Charli never saw herself as a boy.  She was a girl!  Who was silly enough to think otherwise?  Well, her family did and so did everyone else in town!  Being forced to behave as a boy sucked-–especially when the puberty years came along, and she was VERY unhappy with how her body began changing.  Her outlook soured,  she lost her humor, and her only interest was computers–THEY never laughed at her or called her BOY!  Then, one day, she bought a dress online, hoping to sneak it past her family.  That failed HORRIBLY!  And as her father held up the dress and demanded an explanation, how she responded wasn’t the way her parents expected.  Charli was tired of being held back–of dealing with all the thorns in hir garden of life, and she was going to be HER!
