Role play: why girls will be boys

Article Abstract:

Female androgyne is the subject of a novel entitled The Changeling which has been written by Alison MacLeod and is based on a true story which has been supplemented by MacLeod's research.

Female impersonators are not often seen, although many have been sighted in the media during MacLeod's research.
