"Ladies-Who-lunch: In The Cosmic Bubble"
The second week of August,1961. Summer was coming to a close and fall
was just around the corner. The schools were being readied as the grade
school kids grumbled, while the college set was spending the last couple
weeks with friends and starting to pack up and plan for their coming
year.
Sitting at the kitchen table the steam drifted lazily up from the coffee
cup as Joyce read the short letter sent by the university registrar
concerning Lane's upcoming fall semester. She finished then quietly laid
the letter over the freshly opened envelope addressed to a Mr. Lane
Benson on the center of the table and looked to Lane seated on the other
side. He noticed her flawless, long, gloss red nails, the tinkle of her
jewelry and the perfume in the air. But Joyce wasn't smiling. "So,
that's it then. Now what are you planning on doing?" she asked in a
serious tone as she sat back, crossed her shiny nylon clad legs with
sheer whispering zip, smoothed her skirt then folded her arms under her
chest.
Lane had been an engineering student and although this was to be his
third year he had just been notified that his grades weren't up to
scratch. And not having the where-with-all in math and the sciences to
continue to the next level he was done, washed out. The other programs
leading to medicine and the law were equally rigorous and out of reach
as well. There was a chance to bring his grades back up in another field
such as english, sociology, the humanities and the like but what kind of
job would that provide even if he finally managed to graduate? Not only
that, he had gotten a late start in college and was now nearing his mid
twenties.
Lane was a peaceable enough young man, quiet but friendly even though he
was mostly a loner. His mother wanted him off the farm as soon as he
finished high school as the heavy work didn't seem to suit him. His
step-father had no use for him and during the past year Lane's mother
secured her divorce and had chosen to relocate to another town. With
Lane being more baggage than she could afford she'd wanted him in
college so he could hit the streets with a degree and start some kind of
productive life once he graduated. Her sister Joyce gladly offered him a
place to live until and during college in return for him helping her
around the house. There would be mowing lawns and trimming hedges and in
the fall sweeping leaves and in the winter shoveling snow. He would also
help around the house helping keep the place clean and maintained,
painting here and there and fixing this and that.
She started teaching him the basics of home cooking and even made the
offer of a small stipend to help with his expenses and with her in her
early fifties now the extra help around her large house at the edge of
town was more than welcome. But this idea, this plan was nearly three
years in and now, things were in a real bind.
There weren't many guys his age or any age for that matter around the
area, mainly just older couples and retired people. Joyce's late husband
had been an engineer himself and had actually sold a couple mechanical
design patients. It was a shame he wasn't alive to help Lane along but
being an average type and not a go-getter Joyce felt even that help
would have been for naught.
He kept the house and property nice and helped keep the living space
clean. In addition to cooking she'd taught him how to wash clothes and
to iron and keep a house going. Would a degree in home economics provide
future employment? Doubtful she thought. The letter indicating the
failing grades was indeed a sticky wicket. But there was another. One of
those "quiet problems" that's better left unspoken, and in Joyce's case
also not dealt with. It really wasn't worth her trouble and bringing the
issue to light would only evoke embarrassment all around. If left alone
once Lane was gone this would pass and it wouldn't be her problem
anymore. She would deal with it that way. But then her thoughts
continued.
Joyce was one of the old set that came up from just past the turn of the
last century. She started out as what is known today as a "girly girl."
And living through the classic era when everyone dressed and had
deportment it was just the standard lifestyle. But once married of
course Joyce never had to actually work. She never had children and
maintained only a few lady friends and in her circles she did the church
meetings, the bake sales and the raffles for charity and such for
something to do outside the home but apart from that it was just her and
a her half dozen lady friends. Vintage ladies of leisure, ladies who
shop, ladies who visit salons, ladies who lunch to sip tea and coffee
and talk about the latest hair styles and fashions. Her "ladylike" job
was being a socialite.
If you're old enough you've seen them, we all have. In the hustle and
bustle of the city they're there, part of the citizenry like everyone
else like the barber, the grocer, the pump jockeys at the gas station,
the paper boy, the kids in the park on bicycles or playing with their
dogs or the other folks going about their daily lives. But few are in
their inner circle. Few actually deal with them apart from the stylists,
dressmakers, sales clerks or waiters. They are the wives of the well-to-
do men who have many other things on their minds. Their wives look the
part and do their part by maintaining this social order, this family
pedigree.
The strict, tight curled hair sets, the heavy vintage makeup, the pearls
and dangle earrings, the seamed stockings and patent leather heels, the
elegant car coats, the white gloves and patent leather purses dangling
over bent arms, the jewelry that shines and "tinkles" as they move and
the specter of floral perfume that always follows with them, the gloss
red manicures match the pedicures when wearing open toes shoes and also
matches the gloss red of the lipstick. You can hear the creak and
stretch of the strict foundation garments underneath as they move in
their seats or reach for an item on a shelf. They feel the taut garter
straps under those expensive, rayon lined dresses and the rustling swish
of the nylon and taffeta and satin under-slips as they slide against
their strict foundations and they hear the familiar "shick-shick-shick"
of the sheer nylon hose that shines on their hairless, Naired smooth,
perfumed and powdered legs as they mince and wiggle along the dress and
lingerie racks or past the hosiery stands of the town's finest
department stores. And then finally to return to that little bistro for
one last coffee and a chat before getting in their cars for the return
trip back to their opulent homes, some have their own drivers but Joyce
was content driving her own late model black Lincoln Continental town
car with the suicide doors.
Time stayed the same for what seemed like ages through the 30's, the
40's and 50's. But as the decades continued to pass and the styles and
dress and music changed along with most everything else the ladies who
lunch seemed to live in a type of cosmic bubble, a holdover of a bygone
day, a standard of class that was there maybe only for reference now,
but it continued on and would for sometime to come until society itself
would erode into the Orwellian dystopian horror of what we now have
today.
Time also seems to have a note of grace in the fact that for the "ladies
who lunch" by the time their end of days were approaching and they had
finally been consumed by the ages, they would be forever remembered like
the pristine porcelain dolls on the mantle shelves that would neither
endure nor suffer the future that awaited all the rest. But that is a
distant future. For today it's only another bright late summers day,
early August 1961. But what of Lane?
Lane gathered his letter then quietly left the kitchen. Joyce poured
another cup of coffee then took her seat again to look out on her well
manicured back lawn. He couldn't finish school and a lesser degree would
have little impact. And then there was the "problem." The problem of her
coming back from her Saturday hair set and lunch that first time to
notice that someone had been in her dressers and closet. It was almost
undetectable but Joyce was a stickler with her things and everything was
always just so, always. A pair of nylon stockings not folded properly in
the hosiery tray, a folded garter belt with a single strap left in
disarray, a dress in the closet turned wrong way on the hangar and the
shoes on the floor seemingly moved in place from where they had once
been before. Small, nearly imperceptible things.
It started as a mere curiosity, possibly an error in haste on her part.
But as time went on it continued. Girdles refolded wrong and clean and
pressed full slips with fresh creases that hadn't been there before. She
noticed some of her shoes felt slightly looser too, bringing another
facet of knowledge to her that Lane had been trying on her shoes as
well.
He was small and slight for a young man of his age, seemingly stuck in
mid high school size while all the other boys were much larger young men
now. Joyce kept track of her things in her closets and dressers and on
her vanity. He'd tried her lipstick once or twice and her powder puff
container had been moved slightly. And now and then a complete pair of
stockings would disappear, evident that he'd been wearing them and had
gotten a run in one of them. The corsets, cinchers and heavy foundations
were left mostly alone, just unfolded to look at then quickly replaced.
The fancy gowns were left alone too, but the day dresses, the rayon and
nylon and satin Dior styled dresses had been sampled along with several
of her double layered nylon chiffon baby dolls and matching peignoirs.
She was older and had a larger figure but it seemed that Lane could
easily zip into her dresses and fit into her delicate nighties. It
seemed that he was getting to be quite the expert in ladies things, her
things. But what could Lane accomplish in life, especially now that it
was apparent he also had an interest in women's things? If such a
revelation ever surfaced what woman would have him? What would an
employer think, what would his few friends think of such a person?
She remembered coming home one afternoon, Lane was on the couch watching
television and rifling through a TV guide. He seemed a bit nervous as
she passed to return to her room. And to this day she swears to herself
upon entering her bedroom and setting her purse on the dresser she
caught a glimpse of her floral patterned rayon house dress still moving,
tilting ever so slightly as the hangar seemed to twist on the rail. Then
she remembered this was the dress she often had to have Lane unzip for
her as the long back zipper often stuck mid-back where it was nearly
impossible to reach. She thought of bringing the subject up, about the
lined floral rayon dress with Lane now fumbling on the couch trying to
look relaxed but she figured he must have had to have been a regular
Houdini to get undressed and out of her room before she returned. He
knew her schedule, it rarely changed but this day she had returned
early, he must have heard her car pulling into the garage. Then she
thought of Neil Henderson. And in her always sharp mental state she
quickly calculated that she could get two birds, solve two problems for
the price of one.
At her age Joyce was more than content to be one of the ladies-who-
lunch. Of her other six lady friends two were widowed, two were divorced
while the last two remained married to upper class husbands as always.
Neil Henderson was one of those upper class types. Divorced, he was now
on the lookout for another suitable wife. Many divorced men of today
stay single and count their blessings and losses and then move on but
this was a different age, a time when the picture perfect lifestyle of
the American Dream and family had to be maintained. Particularly at this
level of social strata.
Joyce was intelligent and came up from a strong social background, and
with her ultra-feminine classic looks a very suitable "Gaboresque" type
to help the Henderson family line continue on. Joyce had met him at
several functions and during her shopping excursions and he had stopped
by her table while the ladies had lunch. But Joyce was set in her ways,
she'd mentioned that twice with a dismissive smile.
Mr. Henderson glanced around the other equally feminine upper class
ladies at the table and took notice of the four sans wedding rings but
aside from the smiles and quiet giggles that seemed to be it. He had his
eye on Joyce. Maybe he could chose a younger lady, but the bobby sockers
and bubblegum popping types just wouldn't do. Maybe it was that these
ladies were older, set in their ways in a life of strict femininity with
straight seams, flawless makeup and nails and not a hair out of place.
Maybe he sensed the power these older ladies had, a power that would
soon vanish for women as time went on and they opted to burn their bras
then decided to be more butch and macho and become well, men. That
wouldn't do for Neil. He picked up the coffee and lunch tab for the
ladies with a smile and a wink then went on his way. But of course the
ladies noticed.
The clean shave, the burgundy silk tie with gold collar clasp, the
manicured fingernails, the Rolex watch under the French cuffs under the
tight pinstripe of the black three piece suit and the spit shine on the
classic Freeman Wing-Tip shoes. Joyce had passed on any idea of a date
but she and her friends knew Neil well having met him long ago through
their husbands and other associates. But still, as Joyce sipped her
coffee the strange thoughts she'd had earlier began to coalesce. Then
the days continued on.
Of course Lane was as afflicted by Joyce as Neil was, but for a
different other-side-of-the-fence reason. He noticed the strict
femininity as well but Lane's taste went far deeper. He always heard her
nylons zipping as she walked, the creak of her stays, the errant rustle
of her skirts and dresses. He could even tell the difference in her
lingerie without seeing it! The nylon slips always sounded smooth and
silky but when he heard that crisp, louder silken wisp echo from under
her skirts he always knew she was wearing one of her taffeta slips or
petticoats.
Rayon slips sounded similar but it was the exhilarating rustling high
pitched "whistle" that always told him that she had on her taffeta
lingerie. By now lane was an expert.
All those nylon and rayon lined outfits and coats, the full makeup, the
hair sets, the dangle earrings and of course the pearl necklaces filled
his thoughts. And then his favorite, the new style Hanes nude support
pantyhose she?d recently started wearing, the sheer nylon stockings,
plain or seamed always gartered taut high on her legs as she teetered on
her high stiletto heels which were almost always black patent leather.
And then the long line brassieres, the strict full panty girdles with
the shiny white satin panels. Then for going out for the evening for an
even sleeker figure the back lacing corsets and cinchers.
He?d actually been asked to help lace Joyce in once or twice. It was
nothing in the day really, only slightly more than having her ask him to
zip up a dress and finally comment on her appearance as she smoothed
everything down in front of her dresser mirror and checked her tight
hair set with the palm of her hand just before sliding the straps of her
purse over her arm and gathering her white nylon gloves as she turned
and minced out of the room on those high stiletto heels as he followed
along to see her off at the door for the evening.
He could see how the strict foundations shaped her under her tight lined
dresses and skirts and he also heard the difference as her silky nylon
and taffeta and satin lingerie slips slid and brushed against the tight
foundations underneath. To Lane it was a perfumed symphony! This was
indeed the feminine limit, he?d remembered the 1950?s but for Joyce and
her friends this style was continuing merrily on.
Lane could tell by the times that ladies and men?s styles were starting
to change, to become more casual. Fewer hats and ties lately, fewer suit
coats and leather soled dress shoes as an every day look for men and
fewer ladies with hats and nice high heels and seams and petticoats as
well, more ladies slacks from the Capri style and flat patent shoes and
fewer strict hair sets and the classic vintage makeup style was starting
to fade into history. It was a slow change being only 1961 but it was on
the way.
Lane took note that Joyce and her friends seemed oblivious to the change
and stayed the same as always in that "cosmic bubble" of theirs. The
amount of work to look like that on a daily basis, never a chipped nail,
never a run in a stocking nor a hair out of place must have been
unbelievably time consuming, to a point that the ladies-who-lunch
basically did nothing more than look exquisitely feminine! That was
their station in life, their goal, their "socialite" lifestyle. He
assured himself it was definitely a type of lifestyle, and for some
unknown reason one they all seemed to relish. Neil was older and in his
way, he?d realized the same thing.
The school year started, the days became cooler and fall was in the air.
Lane continued living with Joyce as always but with him out of school
and not seeming ready to find any kind of suitable employment she knew
continuing on as is was pretty much a moot point that now made little
sense. He?d started sweeping up the errant leaves on the drive and the
walks. She enjoyed the help but to be honest, she had the money to hire
her work done, Lane had been there just there to finish college. She
didn?t need a live-in.
But lane was happy where he was, and he did provide a service for
staying there. He was busy working on something to get his future going
but without words they soon realized that wasn?t happening. And while
Joyce was out doing her ladies things Lane was home. Of course he?d
tried to swear-off on his visits to that boudoir of a master bedroom but
that wasn?t working either. Lane knew full well that this wasn?t just an
experiment or a phase anymore but rather an addiction, and one that
wasn?t going away. As time passed he seemed to want and then need even
more!
He had tried the makeup and a dash of perfume but he was terrible with
makeup. And even with his fine features and baby smooth skin he still
only came off looking like a clown. And he had to be careful, not to use
too much of this or that, not to leave any spills or lipstick or mascara
covered Kleenex?s around to be found. And although his hair was long for
the time there was no use in trying to style it himself. Hopeless.
He was getting quite adept at walking in Joyce?s highest heels though,
it seemed to come quite naturally. He loved getting into her tight eight
strap garter belts and ladies lace trimmed nylon briefs and after
smoothing on a pair of her sheerest beige seamed opera hose he?d garter
them tight, the creamy beige welts smoothed wrinkle free then pulled
taut against the wide garter straps. He?d slip into one of her baby doll
nighties too, the ones with double layered nylon chiffon with the shiny
satin edging. He?d slip on the matching peignoir too and sitting on the
edge of her bed he could feel the dryness in his open mouth and hear his
breaths, his heart pounding in his ears as he slipped on each of her
high heeled stiletto pumps in that empty silent bedroom, the tight nylon
stockings shining in the light now, the feet slipping easily into the
gleaming black leather of the stiletto pumps. He?d smooth the gowns down
then begin his walk around the bedroom.
The walks began tentatively but Lane had experience now, getting up to a
feminine mincing speed had become second nature. He felt the wispy nylon
chiffon baby doll fluttering and flowing as he moved, and how it brushed
against his upper thighs. Then as he walked further and began to mince
just like Joyce did he began to hear that classic sound coming from
himself! As the mincing straight forward steps continued and with the
slight wiggle he heard that "shick-shick-shick" zip as he felt the
stockings begin to rub against his upper thighs and then mid calves and
all the while he could feel the ebb and pull of the sturdy garter straps
at the top of the stockings that held the welts tight and the seams
razor straight. At the end of the room near the closed window sheers
he?d turn, the gown would flutter and whirl around, the nylons would zip
loudly, and then that feminine metronome sound would once again echo
through the room as the nylons "shicked" and shined again in the room
light while the pink satin edging of the nylon chiffon baby dolls shined
as well as the matching lace trimmed nylon rhumba panties when those
were added to the ensemble.
His head spun, he felt dizzy and nearly overcome as he stopped to hold
on to her dresser, he wobbled on the heels slightly for just a moment
before continuing another near breathless round through the perfumed
room. He wanted to try more but time after time he just couldn?t work up
the nerve. Until finally, in his fetish induced euphoria he simply
couldn?t continue and had to quit.
His hands would still be shaking, his open mouthed breaths jagged as he
quickly but carefully took everything back off and remembered where
everything was supposed to be placed and folded. His blue jeans and T-
shirt were on the chair by the dresser as always, the sweat socks and
tennis shoes stowed underneath.
As he changed back he wondered how long this time, how long had he been
able to enjoy this sensation. With his head still in the clouds he
looked to the clock on the night stand to note that only eight minutes
had passed. Eight minutes. Lane returned to the living room and switched
on the television to let the tube warm up, he then grabbed a bottle of
Coke from the refrigerator then returned to watch a show so his nerves
could unwind once again, like an astronaut moments after a successful
splashdown, or the final wave from the referee as the loud bell signaled
the end of the last round in a winning fight.
He wondered now, he always did. His legs looked sleek and ladylike in
the nylons and heels. But he always noticed the thin, blondish hair that
always matted under the sheer stockings. He was nearly hairless but what
little leg hair he had always caused the stockings to pull at the hairs
on his skin. He wondered if he dared to try shaving but the thought
always ended there. And then he always had the added angst that he could
never seem to wear enough! He?d gotten good with the nylons and heels
and had worn a nightie and a skirt and dress or two and over time as
Joyce had found out he?d been through quite a lot.
But for Lane there just wasn?t the time to do it all and he knew there
never would be. And he knew he didn?t have the skills to pull off the
entire look anyway. It was an absolute mental quandary. Joyce had been
taught as a child and then she?d had another forty years of practice.
What would that be like he wondered in heady thought. All those layers,
all that silkiness, the swishy sensations from head to toe and from the
skin out? Being totally hair free from the plucked eyebrows to the tips
of his pedicured toes, being powdered and perfumed. And then being able
to do it at will for as long as he wanted? What about a total lifestyle
just like that!?
He saw no urge nor point in wanting to be a woman, but he knew full well
that was the very prerequisite for his needs. He certainly had no liking
for men of any kind though. But the ladies-who-lunch seemed quite
content, being in their "cosmic bubble" talking about fashion and hair
sets and the sheerness and shades of stockings and the newest in high
fashion shoes. They dressed as they pleased to satisfy themselves, did
what they wanted, didn?t have to work, and rarely if ever spoke of men
or children during their near daily chats as they enjoyed their
seemingly endless days.
Yup! Overall? That, would be the pinnacle, the very ultimate, the
perfect job! Perfect except for poor Lane who?d drawn the wrong ticket
in the cosmic lottery. A most brutal punishment for a condition he
didn?t need and certainly never asked for but nonetheless one that he
was unfortunately stuck with.
The thoughts dogged his days and often ruined his dreams at night. He?d
see a good looking woman when friends would point her out and the first
thing he?d look for is to see if she had on the right kind of nylons and
proper lingerie, and of course he could never mention any of that or
anything else about this Jekyll-and-Hyde existence, yet another facet of
this curse. Yup, he was just plain stuck. He likened it to being lost,
adrift on a boat in the ocean delirious from thirst while all about was
all the water in the world, water he couldn?t drink! But the thoughts
continued without end.
The full makeup, the hair set and all the painted nails and then being
forced into feminine shape by the strict white foundations and then
being in the lingerie and the dress. And what about the car coats and
the scarfs and the purses? What about going out, actually going outside
for a walk maybe? Or maybe just staying home and being able to luxuriate
around the house all night, for a whole evening just like that. But to
what end? It was always back to the heavy jeans and T-shirts and sweat
socks and tennis shoes.
He knew as usual it was only a thought, a personal tease, a personal
torture that seemed to get worse almost daily and one he?d never be able
to shake. He changed the channel as he sipped his Coke and came across a
western movie he?d seen before and then he happened by a teen beauty
pageant with the girls all dolled up in the satin and chiffon gowns
showing off on the runway like the dancers in all that nylon chiffon and
those hair sets and makeup, smiling and twirling every Sunday night on
the stage of the Lawrence Welk show.
He watched them mince and wiggle on their heels as the gowns and dresses
swayed with each step as they smiled their gloss red lipsticked smiles
and did the pageant wave as the crowd whistled and clapped. Lane
switched the big black and white TV off, he took his soda into the
kitchen and picked up the morning paper to finish the comics he?d
started that morning. Joyce returned in another half hour none the
wiser, or so he thought. Supper followed and after Lane did the dishes
he watched some more television before bed. Just another quiet evening.
"Lane? Lane dear? Come help give me a hand with this zipper would you?"
Lane heard Joyce?s voice from upstairs down the long hall as he finished
the breakfast dishes a few days later. He dried his hands and headed for
her bedroom imagining it was just another ladies day out as usual.
Lane immediately noticed she was in that lined, floral rayon dress.
"This zipper is stuck. Help me unzip it would you? I?ll wear something
else then drop this off at the cleaners to be repaired on the way to the
salon." Joyce said with no different inflection of voice than she
usually had, even though Lane would be there when she removed the dress.
He stood behind her, he grasped the zipper stuck between the shoulder
blades. He pulled down to no effect then he twisted the zip back and
forth and finally got the zipper to raise, he then held the material
tight then quickly pulled the zipper all the way down as the high
pitched "whisking" sound filled the room. Joyce breathed a sigh of
relief. Lane heard the nylon lining rustle and the rayon swish as she
leaned slightly forward and slipped it off. He also heard the lining
whistle over her lace trimmed white nylon full slip as she tugged it
past her bust and over her wide hips. The dress swished again as she
stepped out of it then pulled it up to toss it on her bed. She minced on
her heels to the walk-in closet to select another outfit for the day.
Lane noticed the shiny nylons.
Her hair and makeup were done and he noticed her dangle earrings and
could smell the perfume in the air as she looked through her volume of
dresses as the satin lined hangers slid across the metal rails. "Which
dress should I wear. Or should I wear a nice skirt and blouse today?"
She mused as she turned to Lane.
"Y...you know me. I...I?m not much of a fashion consultant aunt Joyce,"
he said with a trace of nervousness already in his voice as Joyce stayed
steadfast. She swished a full skirted day dress from the closet in a
whirl then returned to her bed to set it down. "Oh come now, you?ve seen
me dress, seen how my other lady friends dress, you certainly must have
an opinion, don?t you dear?" She continued as she returned to her
dresser and began rummaging through the large dresser drawer pulling out
more lingerie and slips and a petticoat or two, one of which was the
gleaming white taffeta type he knew the sound of quite well. She
motioned him to sit on the bed while she continued. She then unzipped
the side of her tailored, lace trimmed white nylon full slip. She then
crossed her arms then gathered the lace trimmed hem then pulled up and
wiggled slightly and as the nylon shined in the light and zipped over
her sturdy white panty girdle and long line brassiere as she swished it
up and over her head. She turned it right side out then tossed it on the
bed with the floral dress. Lane instantly noticed her foundations, the
stays under the cups of the sturdy brassiere, the long row of hooks at
the sturdy back, the little red rose bud flourish sewn in between the
ample cups in front, the gleaming white satin panels of the tight,
smooth girdle and how the welts of her garter hose were cinched tight
and pulled taut under the lace trimmed long legs of the panty girdle.
Lane stayed quiet but he felt the rumblings of excitement at seeing
Joyce this way. She picked through more lingerie and came away with a
lace trimmed white nylon camisole and quickly swished into it. A mid-
thigh length pair of white nylon petti-pants came next, she stepped into
them, they whistled as she swished them up her smooth nylon clad legs.
He noticed the blue satin ribbon trim at the fluted flounce of nylon
that went around at the end of the legs, a bit like an old fashioned
bloomer but these were the newer tap pants variety. He noticed the heavy
white nylon gleam as she pulled them up high on her waist then smoothed
them out. He even noticed the little pink satin bows on the outside
thigh of each leg at the side of the white ruffled nylon edging. "Toss
me the petticoat dear." She said without any excitement.
Lane hesitated but complied. He felt the cool stiffness of the shiny
white taffeta petticoat in his hand as he swished it up then handed it
to her. He watched her step into it then wiggle it up and over her hips.
The bottom four inch flounce was also done up with the blue satin ribbon
all around and on the side another pink satin ribbon was sewn in, this
one more pronounced, larger than on the tap pants. She turned to look in
the mirror as she smoothed her slips down. Lane started feeling weak.
"I...I was just finishing the dishes. M...maybe i?ll finish in the
kitchen then watch the morning movie," Lane said after having been
silent so long. But she only continued as she grabbed her full skirted
dress and unzipped the long back zipper. "Won?t be a moment, you need to
zip me up you know." She said as she swung the dress open then stepped
into it. She swished the print plaid dress up, the lined wide pleated
skirt rustling as she slid her arms through the short sleeves. It looked
like a vintage dance dress of sorts, all done up in a shiny patterned
rayon taffeta. The white taffeta petticoat made the large skirt of this
day dress flare even more as she turned in front of her mirror. Lane
then zipped up the long back zipper, he watched as the material
tightened and fitted close to her feminine shape. He quickly hooked the
clasp at the top of her neck as she gathered then did up the two inch
wide self belt until it was a snug perfect fit.
"This dress is larger than I thought," Joyce mused looking at herself in
the mirror. She turned. "What do you think?"
"It looks okay. Nice like all your other stuff I guess," Lane replied.
Joyce moved to the side of her large bed and sat next to Lane. She
swished her skirt up to reveal her smooth gleaming nylons. "Do these
stockings match you think?"
"Sure, I guess if you think so," Lane nervously replied as she swished
and fluffed the large skirt out and over her legs with all the rayon and
taffeta rustling and swishing. "This dress is a bit large for me. I bet
it would even fit you!" She said as she smiled and leaned back on the
bed on her elbows as she seemed to check his physical dimensions.
There they were now, at the far end of the block at the edge of town in
a large house on a large quiet treelined lot. Upstairs and at the back
of the house in Joyce?s very feminine master bedroom. All alone. She was
sitting back looking him over, she touched her hair set with the palm of
one hand then fiddled with one of her dangle earrings giggling and then
laughed with a smile at her thoughts. Her purse was on the dresser, her
car keys out and ready to go but for some reason she stayed put.
Of course a mere seven years later when women were still women, we all
remember the film "The Graduate" the back enclosed patio and wet bar
area, how Mrs. Robinson sat with her legs up on the footrest of the
barstool, nylons in full view as she smiled and giggled as she surveyed
Benjamin Braddock like a Black Widow as she luxuriated in all her
feminine power. And then up in her daughters bedroom when she stripped
down to that leopard bra and slip making an offer that never should have
been. Just like now.
"Do you think this dress would fit you dear?" she teased again. "N...no
aunt Joyce. I...I?m a boy and I wouldn?t have any interest in stuff like
that," Lane blathered in dismissal saying what he had to say. The
reddish blush now added to the nervous demeanor as Joyce began looking
over the lingerie still on the bed, she knew better.
She gathered a long nylon stocking then quickly spun Lane around and
tied his wrists and before he could complain all he could do was
"mmmfff, mmmfff" In a wide eyed gasp as she wadded up a pair of ladies,
lace trimmed white nylon brief panties and filled his mouth! Then
another pair until Lane?s cheeks were puffed and the lace trim was
visible bulging through his lips. She gathered a sheer white pair of
nylon panties and pulled them over his head, she giggled still being
able to see his wide, glaring eyes through the sheer nylon. Another long
beige nylon stocking came next. She gathered it, rolled it up then
quickly swished it over Lane?s head and began pulling it down and
continued until the stocking was gleaming tight over his knob-like head,
the welt pulled down around his neck.
"You just look lovely dear," She giggled as she centered herself on the
edge of the bed. She swished her large skirt and slips up at the same
time she pulled Lane down and had him kneel on the floor. "You just
relax now, aunt Joyce knows just what you like don?t I sweetie?" She
said as she pulled him close then slid down on the bed slightly. She
took the long dangling leg top and reinforced stocking foot from the
back of his neck then threaded it through the stocking that was tied
around his wrists. She then pulled until the stocking zipped tight and
Lane?s head was pulled back tight, chin high. Her plaid taffeta dress
and slips rustled loudly as she swished the hem up. She began pulling
him forward now, his one eye at the edge of the sheer white nylon panty
glaring wide under the tight nylon stocking as he blubbered nearly
silently with his puffed cheeks. He saw all the lace trimmed white nylon
lingerie he?d seen her just put on and then as she pulled tighter he
smelled her perfume then heard the nylon zip and felt the warmth of her
nylon and girdled thighs as his cheeks slid between them and finally she
wiggled and he felt his chin brush against her girdled mound, lightly at
first then tighter and tighter still until he could feel his chin
working between her vaginal lips under the tight tap panties and panty
girdle. And then another fluffing swish and it became dark!
He heard her moan with an excited feminine sigh at the same time he
heard the swish and rustle of the dress skirt as the white taffeta
petticoat swirled and zipped and whispered over his nylon encased head
as Joyce widened her smooth legs she swished and worked the dress
completely over Lane?s head. She pulled him closer now. He felt his face
slide up her nylon thighs tighter now and felt his chin being pulled
still farther back until she?d moved in tight with a feminine urgent and
pleasured gasp until his chin was tight!
She moaned again and now having him just where she wanted him she
released his nylon leash then held his head in place with tight hands
over her voluminous, perfumed dress and skirts while his "Mmmfffing"
"glubbing" twitching gasps could be heard from under the silken layers
as she worked his chin against her mound!
She turned her head from left to right as she gasped at the sensation,
that urgent need of stimulation. Still holding tight she looked up and
continued. "That, that?s it baby, just relax now and let aunt Joyce do
all the work," she cooed in a pleasured breathy tone as one then another
hairpin came loose from her strict hair set.
The nylon zipped, the crisp white taffeta rustled and zipped over Lanes
head under the patterned full skirt! He felt her long, nylon stockinged
legs flex and heard them swish as she moved, they swished again when he
felt her thighs tighten around his head until she was able to lock her
ankles and continue to hold her knees and thighs tight. And then Joyce,
holding Lane?s head began to twerk, to hump to rub tightly on his chin
getting the full effect as she rubbed against him, his chin moving up
and down, up and down the long white nylon tap panties and the girdled
slit.
He struggled slightly but she continued. She moaned with pleasure then
cooed in stuttering gasps as she again rubbed his chin up and down, her
cleft just where she wanted it. Her thighs became warmer still, her legs
began to tremble as she pulled the skirt and petticoat tighter until
finally he could actually feel her twitch against his chin!
She swooned with pleasure then momentarily shook slightly but all over.
Another few rubs and she seemed to vibrate again, then another smooth
working to wind down until finally she let go. Lane slid to the floor on
his knees as she swished her dress back down with a rustling taffeta and
rayon zip. She quickly pulled off his nylon stocking and panty hood and
removed the panty gag but she wasn?t done yet. She noticed that Lane was
now rigidly hard in his pants!
She quickly marched him into her large bathroom and before Lane knew it
she?d put two nylon stockings over his little erection. With his wrists
still tied she leaned tightly against him then leaned him over the sink
and began stroking him. The sheer nylons gleamed on his erection, the
second stocking making the whole sensation even slipperier!
"Mmmmmmm, Oooooh... That just feels sooooooo good doesn?t it??" Joyce
cooed as she worked Lane. He was already painfully excited so just a
little more stimulation would be all it would take. She worked him
gently, sliding the sheer nylon up and down in and out so Lane would
last longer and so he could experience every nuance of the sheer
slippery fabric. He gasped as he humped back at the sensation in a bit
of an involuntary twitch and then Joyce looked on with a satisfied smile
as Lane became weak in his knees then came, spurting his little jets of
sperm into the feet of the nylon stockings. She giggled at the effect
and her efforts then pulled the stockings away and tossed them into the
second sink then added the last stocking that she?d untied from his
wrists to the sink with a few other pair. A jigger of Woolite and a
swish in the cool water and all the nylons were soon soaking. After
hanging dry on the shower rod they?d all be as clean as new. Joyce then
turned on the water of her large bath. "Get undressed" she said almost
firmly as she added some floral perfumed bubblebath powder to the
flowing water. She then took out large pink bottle of depilatory!
Lane protested but it wasn?t long till he was soaking in the hot bath.
It seems that Joyce wasn?t in a hurry to go out after all. But the pink
goo in the bottle bothered him, and after living there as long as he had
been and rummaging through her things he well knew what it was. Hair
remover! Joyce returned to her room to let him soak. "You soak for a
while and I?ll be back," She assured with a still breathless tone.
"L...Look aunt Joyce. I didn?t really need a bath, I took a shower this
morning," he explained. But after a few minutes she only pulled the
drain plug and let all the water out. She also slipped on a pair of
rubber gloves then had him stand in the tub. Lane watched her pour a
large measure of the pink hair remover into her gloved hand and as she
came near to start on his chest he pulled away.
Lane had always been short and slight but in having just worked his less
than average erection off over the sink she now noticed he was nearly
devoid of any real body hair! Lane was not very manly, not at all. She?d
noticed he rarely needed to shave and only had a thin, wisp of whiskers
but nonetheless she continued on slathering the pink goo on his slender
thin chest and trim waist. She then started on the hair on his legs.
True, he hardly had any hair there either, just a blondish wispy scant
hair but she had her plans and once she was done he?d be totally
hairless! "What are you doing?" Lane groaned and choked a gasp as Joyce
continued.
"If you want to wear my nylon stockings you simply must have smooth,
hairless legs. Don?t you think?" She said as a matter of fact as Lane
began to squirm at the idea that Joyce had somehow figured out he?d been
in her things, he also began to squirm at the warming, burning sensation
of the cream that was now dissolving all of what remained of his body
hair.
"But aunt Joyce, I never...I, ...I?m s...sorry aunt Joyce," he blathered
his admittance stopping short of a lie.
"You?ve been in my things for years, isn?t that right Lane? You?ve been
in my nylons, my lingerie, my makeup and my dresses, even my nighties
haven?t you? And you?ve even been wearing my high heels as well, isn?t
that right?" She quizzed. Like she knew, Lane was a good kid, honest and
just and true and loyal and all the other traits you could want. So, now
he was stuck as they say, and at the mercy of his aunt Joyce. As he
stood in the tub and she continued slopping and smoothing and working
the pink gooey lotion onto him from head to toe. "Do you want to be a
girl sweetie. Is that it? Do you want to be a woman?" She teased
slightly but with an edge to her voice now. "N...no!" Lane gasped in
return as his mental gears locked up and his head spun.
"If you wanted to dress as a woman why didn?t you come to me and ask for
help princess?" she reasoned.
No young man would "ask for help" for anything like that! It was
unthinkable! But now it was a nice added tease she was able to use on a
now quite compliant Lane. "Maybe I should call your mother, or does she
already know her son is a little sissy, hummm?"
Joyce cooed as she went on in her "Robinsonesque" rhetoric teasing and
taunting in full command of her feminine power as Lane grimaced and
writhed at the thought and the continued burn of the hair remover.
Joyce knew that her sister was a tomboy all the way, the cotton panty
and blue jean type who only had an outfit or two for special occasions.
That was her life out on the farm. Joyce got her start by marrying above
her station and soon took up the job as society matron and socialite.
Lane wouldn?t have had anything to try on at home she reasoned and
giggled slightly and then laughed as she thought about the virtual
cornucopia of temptation that was only a few feet away in her bedroom in
the full walk-in closet and in the two large dressers whose drawers
brimmed with all manner of hosiery and lingerie, women?s things.
She had the thought that if she?d wanted to dress, here would have been
the place to start, with a friendly aunt. She was the "friendly aunt"
now, but offering to help Lane was really a non-sequitur, it did not
compute.
But, she had the thought that maybe over time it would. Lane was a more
than willing subject, at least he would be because she knew his weakness
now. Only a few years prior Christine Jorgensen had made that change
over in Denmark. She was short and slight at first too but when the
press and photographers were there to see her off that plane she sure
didn?t look like a man anymore. Maybe Joyce would try to give Lane what
he seemed to want, to help him dress up and dress properly, but she knew
that would make no difference. He wouldn?t get tired of it but maybe she
could scare him off? Or maybe she could shoot for that "cure" but as
she?d read there would never be a cure. No, any real "cure" would be at
the other end of the spectrum.
After his hot bath, his Nairing and a hot shower to clean off Lane was
totally hairless and smelled like lilacs from the bubblebath. His hair
had been shampooed with more of the lilac smelling scent. He?d been
totally dried off then dusted with a feminine scented powder. Joyce then
marched him back into her bedroom. "Well sweetie, what to you want to
wear? A pretty dress or just a blouse and skirt?" She said as she looked
Lane over while he stood there clutching the large pink terrycloth bath
towel around his slender, hairless waist. His head spun!
"Well?" Lane thought to himself, I?m caught. Had to happen sooner or
later I guess, but here we are now. He felt the redness on his cheeks
begin as he tried to beg off any "dressing" effort by Joyce by saying he
didn?t need any dress or skirts. But standing there all hairless he knew
something was going to happen. "We?re all alone at Joyce?s place, nobody
knows." Lane?s thoughts wandered. "What if I ask for help like she said?
What if I say I want to try it all, to wear everything?" The same
everything he had always wondered about, dreamed about. The whole
feminine way! But following the silent societal edict he kept silent.
Joyce moved her things on the bed aside. She folded up the floral rayon
dress with the bad zipper and put it in a plastic lingerie bag then set
it aside for her next trip into town. She gathered a new pair of Hanes
Alive nude support pantyhose, a new pair of opera length stockings, a
sturdy garter belt, ladies white nylon brief panties and a tight girdle
briefer. She found a pair of long, white nylon pants liners and a
matching white lace trimmed camisole. She pulled the pink bath towel
away and tossed him the filmy white nylon ladies briefs. "Well, let?s
get started sweetie." She stood there until finally Lane did indeed slip
into the panties. Joyce then opened the package and slipped out the new
pair of support pantyhose.
Well, at least she didn?t hit him, or get on the phone to his mom, Lane
thought. Yeah, this was going to be a punishment. She?d get him dressed
up a little, call him "sissy" and "princess" a few times and she?d laugh
and tease then promise never to tell as long as he stayed out of her
things and by the end of the day that should be it he figured.
A minute or two later he was standing up from the bed as Joyce was
finishing smoothing the legs and top of the new pantyhose and pulling up
the waistband. She clipped the white 6 strap garter belt around his
waist and as he sat back on the bed she rolled up each of the new sheer
beige nylon stockings and worked them up his legs then gartered them
tightly to the six dangling straps. Lane knew the girdle was next but
then he noticed Joyce coming near with a large white bra! "Lean forward"
she said. She?d been planning this! Lane gasped to himself. As she put
the white satin straps over his shoulders he instantly felt the weight
of the flesh colored breast forms that had been slid into pockets in the
new bra! He felt them sway and jiggle as he heard her clasp each of the
four hooks at the back band of the bra then adjust the straps until the
forms were properly supported and standing pendulously out. Before he
could question she slipped a white, lace trimmed nylon camisole over the
bra and adjusted those straps to fit as well.
She had him step into the tight, white girdle briefer with the white
satin front panel. But before she pulled it up she slipped his garter
belt, pantyhose and panties down. Lane gasped to feel Joyce pulling his
little "winkie" back tightly, she then pulled and worked his little
testes up and pushed them deep inside. With him still pulled back
tightly up went the panties, the support pantyhose with the panty top
pulled up high and tight on his waist. The garter belt was pulled up
tight, the stockings smoothed taut to the six white garter straps and
finally the girdle panty briefer was pulled up tight and high on Lane?s
waist, the white satin diamond panel at the flat front gleaming in the
room light. There was no trace of any bulge now, not even Lane?s tiny
bulge. Only a smooth "V" shaped mound was visible. Joyce had him step
into the long white nylon pants liner and when they were up and smoothed
the white lace trimmed nylon cuffs hung down to perfect ankle length.
"Go ahead, put your jeans back on but leave the shoes and socks," Joyce
said as she looked him over then motioned to her chair where his clothes
were. He sat on the chair and slipped into his jeans. But this time the
heavy fabric swished effortlessly up his nylon encased legs. He pulled
them up tight and zipped them and did up the belt and still saw the
smooth front, no bulge. Joyce showed up from her closet dangling a pair
of heels from her index finger. She had him sit down again. His nylon
clad feet slid easily into the black patent ankle strap pumps. She
buckled the T-straps tightly as he teetered on the full five inch
stiletto heels! Amazingly to Joyce, he stood up without a wobble and
without tripping.
"My, my, my. I see you?ve been practicing," Joyce said as he then took a
few steps around the room, a bit like a high wire act at first but soon
he was walking with ease and in some of her highest heels! He gathered
his T-shirt with the "Rat Fink" logo and managed to get it over the
large brassiere and it slid down effortlessly over the white nylon
camisole. He was just tucking the shirt in when Joyce noticed and had
him stop.
"Rat Fink? A Rat Fink T-shirt over my nicest camisole? I don?t think
so." She guffawed at the look. After another trip through the closet she
had him out of the T-shirt and jeans as well. She put him into a black,
high waist pair of hostess pants that fit perfect length wise, proving
to Joyce that Lane was indeed a petite man. She then took out a white
nylon blouse and slipped it on him, it had bubble sleeves and long, four
button barrel cuffs with white satin buttons and buttoned up the white
satin buttons in back then tied the small white bow in the front just
below the high neck collar. She did up the bow then tucked him into the
nylon lined hostess pants then pulled them up tight, zipped up the back
zipper then buttoned the two back buttons at the three inch wide
waistband.
She parted his hair in the middle and it flowed down to just past his
ears. He had a good start and soon it would be at least shoulder length
when she thought she could have something done with it. At least he
didn?t have a crew cut like most other young men. She added a spritz of
her perfume and some face powder and a light colored lipstick but
nothing more. Not this time. The face powder went on flawlessly due to
having the Nair removing any errant wisps of whiskers he once had. He
was totally smooth now. She then led him out of her bedroom so he could
spend the afternoon test driving all that finery.
Joyce marveled at Lane?s trim front and his "V" shaped tight muff at the
crotch of the hostess pants and how they looked as he minced around the
living room, his head in a daze. She also marveled at how the sheer
white blouse looked and how she could easily see the bra straps and the
satin camisole straps and the lace trim around the front of the
brassiere. A classic and very feminine look. She wanted to take him back
to the bedroom and add the red lipstick and mascara and eyeshadow, maybe
some earrings and a pearl necklace and maybe switch over to a real full
slip and a fully lined dress. But she knew that by the way lane looked
now that he was seemingly at his limit. "How do you feel now princess?
Do the clothes feel nice for you? Do you feel feminine?" she cooed in
her feminine lilt as if she?d just dressed a niece instead of a nephew.
"They feel, feel tight and sli... slippery I guess," Lane gasped as he
continued around the living room. He refrained from answering if he felt
"feminine" or not. And with his mind aflame at being found out and
feeling like a fish out of water he certainly couldn?t relax in any way.
But Joyce giggled, she knew his secret now, and she?d already pressed
his buttons, and he didn?t look all that bad, not at all. She felt a
sense of both excitement and the power of control now. The whole live-in
arrangement had now moved to a higher level. She got up and walked the
living room with him, showing him how to mince and wiggle and how to
turn and sit and hold his arms and how to stand chest out. He seemed to
be an exceptional student already!
The lesson and the mincing went on for over an hour. Looking to the
clock Joyce could see it was time for her coffee break downtown. Lane
choked a smile and a dry swallow as Joyce went off to change. She?d
offered to let him continue to lounge around the house and to even try
on a dress or two while she was gone but Lane?s excitement had been more
than satiated for the day, he felt spent and weak. After Joyce changed
out of her wrinkled dress she fixed her hair and makeup and left with
her purse on her arm mincing on her heels as always while Lane returned
to the living room in his blue jeans and Rat Fink T-shirt and tennis
shoes, the powder and lip gloss already wiped away. But he still felt
the smoothness of his now totally hairless body with only that trim
little "V" remaining below his eyebrows!
Joyce was alone today. This was a different cafe, more like a quiet
restaurant as she took her seat in one of the back booths. Neil
Henderson in his suit as usual took the other seat. The waiter brought
water and menus. They ordered a light lunch.
Joyce had let on to the possibility of dating Neil, that was why he was
taking her to lunch. They?d met at the ladies-lunch that time then she?d
had a bit of a chat a few days later with him that seemed to show a
slight interest. This was a continuation. But she never actually said
"she" was going to be his date.
"We like cooking out, grilling hot dogs and burgers in the early
evenings, we sometimes do chicken and steaks, a bit of a last hurrah for
summer on the patio. Why don?t you stop by, there?s always plenty of
food," Joyce said with her bubbly effervescence.
She then mentioned that her nephew Lane was still living with her. She?d
started the story and then continued on, being washed out of college,
being in his mid twenties, no girlfriend, no real friends at all to
speak of. Quite the yard and house keeper and she mentioned she?d taught
him to cook as well. She?d mentioned Lane?s "condition" in passing for a
second time. Poor Lane?s condition, not saying it was weird or even a
bad thing but she?d always smile then continue on with the conversation.
Neil shifted in his seat in the booth. He shook his head slightly like
something didn?t line up, which it didn?t. Like he and Joyce were on
different channels. What did Lane have to do with anything? "We get
together and you move out, he can stay and continue working at my place
if he wants," He said, not yet close to seeing true depth of the problem
or Joyce?s plan.
The lunch and drinks were served and Joyce and Neil relaxed and enjoyed
the atmosphere. The topic of conversation changed subjects. The lunch
ended and Joyce went on her way to do some window shopping while Neil
returned to his office suite. She?d made sure to talk to him further so
they?d made another date. Burgers on the patio? Maybe later. But
meanwhile they?d meet a couple more times and even share a call or two.
"But I have to mow and rake up more of the leaves. I don?t want to get
behind. I can?t wear all this under my jeans and I can?t wear this
blouse with the flower trim on the front neckline," Lane grumbled to
Joyce in her bedroom. He was in full lingerie once again but back in his
jeans and instead of the silky white blouse she lent him a ladies T-
shirt blouse that had a floral motif around the wide neckline. She
plucked the tennis shoes from his hands and handed him another pair of
her high heels! "I can?t go out in this top and I sure can?t do yard
work in heels like this," Lane gasped. He gasped once again when he
finished dressing then minced on his five inch high black patent leather
heels across the kitchen to look out the large glass doors. His heels
clicking loudly on the white tile floor. He stood at the doors to see a
service already busy mowing and raking the yard. "If you?re going to
dress like that you certainly can?t be doing any yard work anymore,"
Joyce said as she came in and poured herself a cup of coffee.
"Since the grill is clean and ready to go I?d like you to do a bit of a
salad and make up some hamburger patties for supper tonight. There?s
some coleslaw and potato salad in the fridge and you can heat up a can
of those Boston baked beans. We can have chips too. Nothing fancy," She
assured. Lane cringed at the answer to the slightly fussy meal when
Joyce mentioned that her friend Neil had been invited. "So set the table
in here for three," she said mentioning they didn?t need to sit out in
the breeze or deal with mosquitoes. And Lane was relieved to learn that
he could change back into his all guy clothes again, but no kid T-
shirts, something nice with a collar, and more dressy shoes like his
loafers, not the tennis shoes.
Neil arrived with a bottle of red wine and the dinner went as planned.
Neil and Joyce were out on the yard enjoying the late afternoon sun, she
was pointing out her new shrubs and flower bushes as Lane wiped down the
grill area and shut things down. Lane was cleaning up in the kitchen
when Neil and Joyce returned to the patio chairs. "He does quite a job
with the cooking and cleaning don?t you think?" she said. "...Yeah, he
even seems to move a bit like a woman too," Neil mentioned for some
reason that caught him slightly off guard as he noticed Lane through the
window wiping down the kitchen table and working at the kitchen sink.
But late while Lane was changing back from his feminine outfit for the
evening Joyce had made a few more changes.
"He is short and slight, a nice kid but slightly feminine isn?t he? Not
totally feminine, just here and there, ya know?" Neil wondered with the
only statement he could conjure at the moment. Joyce giggled as she
sipped her wine. But Neil was still after Joyce, his mind was on
anything besides Lane of all things.
"All done in here, you folks need anything else? I want to catch the
movie that?s starting," Lane said standing at the open glass doors. For
some reason Neil looked over and instead of seeing white sweat socks or
any socks at all he noticed the beige color, the shiny beige color of
woman?s stockings at his ankles! "We?ll have the last of the wine I
guess and that will be fine dear," Joyce said. They watched as Lane
brought out the bottle then returned to the house and closed the kitchen
door. He switched off the light as he left for the living room. Joyce
moved in.
"Lane isn?t really feminine, but I?ve been working with him. He?ll get
better." She giggled. "I?ve shaved him smooth from head to toe, I?ve
replaced all his shorts with ladies, lace trimmed nylon panties. I?ve
given him a pedicure in a nice gloss red. I started having him wear nude
support pantyhose as well. During the day I keep him in a bra with forms
and I keep him in high heels so he will get used to them," Joyce
chuckled. "I plan on starting him wearing women?s nylon gowns and
nighties to bed pretty soon too. I?ve already been working with his
cooking and his movements and feminine deportment and soon he?ll be
getting used to dresses and skirts," she assured. "But he?s in pants
now. And a man?s shirt," Neil added. "Well we don?t need to scare him
off now do we dear? But under that shirt he?s wearing my white, lace
trimmed nylon camisole. He does adore the feel of nylon," Joyce cooed.
He was washed up at school and couldn?t find a descent job so here he
was. And Neil already knew about him being in her things, trying on her
clothes and such so learning about the panties and pantyhose didn?t
throw him. He did notice the shine of the stockings. But it was strange.
He felt for some reason he wanted to just call it a night and leave.
It was obvious that Joyce was set in her single ways so that was it. But
she continued on, mentioning a plan that no one need ever know about.
Neil guffawed, and gasped in disbelief. But Joyce stopped him in his
tracks with her quiet voice at the patio table as he leaned in.
"How old are you Neil, 52? I passed that three years ago myself," Joyce
added. "I?m set in my ways and so are my other lady friends, well most
of them anyway. Any one of us could be the lady of your social calendar
but what fun is that at our age? Of course you could look for a younger
woman, but women these days? We know the odds of that." Joyce shuddered.
"And how long would your new wife put up with the stiletto heels, the
seamed stockings and the petticoats and dresses and outfits you like?"
She added. "For todays woman? Let?s be real. They?d say: ?who needs that
anymore?? But what if you could have a proper lady Neil. A "woman" to
satisfy your needs as the socialite you really want? A person nearly
tailor made for such a life, and, most importantly, one young enough to
look nice for decades?"
Women were changing, fast! So were the men but the girls nowadays had no
class or deportment. What could be done? Joyce mentioned the "cosmic
bubble" then she mentioned Christine Jorgensen among other things. Lane
wasn?t about to change, it was in his DNA.
He wasn?t suited to ever be much of a man anyway and would be much
better as a proper vintage housewife and a socialite. They both had
money and influence and they knew a whole lot of things could be
accomplished quietly.
How many people are really around or associate with the socialite
ladies? Not many. They travel in rare circles usually careful enough not
to stir up any intrigue or controversy lest it tip the gravy boat as
they say.
Lane could be worked with. Joyce assured. And in time and with effort
"Laine" would blend in to the strictly feminized social strata and
actually find the feminine limit he?d always dreamed about. She?d
studied his condition, she knew who he was and what he was and also,
with her help, just what he could become. "He could be one of the
Ladies-who-lunch. I would continue working with him to bring him up to
speed while at the same time you two could get to know one another
better," Neil sat back and guffawed again, in awe at the mere idea. "And
do what? Take him fishing? Toss the football around the back yard?"
Joyce didn?t take the joke, she was deadly serious.
He?d go to the salons, the shops, the church bake sales and the like and
he?d be seen on the lucky man?s arm whenever needed. He?d blend in,
nobody would ever know or have the slightest inkling that the new Mrs.
Neil Henderson was anything but a real and proper lady. Neil could have
the vintage housewife of his dreams, and the "cosmic bubble" would
continue on unchanged by the outside world. This was indeed a very rare
opportunity. It was almost a near certainty a chance like this would
never happen again.
Neil shook his head at the thought and said he?d had enough wine. Joyce
walked him through the house and out to his car. "You?ve been lovely
company. Why don?t we do this again?" Call me anytime," Joyce added as
he drove off.
