Confusing?

A man, dressed as a woman, was barred from entering an Australian bar . . . even though it's a transvestite-themed bar:

Paul Hurst lives much of his life as a woman.

For years the transvestite has been known to friends and those who have seen him perform in Darlinghurst clubs as Anne-Maree.

Dressed in one of his best frocks, Mr Hurst was photographed partying with Maria Venuti at the launch of Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert at Star City's Lyric Theatre.

So much did he enjoy the event that a month later he and a friend again frocked up for a night out the casino's new spin-off bar, Priscilla's.

The cross-dressing staff serve cocktails in a flurry of sequins and feathers.

But Mr Hurst was shocked to discover that a security guard had deemed him to be a "man" and "inappropriately dressed" when he was refused entry to the casino at 9.15 on the night of November 1, 2006.

The inevitable Fark thread, where the troglodytes and the trolls play.
