Summary
Describes the traumatic life of Canadian David Reimer, who was born an identical twin in 1965. After a botched circumcision left him without a penis, he was castrated, raised as a girl, given hormones, and falsely publicized as a great… success. Miserable at fourteen, David reverted to being male. Some strong language. Co-winner of the 2002 CNIB Torgi Award. 2000.
