Claudia Sabine Meier, born in Bern as Andreas Heribert, is the proud male descendant and heir of parents Anni and Heribert. For over 40 years, she tried to meet the expectations of her family and surroundings. The author knew from early childhood that the male role assigned to her did not fit. This led to decades of living a double life as Claudia, the woman she always felt she was meant to be. She served in the military and did everything to be perceived as male, got married, had a daughter, and dutifully took over the family business. With healthy self-irony, humor, and depth, she writes about her tumultuous life and her ongoing struggle for a simpler path for transgender individuals.
