The story of Faris is certainly one that sticks out in my mind in my younger years. Born to a king as a Princess, lost at sea when only five years old, and taken in by pirates! However the most interesting fact is our young Faris lived as a male. There are many different speculations as to why Faris lived as a male. Did the pirates find a young girl and decide that she would only survive if presented as male? Did Faris decide that the only way to make it as a pirate was to be male? Was Faris truly transgender (even after discovered Faris would still oftern refer to theirself with masculine vocabulary)? I always believed that Faris feared for her life with the pirates and could only be safe living as a "strong male" and thus took over the pirates thus proving that, in fact, females are strong and POWERFUL!
