"Makeover" by Vickie Tern (transgender) 10, 8, 8
"Makeover" by Vickie Tern (VickieTern@aol.com). --- The man in this story married his wife without her knowing he was a crossdresser. That used to bother her, but suddenly she has embraced his lifestyle. Why the sudden change? Let's be accurate here. This man is not gay. He says at the beginning of the story that it is when he is dressed as a female that he is most ardently devoted to women. Uh-oh - 1445 words into the story we discover that his wife has not only agreed to let him crossdress, but she has also arranged for him to have a most splendid makeover and has hired an escort named Eric to take him to the ball. In Vickie's stories this usually spells penetration for the crossdresser's ass. When the man {known as "Jenny" when he's dressed as a female} returns from his date with Eric, he finds his wife sleeping in the arms of a naked man with whom she is sharing an obvious afterglow after a night of apparently riotous sex. What's a guy to do under the circumstances? He didn't dare enact the outraged husband of an adulterer, a victim of infidelity who has just caught his wife and her lover in the very act. Not dressed and looking the way he was. And so they make polite talk until the wife goes to the bathroom, and then he sucks her lover's cock. Enthusiastically. Then he sends his wife away; and while she talks on the phone, he has the other guy give it to him up the ass. After a while, we conclude that this is a tale of revenge. But who is revenging him/herself on whom? Actually, it's not revenge at all, but rather a gracious way to rearrange their lives so that everyone will be happy. My initial reaction to this story was, "Gimme a break!" Then I looked back over it, and I was forced to say, "Well, I guess this DOES make sense. Given these assumptions...." But those are mighty big assumptions. This isn't a story for everyone; but it is a highly creative story for people who enjoy fairly complex transgender plots.
