More information is flowing in about Tom Gabel Sex Change:
From her first childhood realizations that she was uncomfortable in her male body — she has early memories of watching Madonna on TV and fantasizing about being her, and says she played with Barbies — to her teenage years in Florida, where she kept her secret hidden and felt ashamed, telling writer Josh Eells that she would often pray to God, asking, “Dear God, when I wake up, I want a female body.”
And when that didn’t work, she’d try pleading with the devil, saying, “I promise to spend the rest of my life as a serial killer if you turn me into a woman.”
I’m pretty sure Tom was only joking about the serial killer bit, but the MTV article fails to generate any laughs.
