Funny, really, making so much kerfuffle about a transvestite. I mean, it's not as if Sydney has any lack of them.

OK, so a transvestite artist who is a Commander of the British Empire and has just been named Chancellor of the University of the Arts London, that's new. A six foot-something Englishman in a babydoll dress who holds a coveted Turner Prize and is known the world over for works with pretty titles like Cuddly Toys Caught on Barbed Wire or We've Found the Body of Your Child. That, I'll admit, is intriguing.
