You're being sarcastic, but that's not really far from the truth. The hormones she's on are like pregnancy, trying to conceive, and pms all rolled into one, with mood swings that will hit without warning or reason. That's not excusing her, only explaining it.
It's why I question the wisdom of her being in there at all at this point in her transition.
I have never bought his transgender persona, something is not ringing true with him + this is no disrespect for trans cos my nephew is in the prosess of changing so I do have an insite into this.

All very good points.
I would also say that women are also capable of threatening violence it is not exclusive to men.

This point?
Are all transfolk this nasty and aggressive after two years into the process?

Not 24/7, but yes, ANYONE who undergoes hormone therapy for any reason will have long stretches of uncontrollable emotion. The mix that gets used for this particular reason is especially nasty in that respect.
Luke A had them, too, and talked about it after the final, but they edited around it during the show.

I believe and I am not expert Blackberry Girl that in order to get gender reassignment treatment you have to live two years as a woman before any medical activity takes place. So it is possible that the hormone treatment has only recently started.
I am not sure if this is about getting NHS treatment or is part of the process of making sure the person really does want to make the life changing and irreversible decision.

I remember that.
I recall him talking about how he'd be just before getting his testosterone injection and how he'd be right after it.

I read earlier that Kellie has not yet started hormone therapy. He's been counselled and advised for the past year by a support organisation called TG.
Yet Kellie has stated that he will have his surgery later this year!

The hormones she would be taking would be estrogen though which most certainly not make someone aggressive and confrontational......mood swings and being over emotional certainly but they would not make the person want to start throwing punches. It's actually the male hormone testosterone that would make someone aggressive and potentially even violent.
Leslie was aggressively standing over Kellie though, he snarled up his face up and started jabbing his pointed finger towards Kellie's face from the step above.

I posted to the same effect, earlier. Female hormones would be more likely to inhibit aggression than to ignite it. Testosterone, yes! Maybe he's on steroids LOL.

Leslie is about six inches shorter than Kellie. Were this not so Tough Guy Frank would have passed by on the other side.

Indeed, estrogen would be much more likely to give a person female traits such as being weepy or over emotional as well as mood swings.
Anyone would think Kellie was pumping herself full of testosterone

I hope James points at Kellie then.

LOL reminds me of the funniest scene from UBB. Nicky talking to Brian about Nadia.
