This story is set after the events that happened in the final Chapter of Beverly Taff's The Feminine Queendom 90
She kindly gave her permission for me to continue with this storyline and to use characters from her story.

The Queen was having her bi-weekly briefing with Em.

"We couldn't have had a better outcome if we tried. I'm going to enjoy the next poll results."

"Yes it should help even the most committed feminists see that they were being led by crazed fanatics. It wasn't until I expressed anything less than total hatred of men that they showed their true colors. A bomb in Vicky's and my neck. So the stuff about murdering babies and shooting men didn't surprise me."

"You know her party has disowned her now? They have also joined the other feminist party. They are now the UFP. So they don't split the vote. I'm sure we are still on course to win. We have the televised party debate in a few weeks, there will just be me and the Kelly Moore, the combined party leader. I'm sure she will have a few tricks up her sleeve."

"Em, I have an idea about that. Vicky has suggested naming Peter as deputy leader of the UCEP. She thinks he will be ideal in the live debate."

"I know he's won the hearts of many women, but dare we risk an unknown in something as important as this?"

"An average man in the UQ, no. They would be full of resentment, and probably get angry. You couldn't blame them. Peter is different. Vicky's been seeing a lot of him. She's with him now at the hospital. He's just had his plastic surgery."

"So why is he different? He was due to be castrated by this woman's party. That would upset most men."

"You saw him on the roof. That Australian bodyguard was about to shoot that demented woman, Peter stopped her. He even asked why she hated men. Vicky says he doesn't feel anger, just sadness that men are treated so badly. Kelly Moore will see a man and do what all feminists do to men. She'll try to get him angry, and when he starts to shout, she'll say; Look typical man."

"So you think he will keep calm? I must admit, having a man in a position of power would help the men see we are serious. It would piss off Kelly Moore too."

"Oh sorry for swearing ma'am."

"Don't worry about it Em. I think it will piss her off too. Peter has a high IQ. I'm sure you can trust him to research what he needs to do. I'll get Vicky to ask him today."

The question was asked, and Peter agreed. He told Vicky of his plans to go into space, but knew it would be impossible if the UCEP didn't win the election. He had three weeks to prepare. The first thing he did was contact shadow. He asked if there was a way to get a sneak preview of what the UFP were going to use to back up their debate. The shadow hackers started to hack.

In Australia Charlie was spending some much needed rest with Chloe and the children. They were relaxing on the beach when his phone rang. It was Katherine Bergson, the defense minister.

"Katie, what's up?"

"Nothing bad Charlie, in fact something to your advantage. I have been talking to the PM. She is so grateful to you for what you have done for Australia, and her boys."

"I've never met he boys Katie. Not sure what you mean."

"Her boys were 10 and 8 years old when you came on the scene. She was facing the choice of having them feminized or letting them stay male and have a sad lonely life. What we want to do is set up a company with you as its head."

"A company doing what? Why would I want to run it?"

"The Australian asteroid mining company Charlie. The AAMC. You will be the owner of all the Dawn craft. You built the engines, but we build the craft. The ownership will pass over to you if you agree the terms. The government will take 50% of the profit. Government's aren't good at running profitable companies. They tend to become political footballs."

"OK, I'll need to talk this over with Chloe before I give you my answer."

"No problem. Just remember though. I know you want real equality and it is happening slowly. Think what it would mean to the men of Australia. The largest, richest company owned, and run by a man."

"Now that would be something. The fighters would stay with the armed forces I assume."

"Of course, we can't have those in private hands can we Charlie."

Charlie discussed it with Chloe, who thought it was a great way to encourage men to get more involved with the new industry. She also knew running a company with all the complex safety and licensing agreements would drive him to despair.

Chloe had a solution. Jane Anston. Charlie didn't dislike her, she had never treated him badly. This was because she knew what an asset he was to her company.

Charlie agreed, he named Juliet as CEO, and Jane Anston the vice president. They were all to receive a share of the profit. Charlie insisted that the company be led by engineers. He had an idea to increase the amount of mining ships tenfold. This would mean more jobs for men in the gravity shipyards and more in space. These men may not be educated as well as the women, but they would soon be richer than many of them. Money talks.

Back in the UQ, the live debate began at 7pm. Kelly Moore was not told that she would be facing Peter until a few hours before the start. She hastily made adjustments to her notes, and was secretly pleased she was going up against a mere male. She knew his display of bravery had gained him affection with some women, but he was still the enemy.

She made her opening statement and told the audience that men could never be equal as they were not intelligent enough to have the responsibilities that women have. Peter pointed out that boy’s education was stopped when they were fourteen. He told her that intelligence and education were not the same thing.

"The rare cases of intelligence in males is rewarded by conversion into females. We never wasted a good brain." She said.

"I have an IQ of nearly 150. Intelligent males had a choice under feminist rule, play dumb or mutilation. Many chose to play dumb."

Kelly shifted uncomfortably. If he really did have a high IQ she may not get an easy ride as she had been expecting.

"Imagine what you could have been Peter, without all that horrible testosterone in your body. We have all seen how destructive that makes men. Play the clip please."

The first clip showed a man climbing out of a delivery truck screaming at a woman. There were old pictures of battered wives. Children and families suffering in wars. Men killing each other and mistreating women.

She smiled at him, and thought to herself, answer that one your silly little man.

"Yes that was horrible. Those men were bad people."

"No, they were bad males. Men do bad things. Men have always been aggressive and women have always suffered due to it."

"Kelly, you are quite right."

Kelly thought she had won. It always worked putting males in their place. This would help win over the public, then she could reverse all these new freedoms’ the men had been given.

Peter continued; "Yes, Men have done bad things due to being males. They have also done amazing things. They have invented most of the technology you use today. The society you feminists have created waste nearly 50% of the potential of the population. Men made that mistake over a hundred years ago. Then things changed and got better for women. When the original feminists came to power they did it by promising true equality. They lied and disenfranchised men. It's been downhill ever since."

"Women are happier now, without interference from men." She said.

"Are they? Princess Victoria told me how many drug treatment centers she had opened. I looked onto it. You and previous governments have been hiding the truth for years. There are huge amounts of deaths by drug overdoses. Suicides and deaths among men were not recorded, you never cared about them. Unnatural female deaths have been increasing since the alienation of men. Women need men, and men need women. Most of the world works like this. Trying to force lesbianism on straight women is the main cause. There was a report done by a previous government. It was never published."

"That's nonsense we don't need men. The world would be better without them. "

"I don't think we'll ever know that. Most of the world recognizes the need for both genders. We complement each other. Now, because of the way you have treated men, if you were invaded tomorrow, they would probably help the invaders."

"You admitted yourself, that men were violent."

"I did, but then we aren't the only sex guilty of such acts. Please run the clip."

The video showed security footage of General Wilson shooting a Taser into the back of Charlie's ground suit.

"That was the inventor of the gravity engine that General Wilson shot. He fled with his wife to Australia. Which now has the fastest-growing economy in the world. Wasted potential!"

The next part showed the driver being kicked, stomped on, then tasered to death. Then there were several blurred videos of men being executed by prison guards. It switched to camera footage of police opening fire on a large group of men and women protesting. The picture showed the large pile of body bags. The final part showed a boy running across a field and General Wilson pressing the detonator and the boy's neck exploding. Then it froze on Wilson's sickeningly happy face.

"I'm sorry to have to show that last part again. I asked permission of the boy's mother to show that clip. She said, if it would stop any other mother losing her son, I could."

Kelly gulped. That last image was so powerful; she could see the shock on the faces of the audience. Most of them had not seen the clip before.

She just blurted out, "Women can't live with men, it just doesn't work."

"Please continue the video." said Peter.

The clip showed children playing together at school. Boys and girls together. Two teenager's holding hands and kissing. It showed them getting married and having the first dance. This faded to them decorating a nursery. Images of the woman giving birth holding her husband’s hand as she pushed. Then the parents playing with a boy and girl on the beach. The children were grown in the next part, leaving home. The last part showed the elderly couple kissing and holding hands watching a sunset.

Peter waited until the image faded. He saw many of women in the audience were wiping their eyes. There was a small amount of men, who were trying to look unaffected.

"This is what a real family is. This is what the feminists have denied you all for years. Support and love. Women, the bond between a father and a daughter is very special. Men, you have been used to father children you may never meet. Women, If you prefer other women, that's fine , just don't force your preference on everyone else. Let them decide. We need to end this war now. Please use your vote wisely, vote UCEP."

Kelly took a deep breath, and said; "Please ladies don't go back to the bad old days when we were slaves to men. Vote UFP.

There were two weeks until the election.
