Apparently some days ago, a couple of drunken yahoo's in Swansea, Wales decided that it was just the sort of night to attack people weaker than them. People who were different. People who might be easily intimidated.
So they attacked a pair of transvestites who were walking down the street together.
Bad move.
Bad, bad move.
Because you see, the transvestites were actually cage fighters, dressed up for a stag party (bachelor party) in dresses and heels. Cage fighters who proceeded to give the asshats a swift but thorough beatdown and then wander off in their high heels with nary a scratch on them and only a dropped clutch purse to retrieve. And it was, being the UK and a busy urban street, all caught on CCTV for the world to see.
The only way that this could have been better would be if the transvestites had just been regular old transvestites. Still, perhaps these idiots will think twice before picking on those they consider weird. Perhaps other idiots will also give it a second thought (one can hope). My big hope actually is for the cage fighters. I hope they have been given a good glimpse of the sort of things that people in the GLBT community have to deal with all the time, and perhaps it will make them more likely to defend others. Maybe they'll even teach a "self defense in heels" course?
