COMMENCEMENT
By Vickie Tern
I.
That's right dear, I'm sorry, it's just that you caught me at
a bad time. But I can talk just fine now. No, nothing serious,
only a customer left over from when Bill was running things here.
He said he hadn't seen Bill out inspecting the job site lately, and
wondered if we were neglecting him. Can you imagine? Bill hasn't
been there for a year, and he notices only now. They're like
children, these men, they think they have a problem and they come
crying to you to make it better. So I showed him our progress
reports, how it's going fine, he better get the money ready for our
completion bonus, because we're way ahead of schedule.
I tell you, Madge, I don't know what these men do all day. I
come in here and make a few calls, and then the contractors take
their fingers out of their asses and do an honest day's work for a
change. Then I come home and I tell Bill how fast things are
going, and he doesn't believe me. Just last night I told him about
the Peterson project, and that Mall complex he got mixed up in, I
don't know how, it's taken me ages to straighten it out. Well, he
kept asking me questions about this and that, and I kept answering
him, until he finally decided I knew what I was talking about, and
he sat down and got moody -- I was doing his job better than he'd
done it. Yes, he gets that way sometimes when I change his
hormones for a few days each month, same as we all do. Suddenly he
realized the roast was getting overdone and he jumped up again.
Well, it was overdone, a little, but I wasn't going to say it, and
when he served it I had nothing but praise for it, and for his
scalloped potatoes, he found a marvelous recipe in this "Modern
Woman" magazine he likes to read.
But still he was sad, poor thing. I could tell. He'd worked
so hard to clean the house, and the table was set just beautiful,
and then he'd gotten to talking about business and ruined the
roast. I praised him and praised him, and told him I wouldn't
bother his pretty little head with office matters ever again.
Finally I had to just take him to bed and give him a blow job and
tuck him in. I didn't even insist he take off his makeup or put on
a nightie, and he just went right to sleep, so I cleaned up the
kitchen for once. These men! They need to feel loved and
appreciated all the time, or they come apart!
Is this an OK time for you, Madge? No, I've got some time
now. There were invoices to get out, so I told my secretary he'd
better take them direct to the post office so we're sure they're
mailed, no mistake, and then to go home and bring me the receipts
tomorrow. So no problem, dear. He's gone, and I'm waiting on a
Fed-X right now, some powers of attorney I need for Bill to sign.
Then I can go home too.
I guess you've heard about it? From Becky? The word must be
all over town by now then. No, it's just as well. They've been
keeping to themselves I guess for a year now, and we've had to make
all sorts of excuses for them wherever we went. Now it's out,
there's nothing more for them to hide, maybe they'll stop all that
silliness about being ashamed to be seen for what they are. Can
you imagine? Ashamed to look like women -- how're we supposed to
feel about that? Especially when we went to all that trouble? And
they all really are kinda cute, now. You should see my Bill, I'm
so very proud of him. He's really been trying so hard now that he
thinks there's no going back.
Well sure, I suppose he could, but he doesn't know that. They
all think it's for life. That's why they're all trying to get used
to it. And trust me, Madge, they really do like it. They prefer
it. How do I know? It's a long story, you want to hear it or not?
When I tell you, you won't believe me. But maybe you'll want to
try the same thing with Dave. There's no reason not to.
Well, you remember last Winter, Super Bowl time, when the boys
were all getting together to watch the match, or whatever they call
it. I asked them what's so super about it, and all they did was
laugh, and say, "Women!" and I'm a little peeved but I don't say
anything. Well, Helene, and Beth, and Lorie, and me, we sat down
to play cards, and its near this open door to Bill's study where
the husbands are inside watching the television.
Honey, I think its 325 degrees. For a slow oven, I mean.
Maybe that's moderate. But I'd have to ask Bill, I don't remember
any more. He's done all the cooking ever since I took over here at
the office, and that's nearly a year ago.
Well, anyhow, at first they're laughing together and we feel
good the boys are enjoying themselves. But then it gets mean, you
know? They start shoving on each other, and they get really nasty?
Beth's Joe, I guess he's looking at a cheerleader, or maybe one of
those football players always patting each other's behinds, and he
says "Now there's a piece of ass!" Then there's no stopping them.
"How would you know, all you ever see is your wife's," says I think
its Tom. Tom, you remember, Helene married him just last year in
that big country club affair. "You can think so if you want to,"
says Joe, and Beth perks up at that and starts listening. Then my
Bill wonders how come the girls on television are so thin and we're
so fat-assed. I hoped he was kidding!
But then they all start in! One of them says how we're
fleabrained, can't be trusted even to answer the phone properly,
and they all agree, and they all start telling each other stories
about how we never do things their way. Then they move on to how
we truss ourselves up in girdles and stockings and brassieres and
things, squeeze our bodies into weird shapes, and one of them
starts to mock our clothes that button backwards, and silly hats,
and the way we paint ourselves, and how we're always asking each
other 'What're you wearing?' as if we couldn't make up our own
minds, and saying 'Can you imagine?' and 'Isn't that darling?' and
exaggerating everything. And spending too much money on ourselves,
yes, that too.
Charlie, that's Lorie's husband -- yes Madge he is cute, he's
a dreamboat, but listen, Madge -- Charlie he starts telling them
what Lorie sounds like when she's having an orgasm, uhhhh,
uhhhoooh! something like that, and these assholes start laughing
and talking about "moaners" and "screamers," and I'm waiting for
Bill to start in on how I sound off when he's finally gotten me
going. And sure enough, he does. I was so embarrassed! We all
were. They start telling each other our favorite positions, or
theirs, and the little things we like to do. That's right, Madge,
all those little private things that are none of anyone's business!
Did you know Charlie gives it to Lorie in her rear end? He says
she likes it that way, and real rough, too. So I look at Lorie,
and she's shaking her head 'No' to that, and her face is all,
twisted, and tears are running down her cheeks, but she doesn't say
anything.
Then they all start talking how women have a "basic triviality
of mind," that's what he said, my Bill, a "basic triviality of
mind," and am I ever pissed? He says that's why he doesn't ever
tell me anything about his work, and the others agree, they don't
let their wives know anything, they'd only offer useless advice.
By now they're on their third sixpack, maybe the fourth, and
there's no stopping them. It's like they're infecting each other.
I keep waiting for Bill to drop the other shoe, and sure enough he
starts telling them how I let our house go to hell when I was
studying for my finals for my management degree. It was only for
two weeks for God's sake, and did he lift a finger to help when I
was at it all day and half the night? Someone else is muttering
about 'ungrateful bitches,' or something.
Anyhow, Helene is sitting there real quiet, and sure enough,
her Tommy starts in how women are frivolous and grasping and only
good for shopping and sex, spread 'em and forget 'em, that's what
we're good for. Yes I think he was serious, because Helene at
first gets all red-faced and then she's crying a little too, and
Beth has to lean over and hug her around the shoulders a little,
you know? And Tommy keeps going that we never know our own minds,
and Helene suddenly says out loud, "That's right, you shit, that's
why you rape me most nights!," and she starts to cry, and it isn't
too funny any more.
And Joe, that's Beth's husband, he starts waltzing around the
room and saying in a high-pitched voice, "Dear go to the store and
buy me some tampons, will you, I'm all out," and the others all
laugh, they think it's funny. So I just motion with my head, and
we all get up from the table and go into the living room, and we
can't hear them clearly any longer, but they're as loud as the
Super Bowl reporters still all jabbering away, and there's no
mistaking it, they're mocking and laughing, and nasty and spiteful,
and obviously they're telling each other everything about us that's
no one's business but ours.
Poor Helene, she's really crying now, and the rest of us
aren't feeling too good either. Beth and I are just furious. We
love them and sacrifice for them, and just listen to what they
really think! Helene starts to makes excuses, says Tommy can't
really help it! He has a rotten boss so every night he stops off
and then comes home drunk, and then climbs on her and forces it in
and calls it making love. "But he's sweet to me sometimes," she
says. And it turns out Charlie, the dreamboat, you remember from
a minute ago? Lorie says he's got a temper, punched her out a few
times, and once busted her nose, and when they argue he's never far
from it again, fists all clenched and everything. But he cares
about her down under, she thinks, really. She hopes. Beth and me,
we don't say anything. But now we can all hear all of them in
there making high pitched squeals, pretending to be us. Very
funny!
If the book says 300 degrees, that's what it is. Put it in,
I'll wait. I may as well tell you all of it. No, I won't be
late. Even if I am, Bill'll greet me with a kiss, no complaints,
pretty as can be, all dolled up, and dinner ready. He really
appreciates how I take care of him. He's such a lovely man, now.
I tell you, Madge, every girl should have a husband like my Bill.
So first thing is, Beth and I have to calm down poor Helene
and Lorie, they're both crying now. "Bastards!" I say. "They
should try walking in our shoes for once, and see what kind of
basic triviality of mind they'd end up with.
Beth says, "They need a taste of their own medicine!"
I say "No, they need a taste of our medicine, what we go
through as women. We should teach them a lesson they can't ever
forget. We should fix them!"
And Beth, she's a head nurse over at Mercy General, in
obstetrics and gynecology I think, she says to me "Well, Janice, if
I understand you, I've got plenty of our medicine we can lay on
them." I just stare at her, and this terrific idea is born.
"It'll take more than medicine," I say.
"We can do it," she says, and that's all she says. We've
always been that way, know exactly what's on each other's minds.
"Should we?"
"Bill's a dear," I say, "But obviously he can stand
improvement."
"I've been working on Joe," says Beth. "And I thought I had
him the way I wanted him. But I guess not yet. Lets."
So while we're consoling Helene and Lorie, and bringing in
the tea service and little cakes and things, I'm just thinking
hard. You know, Bill would never let me come near the office.
"It's no place for a woman," he'd say. But that management degree
really did teach me a few things about project planning. By the
time the tea's ready, and the boys are still in there hooting and
hollering and laughing, and the television's shouting, I've got it
pretty well worked out.
"Here's what," I say while Beth pours the tea, and Lorie and
Helene are taking sugar and lemon or milk or whatever, and
stirring, and then we're all stirring and sipping, and we can still
hear those bastards yipping and laughing. "They need to learn
things we can teach them. And they can learn them, if we give them
the proper motivation and guidance. Clear so far?"
They nod, and sip, and stir.
"Well, we are going to educate them. We are going to put them
in our shoes, literally, and let them walk around and see the world
the way we do. Why are they being so hateful in there? Why do
they put us down like that? Because they don't understand us, for
sure. But more than that, at some level they're afraid of us.
Why? Different reasons. But I think a lot of it is, they're
scared not to measure up as men, all that macho bullshit they're
throwing around in there right now. They don't dare to resemble
us, or act like us -- if they do, they get mocked and called
sissies when they're kids, and faggots when they're grown up..
They can't even let themselves think about it. They can't handle
it. So they exaggerate how they're different and superior, and
that makes them worse, in some ways a lot worse.
"Well, we're going to make them more scared not to be like us,
and to be proud to be like we are. We've got to tear down their
crazy notions about who and what they are, and rebuild them with
our feelings and ideas"
"I see what you're driving at," Helene says. "Not just get
even with them but rehabilitate them. I like that. But what do you
mean, 'like we are'? Do you mean we turn them into women? Then
maybe lose them when some man comes on to them? Anyhow, I don't
know that I want to live with a guy who thinks he's a girl."
"No, they'll know they're men all right. We'll make sure they
think they're failures because they're not real women. But they do
have to want to be women, enough so they'll try real hard, and get
to know what it's like. Maybe we'll get them to think that's what
they are for good, so they'd better get used to it! Then later we
can lead them back to what they were, if we want. Or to anywhere
else we want."
"Think of it this way. People are all basically different.
Some of us are bold, or shy, or rough, or gentle -- we all have
lots of different traits inside us, and whether we're boys or girls
has nothing to do with it. But then we get fucked up. Little boys
get taught some traits are OK for them and others are bad, and
little girls get taught the same, but with different traits. Boys
get taught they have to be tough and pushy like it or not, and
drink beer out of cans, and never use lipstick to look pretty,
ever. Little girls learn not to fight but let boys do the
fighting, and to be shy and gentle, and to help each other, and
never to drink beer out of cans, and to use lipstick. Boys are
supposed to be competitive and go to work, and girls are supposed
to help each other out and stay home. You know."
"Well, we'll leave them men down under, sort of. But we want
them to be nicer, more the way we are. Maybe even shy and gentle,
and to want to look pretty. We'll suppress all their boy habits,
and encourage all their feminine traits. Then we can each of us
decide what boy habits we'll let them have back. It'll take
patience and a lot of work, but we can do it. I think Tom will look
darling wearing lipstick."
Helene giggled. "I see your point," she says. "He'll think
twice about climbing on me drunk without asking me first, if the
next day he wants to borrow my lip liner."
And Lorie really brightens up. "And if Charlie's got long
fingernails he'll be more careful with his hands. You know, he's
cute, but he'd really be cute with an upswept hairdo!"
"There you go," says Beth. "More tea, anybody?"
"Now, we'll meet with each other every week to compare notes
and give advice," I tell them. "Each of our husbands is a little
different, and we'll need to use different methods on them
sometimes. There'll be unexpected problems. But mainly we all face
the same problems. So there are some things we need to agree right
now."
"Most important is, we talk to each other, but they don't. We
don't want them finding out we planned this, or they might quit
before they've learned to appreciate what we're doing for them.
And if they see each other before we're done, they may feel a
little ridiculous or ashamed. Because they are going to look silly
for a while. We don't want them to see each other until they're
each so pleased with themselves they don't care what anyone else
thinks."
"It'll take maybe six months to change their habits. I've got
some ideas for a commencement ceremony, where we'll welcome our new
feminine husbands back to their new lives, or maybe to their their
old masculine selves again, but a lot nicer. Then settling them
into their new lives could take another six months. We're talking
about a year here, probably, altogether. Everyone still with me?
Good! Beth, your turn!"
"Thanks, Janice. Now, most of our problems will get solved
the same way. We are going to make them feel real sick at first,
and in deathly fear of losing their masculinity. By which I mean
literally, their balls." says Beth. "For at least six months, we'll
give them good stiff doses of what made us what we are when we were
little girls starting to become big girls. Hormones. Lots of
them. They're going to become big girls too. But we'll give them
some other drugs too, especially at first."
"For a few weeks we want them scared and miserable, ready to
try anything. We don't want them able to go to work, or to feel
like doing much of anything . We want them dependent on us for
everything, the way they were dependent on their mommas when they
were little boys who didn't feel good. I've got something to make
them each feel bad enough to stay home, and then I'll visit each
one at home and set them up with their hormones. With the hormones
I have in mind they'll get terrific headaches and nausea, and some
bad belly aches for a while. They'll want to see a doctor, and I
have one in mind who'll be willing to make house calls. She'll
scare them into doing everything we want them to do, and she'll fix
their voices at the same time, so they won't want to call their
offices and won't be able to talk to each other. She's not crazy
about men, and she'll love this idea."
"They won't be able to talk?" Lorie asked. "That seems cruel.
And it can get lonely for us."
"No," Beth answered, "They'll be able to talk after a few
days. But then you'll feel the reverse of lonely. They'll be
ashamed to talk to anyone except you, because their voices will be
higher pitched, like ours. They'll sound like women. Then as
their bodies accommodate to the hormones, they'll change. Their
faces will soften. There'll be a redistribution of their body fat
to their hips and their butts. And to their breasts. They are
going to grow breasts. That's essential to changing their sense of
who they are, changing their body image to include our most obvious
feminine feature. So they can't ever deny what they've become, and
never forget for a moment. Does this bother any of you?"
Helene and Lorie looked uncertain.
"It oughta be fun, going to the store with them to try on
brassieres," I broke in, mainly to reassure them. "If our men are
being good girls, we'll let them shop looking like ladies, so they
can use the dressing rooms. If they're being difficult, we'll make
them try on their bras looking like men, out on the selling floor.
That should help keep them in line."
"And it might be fun to grab Charlie's boobs the way he grabs
mine, really feel him up," said Lorie, "especially in public." She
was smiling again, and she leaned over to whisper something to
Helene. They both giggled.
"Now one more thing, girls. The hard part, maybe. The massive
amounts of hormones we'll put into them will make them impotent
after a while. When that happens it'll scare the daylights out of
them, and we want them scared. Remember, they won't know what's
hitting them. Later when we cut them back to sustaining doses
their potency will return, though their bodies won't change from
what we've made them. But they won't know that either. Anyhow,
you won't get to enjoy your husbands in your usual ways for some
months while we're changing them over to our ways of living and
thinking and feeling. In effect each of us is going to have to
make love to them like lesbians, or else not at all."
"That's the hard part?" Helene asked. "Sound pretty soft to
me. It'll be good for the son of a bitch to need to satisfy me if
I'm going to satisfy him."
We started making jokes about oral sex, getting kissed in the
crotch by our new Ladies in Waiting while we're lying in bed like
Queens, and what would happen when our husbands found they couldn't
get it up, that their weenies had decided to stay weeny. Then we
couldn't stop giggling, any of us. Beth had time to get out to her
car and come back with a bottle of pills, and she gave each of us
a few. "Here," she said. "Give each of them three of these
tomorrow night. By the next morning, that's Tuesday, they'll feel
like death's door and will call in sick. Then I'll come by and
take some blood samples for tests, and start their hormones, and
tell them they're in the throes of a dread disease almost always
fatal to men who fail to take certain precautions. Then they'll
really feel peculiar, and we'll add some other medication to addle
them some more. They won't seem to get better, and I'll explain
that the disease has to run its course, at least a month, with
severe after-effects that last maybe six months more, maybe for
life, so they'd better arrange their affairs at work accordingly.
You'll pay attention to what they arrange, because in fact they're
not going back in for the six months this'll take all in all. If
then. At some point, I guess very soon, my friend who makes house
calls will come by and take care of their voices, so they'll be
ashamed to call out. Then we've got them for the duration.
"Meet Tuesday night to plan things further? My Place?" I
asked. The three of them nodded. By then, I figure, the men will
all be in bed groaning or trying to sleep, so the four of us can do
some serious thinking about what to do next.
The men came in to say a few sociable things to us before
thanking Bill for the good beer and the lousy football game. I was
thinking, now that I know about it, that Tommy and Charlie are
pretty low specimens. But maybe they just don't know any better.
Maybe they aren't really bad guys, just guys with lots of room for
improvement. Bill is really a nice guy, I was thinking, but I'll
enjoy him more when he's less hung up on these masculinity trips of
his. And that's a fact. I used to think that about lots of boys
I went with, and I improved some of them. I was really looking
forward to this.
Here's the Fed-X now, Madge. I'm off! When Bill signs these
papers, the whole business is mine, so I'm a little anxious, you
understand. Call me in a few days and I'll tell you more. No, I'm
here every a.m. by 8:00 and I usually stay till six, so call me
here. I begin early and keep at it -- we've gotten a lot busier
since I took over from Bill.
II.
That's right, in triplicate to meet the code requirements,
then just leave them on my desk. Hello? Madge! No, I wasn't
talking to you, just my secretary. Nothing to it, get everyone
working, keep after them, and when they're done make sure they've
done it right. Do that, and there isn't much else you have to do.
Certainly we can talk now. Yesterday around this time I left the
office and went shopping. Had to remind myself to buy Bill some
tampons and some new panties, so I did. He's so helpless
sometimes. I pay no attention to the laundry for a few weeks, and
then I find all the panties I've bought him are stained, that from
now on he needs to use tampons when he's having "those days". No
of course not, Madge, where would he get menstrual blood? They're
stained with semen! Yes, I suppose it's his own semen, some of
it, how can I tell? Well, never mind, I'll get there, and then
you'll understand.
So anyhow, I slip the pills into Bill's coffee the next night,
and the following morning he's feverish and headachy, just as Beth
said, terrible cramps, and he calls in to put off his morning
appointments, no, he says, better to reschedule everything for the
next day. Around ten Beth stops by, she's already been to see
Lorie and Helene, so Charlie and Tommy have been fixed, and she did
her Joe first thing that morning of course. So she goes in to look
at Bill, and takes his temperature, and taps him here and there,
and takes her blood samples to keep an eye on him, and looks real
worried. She starts whispering to me so Bill can see. Then Bill
looks even more worried.
I nod, and Beth explains to him there's this new Virus X,
very, very serious, there's no publicity about it or there'd be
public panic, he's got it for sure, and there's no fast cure. It
affects only men, feeds on testosterone or chromosomes or
something, I don't remember, Beth was pouring out gibberish. First
it shrivels their balls, then it kills them. But there are
precautions you can take, and also there's this antibody to keep it
from killing you while the disease is running its course, six
months maybe. Pretty clever story, because in fact his balls will
go down in size once they're drowning in estrogen, and he'll go
impotent too. "This is very serious," she says, and she's going to
send a doctor who specializes in this disease. Isolation and
bed-rest until symptoms ease off, and follow every prescribed
instruction precisely. He needs to sign a waiver for the antibody,
and of course Bill signs without reading it, his head's killing
him. I witness it, and we've got him for anything we do to him, in
case he finds out and threatens to sue everyone in sight, Beth in
particular.
Then she gives him the antibody, and Bill realizes this has
got to be serious. It's four little slow-release hormone rods she
slips under the skin of each arm. Then the butt plug. That's
right, Madge, an expanding butt plug! Once he's loaded with his
first full-month supply of triple-potency girl-juice, she slips a
mineral oil suppository into his butt and then a tranquillizer, and
then the butt plug, and it's all firmly in place before Bill even
knows what's hit him. His eyes go sort of round and his face goes
real worried, like a beagle's, and she tellt a side effect of the drugs
that're keeping him alive, to keep his asshole from closing up, so he won't
die from being full of shit. I have to leave the room at that one, and then I
can't stop laughing! She told me later she thought of the butt plug when
she stopped by the hospital to pick up supplies for her morning
rounds. It'll hold in different suppository medications until he's
absorbed them, expecially the tranquillizers he'll need to stay
mellowed out, not thinking too hard about his fatal disease. And
it'll keep him dependent on me, she says, because I'm the only one
permitted to remove it, so he'll have to ask permission when he
goes to the john. And it'll reminded him he's still sick,
especially once he's out and about again. And we're both thinking,
it can have other uses.
Poor Bill's never had anything like it in his ass before, and
I tell you, Madge, he's plenty aware of it from then on, all the
time. Every week I turn the knob and make it a teeny bit wider,
and he knows it's there all right all over again. He gets used to
it by the time his anus is stretched out full, of course, but by
then I've got him practicing walking in high heels, and I can see
how it forces his hips to sway like a pendulum. It turns out to be
a terrific idea all around. With that thing in his rear, he
decides, he must be real sick. It's like being nailed to a cross,
sort of. And it's handy, because then he never questions any of
the things I push into his backside each morning, before I close it
up again. From then on, he does what he's told. Well, I moved the
timetable up and that afternoon I let him sort of waddle out of bed
to visit the bathroom, and to show me how to open the safe where he
keeps important papers for the office then, because Beth tells him he's
in for some real bad days before he starts recovering. That's when
I started taking over the company, and really making it pay.
Well, we all met that night, and everyone's story is the same:
husbands afraid they'll die or lose their balls, and they don't
know which is worse. Tommy's really terrified Helene says, and
cries and whimpers until his tranquillizer kicks in -- Beth tells
her to double the dose, and to add another kind of hormone she's
got, a kind they once used to make nursing mothers into contented
cows. All four of them are plugged up the ass, and docile, stuck
in bed, calling out to us for relief from their headaches and tummy
aches, and arranging for long stretches of time off from work.
Well, it turned out Charlie and Tommy work together, and were
about to go on six months' paid furlough anyhow, you wouldn't
believe it, because their main office is relocating in another city
and they'd already decided they didn't want to go. Didn't even
think to tell their wives, their life-partners, or even ask Lorie
or Helene for an opinion. So they're home for a while, no mistake
about it! Beth's Joe is a writer of some kind, works at home and
e-mails his copy to whoever's paying him for it. So he's home all
the time anyhow. I'm taking over Bill's office. So the really big
problem, where does the money come from while we keep our men home
and re-educate them, that's solved! Beth says the boys will be
really miserable, feverish, aching, very unhappy, for maybe about
a week, then they'll pick up. But by then her doctor friend with
the throat treatment will come by, and she'll scare them some more
so they'll want to start looking like women right off.
Well, Lorie's really getting into it. She wants the doctor to
come right away. When she comes in to see Charlie, she says, he
still bellows at her. It would do him good, and her too, if he
couldn't use his voice for a few days. Then if he's going to lie
in bed and yell, she says, she wants to be yelled at by a man with
a high-pitched voice wearing full lipstick, mascara, eyeshadow,
blush, and if she had her way -- we restrained her a little -- even
that cute blonde upsweep she'd mentioned already, topped by piles
of curls. Fair enough, considering the abuse she'd taken from him
in the past. So we decide to go ahead with makeup, so they'd learn
how to put it on properly by themselves while they're still
bedridden and can't do much else.
Helene thinks Tommy'll look a little more loveable if he's
wearing a frilly nightgown, when she has to bring him his meals in
bed. So we all agree on that too. Beth's story makes anything
easy -- to keep their balls they'll do whatever crazy thing they're
told is necessary. We vote frilly nightgowns and makeup, and
decide to leave it to Beth's doctor friend to explain it, and leave
it to the tranquillizers to cover any doubts. We agreed to meet
again in a week.
Sure, honey, call our lawyer and let him handle it. No,
Madge, only to my secretary -- he just came in with some Accounts
Receivable over a year old. Can you believe Bill carried some of
these sons of bitches forever, at no interest, firms perfectly able
to pay us? He thinks he's a businessman? Well, I'm being unfair,
Madge, he thought he was a businessman, but he doesn't any more.
So, the hormones begin to get to Bill, with a bellyache Beth
tells me is really in his liver while it accommodates to his new
body chemistry, and he's fine, his blood counts are excellent, and
he's scheduled for his voice operation the next day, Beth
assisting. This Dr. Teague, Beth's friend, shows up the next
morning. I'm expecting a Dyke, a man-hater, but in comes this
short, pleasant, middle-aged lady, well-turned out, with a firm
handshake and a steady gaze. And no makeup. She walks in on Bill,
and if there was any hesitation or doubt in his mind, it ends
immediately. She says right off, "I see no makeup. Why is there
no makeup on this patient? Is he in tertiary, that you figure why
bother, he's dead already?"
"No," I explain. "He's my husband, and I knew he'd think it
was an odd treatment, so if I suggested it he'd think it's silly,
so I'd wait until you could...."
"Well, my dear, what's silly is none of his business. You
shouldn't have waited. He's a man, isn't he? And this virus is
specifically fatal for men. Look at his skin color already. Look
at it. The virus lodges in hair roots especially, and the
eutrophication is phototropic -- that much we know. So full facial
makeup! And you'd better begin his electrolysis at once. No hair
roots on that face. And his skin covered at all times if you want
him to come through this alive and unscarred. No daylight on
facial skin anywhere. Exposure to air and daylight can kill him
during this active phase, the next several months. Women's makeup,
exactly the way you'd use it on yourself. We know women's makeup
contains some form of protection and doesn't cause allergies, and
we don't know why, and we don't know what else might. Lipstick day
and night! And get him into a nylon nightie at once, his skin is
abrading already. Do you have satin sheets for him, too? Now I'll
attend to his throat. Those tonsil roots are a core area where the
virus lodges. I see he's had no tonsillectomy. I'll attend to
that too."
Bill commented that this was...er...unusual treatment. Dr.
Teague just said, and talk about icy contempt, "Oh? You know about
these things? Have you seen any women with this disease? That was
our first clue, it attacks only males past puberty, so we thought
it was in some kind of symbiotic parasitism with testosterone. Now
we think it's also triggered by secondary sex characteristics, male
skin especially. Above all with male testicles. You see what it
does to the testicles, and how the patient agonizes while it's
doing it, well, it's a welcome death, if it gets that far. We've
thought of recommending that testicles be removed at the first sign
of the disease, it's so bad. Women are somehow immune. Believe
me, you don't want to look like a man. We can treat these symptoms
in the early stages, and save lives, if we have the patient's full
cooperation. Do we have yours?"
Bill nodded vigorously, and said "Yes! Yes, doctor!" and
pulled his covers up to his neck. Dr. Teague then called in Beth,
and told me I could leave the room.
Three hours later there was my poor dear Bill, his face badly
swollen but looking peculiarly well-groomed, feeling utterly
miserable. He had insisted even before Dr. Teague put him under on
having everything she prescribed. So I had put foundation, blush,
lipstick, eye-shadow, eye-limer, mascara, and one of my prettier
full nighties on him, one with puffed sleeves. Then a lot of it
came off once he was out. To take advantage of the anesthetic, the
electrolysist I called managed to burn out over half of his facial
hair follicles, and the other half went during the next few weeks.
His throat was raw for a few days, and so was his face. But sure
enough, when his voice returned it was no longer that usual deep
resonant tone but a high-pitched sound like Minnie Mouse's. He
sounded so silly, Madge! I had to try real hard not to laugh. But
he did his exercises, and in time he brought it down to a pleasant
woman's voice. I must say, I found it charming, once he could
speak up without squeaking. I'd close my eyes and imagine that I
had a new girlfriend already, and we'd talk about all kinds of
things, and he began to adopt some of my other mannerisms too. But
he realized he couldn't make phone calls to his office any more, so
he had me make them, and then he began sending me instead.
We compared notes every Tuesday. Of the four men, only Tommy
kept a kind of flute-like Bimbo falsetto, and Helene said she loved
hearing it come out of him. She taught him to do his own make-up,
and she especially treasured a moment she came into his bedroom and
found him fluffing up the shoulder ruffles on his nightie, so
they'd look prettier for her. He was really beginning to get into
it. She said that was when she began thinking she might rent him
out as a call girl for perverts when we were through with his
re-education. Beth told us Joe had done electrolysis years before,
because shaving annoyed him. But Charlie had a thick black beard
that took the whole six months, three times a week, to make
disappear.
Charlie gave Lorie a problem over the nightgown. It made no
sense to wear a sexy nightie, he said, when he could wear men's
nylon pyjamas. So she used up one of our reserve tricks on him.
Friday morning she gave him sedatives enough with his morning
orange juice so he dozed off and slept until Saturday morning.
Then on Saturday morning she brought him Friday's paper and made a
bet with him about a Friday night basketball game, who would win
the game "that night" with what point spread. After he made the
bet she drugged him again, and on Sunday she told him he'd slept
all through Saturday, now it was Sunday, and she'd won the bet.
She proved it by showing him the Saturday and Sunday newspapers.
The bet was that for six months he'd wear anything she wanted him
to wear, anywhere, anytime, and would give her no further trouble.
Or if she lost, she'd wear anything he wanted, even the slutwear
she hated but he always made her wear when they went out. How
could he refuse a bet like that, especially when he knew she knew
nothing about basketball?
Anyhow, in the end, all of our husbands' cheeks were as smooth as
ours, and their voices were even more mellifluous, and their
nighties were soft and their skin was getting softer, and when we
snuggled up to them at night they felt smooth as silk.
And after Dr. Teague frightened them about their skin
corroding or something, they all used used makeup to cover their
faces completely. Bill tried a shortcult with suntan lotion once,
but I just kept repeating 'Doctor's orders!' After a while he took
pride that he could put his face on every morning neatly, even
elegantly, in under a half hour. When he began feeling better
during the second month or so, and showed up for breakfast, he was
always beautifully made up. I was proud of him, because he really
seemed to care about looking nice.
It was around that time that male pattern balding was
discovered to be a primary source of phototropic eutrophication for
Joe and Tommy, or whatever the gobbledegook talk for it, I forget,
and the Doctor immediately ordered them to wear their wives' wigs
at all times to cover their bald spots. Eventually they went in
for fittings and got wigs of their own, really pretty ones, in
styles they liked. It's only right, Madge, every girl gets to
choose her own hair style, so why should our husbands be the
exception? Bill and Charlie each have full heads of hair of their
own, so we each flattered them into blow-drying it into a girlish
style they didn't know was girlish, until it could grow in enough
to get a girlish cut and be styled properly. By the third month,
when I was going into his office every day and Bill was fully in
charge of the household, he always looked lovely when I came down
for the breakfast, a sweet gamin cut swept back, long lashes on his
beautifully outlined and shadowed eyes, and curling red lips. When
I remembered to compliment him he'd dimple, and look pleased. It
took time to talk him into lighter shades and natural tones for day
wear, and just a few cremes for bedtime. Like the other husbands,
he was taking no chances until the virus's full six months
incubation had passed, and his balls were safe. Can you imagine?
Men!
Anyhow, when they began feeling better they got out of bed and
puttered around the house, and the nighties we'd "loaned" them were
no longer suitable. We decided not to push matters yet, because
their breasts and their impotence were expected to appear soon, and
when that happened they'd be so embarrassed and desperate we could
talk them into anything. But they understood they needed to wear
"slippery" clothes at all times, and that meant pantyhose and
slips. And while they were wearing slips, dresses to cover them.
By the end of the fourth month we were all living with
well-dressed, beautifully coiffed, and impeccably made up men. I
had Bill slimmed way down, so his curves would show when they
developed, and he really was starting to round out, front and rear.
No one but the wives and Beth ever saw them, and they didn't know
about each other at all, od course. We showed each other pictures,
and half of our weekly conferences were taken up with making jokes.
Helene wondered if Tommy was Charlie's type, how they'd get on if
they dated. I thought Bill was better suited, and Bill liked dark,
mysterious-looking women. Lorie thought Charlie would be more
attracted to Joe, because both of them were feisty, and they'd
enjoy teasing each other. And so it went.
When our husbands began to feel healthy we began to teach them
how to become our kinds of women. That was the price they had to
pay in order to get out of the house, they had to be passable in
all respects. That was when we brought on heels, really high heels
for dressy wear and maybe two or three inch heels for around the
house. We taught them to walk, and sit, and use their hands
expressively, and when each one was ready, we each took our
husbands to the mall to buy them more clothes. By the fifth month
they were as avid shoppers as any women anywhere, and sometimes
when they got caught up with their housework they'd go roaming the
malls on their own. No chance they'd recognize each other.
Helene taught her husband to wear real dark eye makeup, mince
around on four or five inch heels, wear leather miniskirts, and
patrol the mall asking men if they knew what time it was. Their
arrangement was, every tenth man he asked entitled him to another
article of lacy lingerie from Victoria's Secret. He got to love
roaming the mall stopping men, and Helene told us with a broad,
beaming smile, that just as she'd hoped, sometimes he'd disappear
toward the parking lot for a half hour or a more with a man he had
just approached. She never asked him what he did and he never told
her, but she'd tell him his lipstick was rubbed off even when it
wasn't, and he's always believe her. She was looking forward to a
time when he went away and didn't come home at all, she said, so
she could throw him out of the house altogether. "He's a natural
slut, my ex-rapist. Promiscuous? Who would have thought it?"
Lorie allowed Charlie to wear slacks and pennyloafers or
flats, but always with the most feminine blouse imaginable. She
wanted him to be highly conscious of his upper areas. One blouse
she showed me had a low scooped neckline that showed his cleft --
he was really getting impressive up top. And another was satin
with panels that draped across his breasts and nipples as they
grew. After a while his breasts got real heavy, and he really
needed to wear bras to keep from sagging, and she saw to it he was
well-set-up with figure-hugging sweaters..
Once I came upon them coming out of the Bon Ton, and I didn't
know whether I should recognize them or pretend not to notice. But
Lorie called me over, and Charlie said "Hi, Janice, it's been a
while," as though he were wearing a business suit or blue jeans,
though in fact that day it was a calf-length skirt and loose print
overblouse. He was made up just the way Lorie had described, and
his black hair was now cut in a neat bob at earlobe length.
"Hello, Charlie, you're looking nice," I said a little uncertainly.
"I heard you haven't been well."
"Thank you," he said calmly. "No, I've been quite sick lately.
I'm still not myself."
"So I see!"
"Do you like Charlie's earrings?" Lorie asked. She seemed to
be signalling me, keep it cool.
"We've just had my ears pierced," Charlie added. "The
selection of earrings for pierced ears is much wider than for
clip-ons."
"Yes, I know," I said. "They're very nice, Charlie. Wear
them well! Well, I've got to run. See you!" And I was off.
Lorie told us at our next meeting that was Charlie's first
encounter with anyone who knew him, and that she had been training
him for that very moment, to take everything in his stride, always
to remain poised no matter what, always to act like a lady. When
I left, he had begun to shake, and she'd had to take him home to
recover. But she was proud of him, and that night as a reward she
had allowed him to lick her pussy for a long while, until she came
several times. Earlier, while he was still sick, she had decided
to let him kiss different parts of her own body as different
rewards for good behavior, to teach him to respect her body always,
and to feel privileged to touch it, though only with lips and
fingertips. This was only the second time ever he had been
permitted to kiss her crotch, and she said the next day he was
positively euphoric, singing and humming as he worked at repairing
the lace on her panties, which was one of his regular chores.
I went out to restaurants with Bill a few times to get him
accustomed to being seen, and when I thought he was ready we went
to a businessman's grill near my office -- formerly his -- to see
how he'd handle being seen by people he knew. He was tense until
he realized no one recognized him, though a few times men or women
we both knew stopped by to greet me. Once he realized what
terrible risks of exposure he was running, I had no problem
feminizing the rest of his appearance out of all recognition. He
spent a full day at the Beauty Salon having his hair permed,
lightened and frosted, and his fingernails done, and his face
completely made over, and it really made a new man of him. After
that he felt perfectly confident when he drove off to the mall for
a day's shopping on his own. I would advice him about purchases,
but Bill had good taste, and he'd been reading about women's styles
from when he was first bedridden and saw the handwriting on the
wall. So gradually, his part of our closet filled with dresses and
skirts and things, and sometimes I borrowed one or two that weren't
too feminine looking, to wear to the office.
Beth didn't usually report much about Joe, and it was only
near the end of the six month training period that she told us why.
It seems Joe had always been a transvestite, even before they were
married, and had a full wardrobe of women's clothing he'd often
worn when they were out together. She'd always encouraged him to
look like a woman whenever possible. "None of this is that big a
deal for him," she said. And he always did whatever she wanted,
because she had pictures of him looking really sexy, and whenever
he objected to anything, she'd comment that it would be good for
the world to know about his hobby, what's he hiding it for anyway?
He knew what Beth was up to with those hormonal implants from the
beginning, and he was uneasy about it, but he raised no objection.
Then each month when she replaced them, he more and more welcomed
the changes in his body. It was like wearing the ultimate in
women's underthings under his underthings, he told her,
transvestism down to the skin. He didn't understand why she wanted
him to wear the butt plug or undergo the voice change, but Beth
told us he was happy with his developing breasts and especially
with his wider hips and rounded tush, even though he wasn't really
a transsexual and wasn't planning to go further.
Helene was the first to report the onset of outright impotence
in her formerly rapist but now silly-Bimbo-voiced slut of a
husband. She couldn't contain herself, she was so happy. "He
tried, the bastard," she crowed. "Nothing happened! So I tried,
even with my mouth, which I haven't tried for years! Nothing! So
I told him next time I'd get a dildo and fuck him like those men he
ran around with, and turned over and went to sleep absolutely
delighted! The next morning he looked as if he hadn't slept at
all, and when he saw I was awake, he asked me, "Am I going to die
now?" I told him "No, worse, you'll live!" Then I caressed and
squeezed and pulled on his little worm for a while, just to be sure
it was out for the count. He could feel it, he said, and he looked
so grateful to me for my half-a-hand job that I thought, even if
this goes no further it's been worth it!
Well, Madge, I'd been preparing my Bill for the same moment by
caressing his nipples. They were beginning to swell into points
pushed out by the developing tissue beneath them, hard lumps
growing increasingly sensitive, and finally excruciatingly erotic.
Then real breasts started to emerge. One night neither my hand nor
my mouth could make him stiff enough for, you know, penetration.
I told him the breasts were a side effect of the antibodies he was
getting to save his life, and that later he'd recover his ability
to get an erection. He told me he'd been worried the virus was
spreading, or the medicines were giving him breast cancer in some
way. My heart went out to the poor dear, and I almost let him in
on the secret. "No, my love, you're getting something much better
than breast cancer," I said. "Breasts! Maybe better even than a
penis!" And to prove it I brought him off by nipple play alone.
He never asked me how I was so sure the breasts were benign.
But he was amazed, he said, that his orgasm that night had seemed
to fill his whole body, not just his prick. It was glorious, he
said, and seemed to go on and on, and higher and higher, before it
finally eased into an afterglow. Only then did he discover that
his little limp penis had ejaculated even though it was limp the
whole time. For the first time since we started this, I began to
think that I might really be doing Bill a favor, not just educating
him about what it's really like to be a woman, bringing him to task
for not respecting women. Now he knew how women enjoy sex, through
their whole bodies, and now he'd had a taste of it!
Joe and Charlie were also beginning to have unaccustomed
failures in their erections and bulges on their chests. After some
discussion of what we wanted next, we decided to consult with Dr.
Teague again. "They bought those last explanations?" she said.
"Then they'll buy anything! I'll visit each one of your husbands,
and just wait until you hear what I tell them. Just be sure to
give them two doses of those tranquillizers first." We assured her
the men had been on tranquillizers since we began, which was why
they had been so amenable to everything, scarcely ever complaining,
no matter how strange our requests or explanations.
When she arrived at our house she elected to see Bill in the
living room. I sent him in wearing a plain cotton print house
dress and flats. Dr. Teague just stared at Bill and shook her head
in amazement. "Billie, my dear," she said. "Why didn't you tell
me last time that you really are a woman? The virus doesn't seem
to have affected anything essential at all. Only your penis, I
hear!"
"I'm not a woman," Bill said with a certain determination.
"Ask Janice if you don't believe me. I'm a man!"
"Are you, dear?" she replied. "How interesting. Breasts well
under way, no erectile tissue to speak of, wearing a dress,
beautifully made up with a lovely hairdo. You're working at home
and your wife's at the office. Tell me again what kind of man you
are, in that lovely voice of yours."
"Whatever kinds there are, I'm one of them, Doctor! Or I hope
so!"
"Well, dear, you'd better hope not. I've seen your blood
workups. It's true you have testicles, and that may have deceived
your parents and affected the way they brought you up. But now,
call yourself fortunate. The antibody has neutralized your
testosterone, fortunately, or the virus would be attacking it at
this moment, and you'd be dead by now. Now, the antibody that has
saved your life, the one I prescribed, is a form of estrogen.
That's why you've grown breasts, and hips, and why your face is now
so much softer than a man's. Your bloodstream now contains the
estrogen usually raging in the veins of a fifteen year old girl
eager to suck cock to stay popular with the boys. I do recommend
you do everything you can to complete your passage into full
womanhood. Sucking cocks is one way. But if you're still a
virgin, consider losing it in one of the more traditional ways, as
soon as possible. It'll improve your estrogen balance and prevent
any recurring male hormones from metabolizing the virus and killing
you. This treatment has now gone on for six months. I think we can
declare all risk past after another six months, to be on the safe
side. Then you can do whatever you wish about finding you manhood
again. Needle in a haystack, if you ask me!"
Well, when she was gone, I went to hug my darling. He was
staring out the window frightened. "She told me I need to get
fucked, or to suck cock, or I might die," he said. "For another
six months I need to dress like you and be like you. I'm getting
to kind of like that. But I don't want to have sex with a man. I
don't want to die either. What should I do?"
I realemony I'd planned from the beginning. Now Bill was ready.
Soon after Dr. Teague visited the other husbands, and so were they.
Goodness, look at the time! Gotta go now, Madge. I'll call
you this Friday, before the weekend, maybe we can get together some
time soon. I know you'll want to know how our guys finished up.
III.
Madge, you're the first person I'm telling this to, but what
Dr. Teague told all four of our guys was what I had asked her to
tell them. We decided fairly early on that our husbands needed a
full feminine experience in order to respect us properly. All of
it. They'd made fun of how we think, and dress, and talk, and
behave, and also what kinds of noises we make when we're getting
laid by a stiff prick. So it's only fair they should find out for
themselves what kinds of noises they'd make when they're getting
laid by a stiff prick.
It's true that Tommy didn't need to be encouraged into a full
feminine experience, including sex with a man. Fairly early on it
looked like he had to be peeled off any man who'd let him come
close. But our other guys, I don't know, they were a little shy
about getting intimate with a man. I knew they would be. They
spend all that time horsing around, and punching each other's
shoulders, and maybe like me they'd rather be feeling up some guy's
buns, but they repress it. It's that competition thing again.
They think it's manly to fuck but it isn't manly to get fucked.
Even though there never has been one without the other. As if one
was winning and one was losing.
Think about it, Madge. It's only sex with a man. We all do
it all the time, you know, or we wish we could, some of us.
Nothing more common! Every woman does it. But our big strong
brave men, the very idea of it spooks them. Just suggest it and
they get crazy angry, and they tense up, and you can't reason with
them any more. I knew it would be that way the first night I
thought of the plan, that Super Bowl Sunday. That's why right off
I thought about the commencement ritual we'd have to have, when we
got our guys together for the first time since we transformed them,
and gave them a chance to get to know each other all over again.
And to be initiated into full womanhood together. That's what we
wanted for them.
And that's what we gave them, Beth and Lorie, and Helene and
me. Here's how. Remember that none of them knew that any of the
others had been feminized. Charlie knew that I knew about him, but
Lorie assured him I'd never tell Bill, and of course I didn't.
They each think they've just barely been saved from this virus by
their body's hiding out from its own masculinity somehow,
suppressing its testosterone, looking feminine. I know, it sounds
a little crazy, but we've been shoving tranquillizers up their
asses every day for six months, so even if it still sounds crazy
they never questioned it. They're a little zonked, remember,
Madge! They're thinking the way they think we think, like women,
right? Sure it's funny. At this point they believe they're still
at risk, for five more months, and to reduce this risk they need to
get laid. Sure, but what do you expect? From a man? They're
scared!
Well, we decide we'll hold the commencement as the final
meeting of our Tuesday night group, because after that there won't
be any reason to meet in secret any more, and that'll be the big
moment we've all been working toward. At my house because I've got
the biggest living room. We get each of our men ready. Remember
how they thought we were all so silly, going around all trussed up
in girdles? Well, now, each one of them has a corset, and we make
sure the laces are tight, so each corset is nearly rigid, and each
of them has a wasp waist and spread out hips and real breasts
pushed up into the cups. Bill's are an honest C cup with no
padding now. They look so sweet sometimes. I love to kiss them.
That's right, Madge, he can't go without at all any more, or they
sag down and hurt. Well, they're all wearing their nicest dresses,
and are beautifully made up. Bill knew there was something special
happening but didn't know what, so he went to the beauty parlor for
a hairdo and makeover. I tell Bill no panties, maybe we'll want to
paddle his bottom, who can tell, and no butt plug for the same
reason. The other girls tell their men the same thing.
So, anyhow, Bill's sitting in the living room, waiting for the
first arrivals, and I go into the kitchen, supposedly to fix up
snacks or something. The doorbell rings, and in comes Lorie with
Charlie, very quietly, and she motions Charlie to go in the living
room and then joins me in the kitchen. Well, Charlie goes. The
two men check each other over and each sees a strange woman, so
they nod and smile politely, and Bill returns to his "Cosmo" and
Charlie picks up a "Vanity Fair." It's so funny -- Lorie and I can
see from the pass-through in the kitchen that they are reading the
ads much more closely than the articles, the same way all women do.
Same thing when Beth comes in with Joe, and Helene with Tommy. Now
there are four women in the kitchen, grinning and whispering
excitedly, and four men who each think the others are women in the
living room making brief polite remarks and mainly trying to ignore
each other, sitting and waiting. Oh yes, and four men from the
Gay-Bi Athletic Club, two of them trainers in terrific shape, and
two others long-time regulars in the Nautilus program, sitting in
a car parked across the street, making jokes and waiting for the
signal.
Well, when everything looks right, I signal and then I call
out "Bill, where'd you put the wine?" and Lorie follows with
"Charlie your lipstick's smudged!" Without thinking Bill calls
back to me in his new voice "In the pantry, dear," and returns to
his magazine. Charlie pulls a mirror out of his purse, checks his
face, and starts to repair an imaginary imperfection with his
lipstick. The other two ladies stare at both of them.
"Bill? Did she say your name is Bill? And you're Charlie?"
says Tommy in his Minnie Mouse squeal.
Joe picks up on it quickly, an experienced transvestite
accustomed to seeing other men in drag, and just as Bill is looking
at each of the others in turn, all confused, with his mouth and
eyes wide open, Joe says, "Well, I'll be damned! Here we are
again! All four! What have those women done?"
Charlie just stares around a little wildly, his lipstick still
in his hand. "What?" he says. "Who are you?" But he already
knows.
There's a brief pause while the boys recognize each other,
then recover themselves, and then recover from their embarrassment
at being seen, and then from their realization they're all in the
same boat, and then recover their sense of humor. "So we've all
had this same disease, this virus, and we were all too ashamed to
admit it all these months," says my Bill. I could kiss him! He's
so wrongheaded! He leaps to the wrong conclusion and leads the
rest of them there, that they've all been fighting the virus. Then
even Joe abandons his correct line of inquiry, that we women
connived together and did it all.
So they all feel this enormous relief and begin talking at
once. Charlie tells Joe he's wearing a gorgeous tunic, is it silk?
and Bill admires Tom's leather miniskirt -- "I wish I had the
courage to wear a skirt that short," he says. "It's really
precious! Where did you get it?" And then they all begin talking
at once, and we're listening, and each of us is hearing the kinds
of exaggerated comments they had once told each other was dumb. I
guess they no longer thought so. It's amusing, and cute, and really
loveable, you know? They were really enjoying themselves making
girl talk in those lovely voices. We wives are grinning and
feeling so warm about everything we've been doing. Our husbands
are so much...well...nicer now. You know? Then we decide, time to
move on.
So we march in together in a row, one behind the other, and
sit down in four chairs that happen to be lined up across the room
from the chairs they've settled into. We look like a tribunal, or
whatever the four of us would be called if we were sitting in
judgement of them, which in a way we were. "Ladies!" I call out.
"Ladies, please!"
They look up at us, and smile, and the gibble-gabble gradually
quiets down, until finally they're just looking at us, expectantly.
We're all here for a reason, they know, but they don't know what it
is yet.
"Ladies," I say to them, "Let's get to it. You have each of
you been making some difficult adjustments during the past
half-dozen months, and you've all four survived them, and you're
still here with us, and we're all of us grateful for that." The
other wives beamed at them. "There are more adjustments to come,
of a different kind, but tonight we reach a threshold, and we want
to help you cross it, each of us. So we've arranged a kind of
ceremony. I assure you, after it, you will not be quite the person
you are now. You do have our best wishes for what you are about to
become. Please, now, each of you, kneel down here a few feet from
your wife, in front of her."
Well, Madge, they were still guys, no matter how beautifully
coiffed and dressed. They glanced over at each other with
half-smiles. It was clear to them that there would be some fairly
heavy pussy smooching coming up. So they got up and knelt down
elegantly. All of them were wearing stockings, and heels, so the
kneeling wasn't easy. But we have a soft carpet,
"Now if you will bend way forward, each of you, chin to the
floor, bottom to the heavens."
They do that. Behind them, unheard and unseen, the Athletic
Club jocks enter the room barefoot, naked from the waist down, and
line up behind each of our husbands. Three of them already had
erections, and the fourth was pulling on his
