Chinese transsexual barred from Miss Universe pageant

BEIJING (AFP) - A Chinese transsexual has been barred from competing in the 2004 Miss Universe (news - web sites) competition because she was born a man, organisers said.

Chen Lili, a 24-year-old fashion model from China's southwestern Sichuan province, would have been the first transgender woman to vie for the title.
