Boucher was born a boy, but raised at first as a girl, in San Diego.
"My mother always wanted a girl," she said. "That's why she named me
Gwen." Her family moved to Portland shortly after her fourth birthday.
It was here that she says her stepfather abused her. By the age of 5,
Boucher finally got beaten into step with the gender she was born
with. "He said he was going to beat the woman out of me," she said.
