I have seen the one on the left described as a boy not a lady! Hence the white tunic and cloak. So I would keep quiet about that one if I were you :wink: .
Nah, clearly her parents WANTED her to be a boy. Just put her in a white tunic and a cloak and then keep denying she's a girl. Ah, I've known worse parents... Big Grin

Hey, I'm easy. :wink:
