Emily is a top-ranked pool player who has competed in major tournaments around the world but reaching success as a female in the male dominated world of professional pool has been a monumental challenge. Since women earn significantly less than men in her sport, Emily has to leverage her looks to get the sponsorship she needs, and this sets her up for harassment from male players. To prove gender bias in pool, Emily undergoes the makeover of a lifetime to transform into a man! How will the same male pool players treat her when she plays them as herself compared to her male alter ego?

This timely and fascinating social experiment follows women as they go through astounding transformations to discover what life is truly like in a man's world.

In each episode, a different woman undergoes months of coaching before stepping out into the real world to put her disguise and training to the test. From professional interactions to encounters with family and friends, each woman experiences just how different life is as a man.
