Meet the boy who was a girl who fell in love with a girl who was a boy

LONDON: Teenagers Arin Andrews and Katie Hill might look like any other young couple, but they were not always like that.

Just two years ago, Andrews was a girl named Emerald and Hill was a boy called Luke and they have both undergone surgical procedures to change their sex, Sun reported.

Just over a year ago Hill, 19, a university student, had gender reassignment operation.

Andrews, 17, who got his breasts removed in June, told the publication that he hated his breasts and always felt like they didn't belong.

He asserted that now he finally feels comfortable in his own body.

He said that now when he is out in a public pool or lifting weights, no one raises an eyebrow.

Andrews, who is still in school, insisted that he could wear a tank top, which he couldn't before, and he can go swimming shirtless and just be a regular guy.

Andrews added to the tabloid that he feels lucky to have his family and Hill to rely on.

The couple met almost two years ago at a support group for transgender teenagers and bonded through their shared experiences.




One Year old Buys a Car using father's smartphone

A one-year-old girl in the US has bought a car through online trading, while playing on the mobile phone of her dad, who has decided to keep the "purchase".

Paul Stoute from Portland, Oregon, said he got a notice from eBay congratulating him on his purchase of 225 dollars. He was the proud owner of a 1962 Austin-Healey Sprite.

To Mr Stoute's astonishment, he had not made the purchase. After verifying the purchase, he realised that his young daughter, who really enjoys playing with his smartphone, had logged into the eBay app which can be used to instantly make a purchase.

  
"Tap, tap, tap and now I own a car," Mr Stoute was quoted by KPTV as saying.

Mr Stoute had been looking at cars on eBay with the idea of tackling a rebuilding project with a friend.

"Fortunately, she didn't buy the 38,000-dollar Porsche," he said.

Also fortunate is that the Sprite was located in Tualatin. It's now being stored in Milwaukie and is very much a fixer-upper. The eBay ad listed it as a "Frankensprite."

"It comes with two engines," said Christina Stoute, Sorella's mother. "They're both in the back seat."

The couple now hopes to take the eBay mistake and turn it into a very memorable gift.

Paul Stoute said his goal is to fix it up in time to present it to his daughter for either her 16th birthday or high school graduation.

In the meantime, they have added password protection to their phones, and uninstalled any apps that can be used to make a purchase.

"It cannot happen again," Christina Stoute said, laughing.
