and her partner, and legal wife before her surgery, Gerda Wegener, were well known painters and illustrators. But Gerda had far better commercial success and is still recognized today as one of the leading Art Deco artists of the early twentieth century.

Lili was one of Gerda’s favorite models, wearing women’s high fashion or nude. As a fashion designer in Paris, Gerda was influential in setting fashion trends. It is amusing to consider that the 1920′s small breasted feminine ideal may have been influenced by Lili’s figure.
