TO GO WITH AFP FEATURE LIFESTYLE-IRAN-TRANSSEXUALS: Fourty-two-year-old Iranian transsexual Mary (R), who has become a woman after a sex change operaetion two ears ago, listens to Dr. Bahram Mir-Jalali as she visits his clinic in Tehran with a friend (L), 17 August 2004. Mary was a truck driver when she was a male. Transsexuals face rejection and mockery in whatever state of gender they are in, and more often than not are simply branded homosexual -- a criminal offence in Iran where the law allows for persistent offenders to be punished with death. But perhaps surprisingly in the Islamic republic, there now exists an accepted and religiously approved procedure for those wanting to change their sex. Mir-Jalali, 65, has performed over the past 20 years some 210 sex change operations. AFP PHOTO/Behrouz MEHRI
