New Delhi, May 21 : A Chinese couple, who fell in love with each other a year ago, have decided to get a sex change operation before they marry.

The two, both 23, from Yichang, Hubei province, plan to get several operations done, as the woman wants to become a man, and the man wants to become a woman, reports the China Daily.

The woman said that she wanted the sex change because she looked like a boy when she was a kid, while the man wanted it because his nature is calm like a woman's.

A hospital has said that the sex change surgeries for both will be completed in two years. (ANI)
