Editing Charlie Harper (section)

== Biography ==

=== Early Life ===
Charlie was conceived by Evelyn and Frank Harper. During Evelyn's ultrasound, the doctor mistakenly predicted a daughter, as there were no visible signs of male genitalia. Charlie was born prematurely at seven and a half months.

When Charlie was a child, he asked for a little brother for Christmas, and nine months later, Evelyn gave birth to her second son, Alan. Their father later died of food poisoning, leaving Charlie and Alan to have three stepfathers over the years. The first, Harry Luther Gorsky, left the family for a younger woman. The second, Don Thomas, was a nervous, gay man from Texas who referred to Charlie and Alan as "buckaroos." The third, Luther King, was an overweight man whose daughter Charlie seduced.

Charlie has always had a difficult relationship with Alan, frequently avoiding the responsibilities of being a good older brother. As a child, Charlie would bully Alan, giving him wedgies and teasing him at school. Once, Charlie planted a toy in Alan's pocket to make him shoplift, and when they got caught, he made Alan take the blame.

Charlie and Judith, Alan's future wife, clashed from the beginning. He even tried to bribe Alan not to marry her. At their wedding, Charlie had a fling with Judith's sister, Liz, in the coat closet.

During the late 1980s or early 1990s, Charlie had a brief encounter with a woman, resulting in the birth of a daughter named Jenny. Although Charlie was never part of Jenny's life, he supported her financially with monthly checks to her mother. The last time they saw each other was on Jenny's fourth birthday. Jenny later revealed that Charlie sent her only one letter, asking if her friends were 18 yet.

Charlie eventually dated Lisa, with whom he fell deeply in love. Together, they bought the Malibu beach house and hired Charlie's housekeeper, Berta. Their relationship was tumultuous, with periods where both, only one, or neither of them lived in the house. After they broke up for good, Charlie kept the house and referred to Lisa as his favorite girlfriend.

Later, Charlie had a serious relationship with Jill, who eventually broke up with him to travel to Europe and "find herself."

One night, Charlie had a one-night stand with a woman named Rose, whom he met at a bar. The next morning, he discovered she was his neighbor. From that point on, Rose became his stalker, once gluing his testicles to his thigh and sealing all his cabinets shut.
