I have a young prince who has been raised as a princess. Absolutely, totally cut off, for his own safety. His attendant maid is also a man in a dress. He believes everyone has penises and shaves, but the shape of the clothing is what distinguishes men and women.
He's been kept very naive, on purpose.
Is it possible to convince him that he is indeed a woman?
Would biology win out over conditioning since infancy?
After the actual differences in men and women are made clear, would he accept being male, or continue as female? Or a mixture of the two?
This is my first time working with a character like this. I've had cross-dressers for professional reasons, but none who has been dressed in the clothing of the opposite sex and told he was a woman since birth.
