"To the outside world, Jamie was male. On the inside, it was a different story.

``To be honest, I thought everyone felt like I did,'' Jamie recalled.

``I thought everybody just had a major issue identifying with their gender and with sort of the body that they were in, and everybody was sort of dealing with it, so I didn't think I was different that way.''

Now 26, Jamie identifies as female. But the road towards living as a woman wasn't an easy one.
