Description
Born as a woman, she disguised herself as General Tito Anibal da Paixao Gomes in the Portuguese army for twenty years. The role started out with a costume party in 1974, but she continued to play the role until 1992 when the disguise was discovered, despite having a female live-in companion for fifteen years. During her court trial, she continued to dress as a man.
