[edit] Plot
Just One of the Guys tells the story of Terry Griffith (Joyce Hyser) as an aspiring journalist who feels that teachers don't take her seriously because of her good looks. So when she fails to get her dream internship, she comes to the conclusion that it's because she's a girl.
To remedy the situation, she decides to enroll at a rival high school, dressed up as a boy. After fending off a bully (William Zabka) and a "girlfriend", she manages to be accepted as one of the guys. But then she meets Rick (Clayton Rohner), a gold-hearted nerd. After walking him through an image makeover, she falls for him.
When Rick becomes alarmed by feeling supposedly falling for a man, she bares her breasts to him at the prom to prove she is a woman.
