Francis, born Francisco García Escalante, (April 6, 1958 – October 10, 2007) was a Mexican transvestite who was a famous actor and designer. Francis' birth name is Francisco, but she was better known plainly as Francis. It is unclear whether she actually had a sex change operation. In a sketch from the Mexican show, "Desde Gayola", she clearly states that rather than getting a sex change to cut "it" off, she prefers to enlarge "it," because it has become more popular for women to have a penis.
