I never thought of it that way...

This yuletide fanfic depicts Rachel of the Animorphs as transgendered. While reading it in the universe of the short fan piece it made a sense of sorts, but I don't think that it really makes cohesive sense to the storyline with the other glimpses we get into Rachel's life. Then it poses the question that because Rachel is the epitomie of a fierce, warrior female (with her despised nickname being Xena) does it therefore make her masculine? Is she destined to be a male in her next lifetime because of her personality or does that mean she is just a strong girl?

Note: Fanfic piece has spoilers about the ending of the series. Do not read if you wish to read the Animorphs series.
