Hermaphrodite Jorge Juarez-Bagdigian

Labels belong on clothes. They shouldn't be used to identify people like me. Archie's the name. This is my story. Life is hard enough without being cursed with two genders and trying to fit in. Trust me, you don't have to be a certain height to go on this roller coaster ride with me. What roller coaster, you might ask? One that includes emerging sexuality, secret crushes, sexual mishaps, heartaches, independence, friendship, and ultimately love and acceptance of one's self. Can you believe this all started with a high school crush? This, however, isn't your typical coming of age story.
