I yam wot I yam (Popeye)
This story comes from Canada, but is well worth telling. A man bought a new car and asked for an insurance quite. He was quoted some £2,600. Just out of interest, he asked what the quote would have if he were a woman. Answer £2,000. So - as you can do these days - he decided to officially identify as a woman. Got a new birth certificate and everything, and saved himself some £600 a year. It would be interesting to see what attitude the insurance company might take if he/she had an accident and put in a claim, but it's an interesting slant on this modern idea of gender re-identification.
