| Abstract
|
:
|
"Chris Beck played high school football. He bought a motorcycle, much to his mothers dismay, at age 17. He grew up to become a U.S. Navy SEAL, serving our country for twenty years on thirteen deployments, including seven combat deployments, and ultimately earned a Purple Heart and the Bronze Star. To everyone who saw him, he was a hero. A warrior. A man. But underneath his burly beard, Chris had a secret, one that had been buried deep inside his heart since he was a little boy-one as hidden as the pantyhose in the back of his drawer. He was transgender, and the woman inside needed to get out. This is the journey of a girl in a mans body and her road to self-actualization as a woman amidst the PTSD of war, family rejection and our society's strict gender rules and perceptions ..."--Jacket.
