They Called Me a Rapist Until I Showed My ID

Synopsis

My name was Jordan Carter, and I was a woman. Gloria Grant from the apartment below me took me to court and accused me of assaulting her daughter. The whole complex called me an animal, and the local news ran the story of the sick male piano teacher. On the day of the hearing, I stood at the defense table and listened to their lawyer describe how I had violated a nineteen-year-old girl. The judge asked if I had anything to say in my defense. I held up my driver's license. "Your Honor, I'm a woman." The courtroom fell silent for three seconds, and then the opposing lawyer's pen clattered to the floor.
