Faith is subjective acceptance of a truth irrespective of independently verifiable  facts.

How can something be called as ''truth'' without verification?
 
No one can be sincere in true sense of the word to any thing if that thing has not been verified by him. It is verification that grants some one conviction. Without verification, "faith" is merely illusion one lives his whole life.

[dnasims]

I do not know about truth but a fact is sometihing that can be proven. 
 
I.E. I am a female.
 
I am not so there fore false but still it is a fact as it can be proven true or false.

[History]

Faith accepts (and creates) subjective "truths."
While they may not be "facts" that can be independently and objectively verified as universally true--i.e. regardless of one's faith, they do form a foundation on which one can base one's life and one's actions and one's perspective of the world.

As for the "I am female" analogy.
Look up "testicular feminization."
Phenotype is not necessarily genotype.
