One day not long ago, Scott Turner Schofield stopped into an Army recruiting station to hear the pitch.
"Why should I enlist?" he asked the soldier on duty. "I want to be a better man. I want to be all that I can be, and the Army says I can do that. How is that going to happen?"
Schofield, an Atlanta-based actor and performance artist formerly known as Kt Kilborn, chatted with the recruiter for a bit, then said, "OK, well here's this one thing, and you're going to think it's a joke, but it's not. I was born female. But you didn't know that the whole time, right? And you think I'm a guy, right? So can I still be in the Army?"

Underground Transit. (If you've ever seen it, I caujght the bra. LOL) If
Becoming a Man in 127 Easy Steps is anywhere near as good, it's a must see!!!!
