Roberta to Sasha, September 25, 1993"It has always surprised me that other women can be so cruel towards transsexuals. As women, our obstacles and battles are the same. Yet many women make every conceivable effort to delegate us to some sub-class, as if we were somehow less than human beings. I've never heard Patricia Ireland, President of Now, or any other feminist, speak out in defense of transsexuals. There are as transsexual phobic as the general population is homophobic.

"Good Jane. Now come over and sit at my vanity," ordered my Mother."Yes, Mom," I answered quickly.I went over to the vanity, but stopped when she cleared her throat."Try that again, Jane. Like a lady," she rasped out.I gulped slightly and tried to imitate the way I had often seen Susan walk. She made me do it five times, swatting me with the riding crop until I got it down well enough to suit her. Next, she sat me down at the vanity, used a curling iron to set my hair and did my make-up. I sat...

From Be Careful What You Wish For ..."What the hell is go..." It was then that I realized it wasn't my voice I spoke with. It was my wife's voice. My mind screamed, STOP!.It was also obvious that the person on the bed was having the same reaction. At the same moment, we broke for the bathroom mirror, stumbling all the way. Once there, we made the discovery neither of us wanted to make. It seemed our wishes came true.And I said, in my new feminine voice, "Honey, that stupid dragon worked. Now...

In college, I had studied psychology, even though I didn't pursue that line of work when I graduated. But I had learned a few things in those courses that proved useful now. One of them was hypnosis.I had become fascinated with hypnosis in college, even forming a study group with some other students to experiment with it. I had a natural aptitude for it, it seemed, and so helped a lot of friends with things like weight loss and stopping smoking. I hadn't had occasion to use it much recently,...

From Lady's Secret..."I could look the other way, since you were just one of his many pushers. Since we caught the dealer in something more ironclad, his 'distributors wouldn't have any more outlet, unless... they found another dealer."Peter caught Benjy staring deeply at him, as he said the last sentence.

"Good morning Susan," a bright feminine voice said."Who..." Susan started to ask but stopped in shock at the sound of his voice. It was not his. The voice he heard was high and softly feminine. It was even higher that the woman's who had just greeted him."That's right, your voice is different. You will get used to it. I know it must be disconcerting for you.""Who are you?"
