Opis

A woman with the complete form of Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome might never discover that she has testes in her abdomen rather than ovaries and uterus. Daniele knows, and she grieves that she can never have her own children. She has a partial form of AIS that left her with ambiguous genitals, a steady stream of doctors and psychologists, and parents determined to see her happy as a girl. After Melanie agrees to have a baby for her, Daniele learns that the clinic can extract sperm from her own gonadal biopsies, and she becomes the biological father herself. Ethan adores the graceful young woman named Daniele, while Melanie imagines a life with the father of her children. Daniele? She's happy with her intersex body-somewhere between princess and little boy. But in a black and white world, she must choose-once and for all-who she will be. And whom she will love."
