EDINBURGH, Scotland — A leading Scottish bank is to allow transvestites to use two of its new high-security check cashing cards--one with a photo of them dressed as a man and the other as a woman.
“If any cross-dressing customers are confident enough to go shopping dressed as a woman, it’s possible for them to have a second card so that they can avoid embarrassment or difficulties when paying by check,” a Royal Bank of Scotland spokesman said.

The Royal Bank claims its pioneering introduction of cards carrying a photograph of the account holder has cut check fraud dramatically.
