Looking Back from the Future
A Vignette
By Maryanne Peters
Back in 1999 when I was just 25 years old, I decided that I would enter the new millennium as somebody else. People make New Year’s resolutions every year, but I thought that a New Millenium resolution needed to be dramatic. I made sure that it was.
I was always an admirer of beautiful women, and it was not really sexual. I always put women on a higher plane than men, and I particularly admired women who put themselves on a higher plane than other women. I am talking about women of style, and I will use another word – discernment. Choosy women. Women who were very careful about how they looked and how they presented themselves to the world. I thought those women were special.
I simply decided that I wanted to be like that – even if only for a little while. If you have to put a label on it then femboy might have worked when I started, but then it really was only supposed to be for a short time. It was not as if I was transgendered and needed to be female, with surgical modification to achieve that. I was not one of those transvestites who might get sexual pleasure by appearing as female to themselves or others. No, I just want to walk the world proudly as one of those people I most admired – a lady – proud, stylish and discerning.
In wonder how many femboys get caught living their feminine lives, unable to return? I started taking the hormones early and then I discovered that sex for me had to be in the passive position. I had my share, but as you have probably worked out, I am fussy about my sexual partners. Sluttiness is the very opposite of style. I prefer to be stared at and desired rather than stroked a cuddled.
So, I have kept myself in good shape, and thanks to a small double sacrifice I have kept all my hair and I keep that in shape too.
But that sacrifice was for more than just vanity. I realized as I found myself older and still loving the way I lived, that I had a purpose in life – a noble altruistic purpose.
I walk proudly now as somebody who had a role to play in saving the world. Femmes like me (femboy seems no longer appropriate to me) have the lead role to play in the “femme not fatherhood” movement that swept the world starting only 10 years ago. Now there are millions of us who are choosing the joys of beauty and non-reproductive sex over contributing to over population. The answer is to start while you are young. Use your sperm to paint the walls, not destroy the planet. Grow to maturity like me, loving the femme lifestyle – living for beauty and pleasure, and making the world a better place!
Why not join the movement?

A question: What will become of all of these femboys in the future?
Author's Note:
I don't normally post these vignettes (under 500 words) here on BCTS but this one I posted on Fictionmania yesterday and it drew an interesting response. Thanks to Stana for the image.
