Nigerian transgender, Miss Iris Sahhara during the Q&A session of the World Transgender pageant she eventually won said she used to wear her mum's high heels & dresses. That she would dance around in them when she was younger, imagining herself as a beauty queen. Here's what Miss Sahhara said when she was asked:
What is the proudest moment of your life so far and why?
The proudest
moment of my life is being on this stage right now. Because when I was
growing up, I had this dream of becoming somebody like going on stage
and performing. I watch Miss Universe,
Miss World
but I couldn't because I was born male. But I used to wear my mum's high
heels and dress up in her outfits and pretend in front of the mirror
that I'm one of the contestants. So being here today and having this
opportunity to do this as a glamorous woman with lovely makeup and
lovely dresses is a dream come true.
This is
something young male kids do today and most times, we laugh over it and
even admire them. Some mothers on their own, dress their sons as baby
girls at times. So, do you think we should be worried now if our male
kids love wearing our high heels? lol. This is a serious question
though. What do you think? Watch Sahhara's interview below -
