Description
Ewan Forbes was born to a wealthy, landowning family, holders of a baronetcy, in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, in 1912. Assigned female at birth, his true identity was nevertheless clear even in childhood, and so, with the support of his mother, he was taken to European specialists and eventually treated with early preparations of synthetic testosterone. Raised as a boy at home but socially obliged to present himself as a girl in public until his official coming out to the Queen, Ewan grew up, became a doctor, and got married. For decades, he lived a quiet life as a husband, doctor, and a pillar of the local community. But in 1965, Ewan's older brother died unexpectedly, meaning that Ewan was set to inherit the baronetcy. His title could only be inherited by the next oldest man in the family and when his cousin John, spurred on by Ewan's sister, contested the inheritance he was forced to defend his male status in Scotland's supreme civil court, where he prevailed.
