A trans woman in France has won election in her local communinty to become the country's first transgender elected personality.
The council in Tilloy-lez-Marchiennes in northeastern France chosed Marie Cau as new mayor.
Speaking to the news agency, Ms Cau said she was "not an activist" and wanted to focus on municipal politics.
"People did not elect me because I was or was not transgender, they elected a programme," Ms Cau said. "That's what's interesting: when things become normal, you don't get singled out."
