Yvonne has always been real tomboy. She doesn't care for girly stuff and likes to give herself boy names. When she hits puberty she realizes: She loves girls, but does not feel like a lesbian but rather that she is living in the wrong body.
It takes another five years before Yvonne embarks on the long and painful path of transitioning. After hormone treatment and 14 operations, Benjamin "Ben" Melzer arrives in his own true life. He now uses his athletic talent as a fitness coach and model.
