GirlInside joined AVEN in October 2007. She was told about it by her best friend, who in turn heard about it from another friend. (For convenience, GirlInside will be addressed using feminine pronouns; as her username implies, she considers herself a woman in a man's body.) She is what's commonly known as a "gray asexual" or "Grey-A;" that is, she could enjoy sex under the right circumstances, but does not consider it worth the trouble of going through the dating game, especially in the male role. As she expresses it, "I don't want to be someone's boyfriend; I want to be someone's girlfriend." She is open to a relationship with a person of any gender in which she can have the female role.

GirlInside is best known for her website: Boy On The Outside, Girl On The Inside, a very informative site about transgender topics with a special emphasis on the topic of being transgendered and not changing one's body. She created it after searching for transgender information and finding almost nothing about the many transgendered people who choose not to "transition" (change their bodies through hormones and surgery). For many reasons, GirlInside has chosen to keep her male body and go through life presenting as male.

On her site, you can see "an explanation of being transgendered in plain English (the FAQ), a list of famous transgendered people (which includes royalty and even a pope!), a warning against changing one's body, a firsthand account of what it's like to grow up as a girl in a boy's body, a few tips on how to feel a little better, a description of a culture that would have raised me as a girl, a growing collection of articles from other sites, and, of course, some links."

The site also showcases GirlInside's imaginary country, the Kingdom of Daruny, where a person can choose to be either male or female simply by presenting as the gender of their choice.
