Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind and Revenge is a dish best served COLD are both proverbs that best showcase story.

Just out of curiosity, are you a Robert Heilein fan?

excellent story very good read and description well done

Oh yes, I must comment on one more thing, which I think I can do without giving away much more of the ending than has already been done: The author plays heavily on the whole feminist victim thing, that all men are "evil oppressors," in order to contrast that with a main character who turns out to have been married, who loved and cherished his wife well, and who risked his life (and sacrificed his way of life) to avenge her murder. I once told one embittered woman: "We're not all like that, but YOU'LL never find one; he could be standing right in front of you, and YOU won't recognize him!" Playing the victim blinds people to what is right in front of them, that way. It's a warning that those groups who organize their identities and politics around victimhood will likely never heed.

The hate and rage in this story is a palpable, tangible thing. I begin to wonder just how much of the TG community are refugees from the pogroms of women against men?

This is written oh so extraordinarily well. By the time the women in this story get their comeuppance, you may come to feel as I do that a quick death was far too kind. Laid between the lines is an object lesson in the ways of the world and of victimhood, as well: people seldom strike back at the bullies who injure and torment them, but instead take their wrath out upon gentle people who have never injured anyone and, in so doing, themselves become that which they despise the most -- bullies. As a social disease, it is transmitted just like rabies.

I do have to kibbitz one little bit of the story, though:

>>"You know," Diana said, "I once had a list of things I promised not to do if I ever became an Evil Overlord. One of them was that if I was going to kill my archenemy, I would never say, 'But first, I have something to tell you.' and then proceed to bore him out of his skull; I would simply shoot him. But here I am, Darth Vader in drag, and I find that I have something to tell you. My revenge demands it."

More like, your story demands it! <giggle> What a fun bit of tongue-in-cheek on this little plot device that the author uses to give us the main character's back story. And she actually managed not to "bore me out of my skull." Amazing, darling, simply amazing! =)

One last thought: If you like this sort of thing, you'll love Tyrone Slothrop's Angel stories. Other authors besides Ty have written in hir Angelverse; there is a category and links page pointing to them on Top Shelf/Big Closet

GLAD TO FIND YOU HERE AS WELL AS AT BIG CLOSET. I AM STANMAN63 THERE. RIGHT NOW, ERIN HAS BLOCKED ME FROM BEING ON SITE FOR A WHILE. DON'T WORRY, IT'S TEMPORARY. I AM GLAD THAT YOUR STORIES ARE HERE. i REALLY DO LIKE DIANA HUNTER. SHE IS ONE TOUGH COOKIE. i HOPE SHE HAS MORE TALES TO COME.

a great story turned upon the head by one computer expert what a way to go well written &well done wonderfull story

Yes, I too liked the ending. It was unexpected, and I'm not sure I like the shooting. I think I agree with the idea one reader had of Gloria and Slut getting together

I first read this story on anohter site, but did not review it.  I will make up for that omission here.  The story is well told, and has some excellent plot twists. Diana is the kind of charaacter I like, who does not sit back and bemoan 'her fate' but does something about it.  No Stockholm Syndrome here.  The ending was violent, but justified.

Well its nice to finlly read a story where the victoms gets their revenge on a group of evil women. I did not like the killing I personaly think revenge should be a long process that lets that person feel the pain and humiliation you went through. But seeing Sluts background killing would fit his/her idea of revenge. I think a single bullet was to good for them.

Would like to see more of Diana as she come to grips with being a woman and her hunting down the sisterhood.

This is only the second or third story that I have read in this website. It is well written and is constructed beautifully. I, "love," happy stories with, "feel-good," endings. I also appreciate and enjoy stories about maids. I don't spend much time at the computer and this story had me capitivated. I, "had," to keep reading it. The suprise ending did precisely that to me. However, I do abhor bloodshed and killing. While justified, perhaps, there could have been a role-reversal instead of the killing. I would have, "loved," to see a developement where Gloira falls in love with, "Slut," and produces complications with the, "Sisterhood."

You should write more stories. Perhaps, one day I'll have the courage to send in my life's tale.

I, "tip my (maid's) cap," to you. Well Done!

Susan

a neat story well written enjoyable and with a twist well done

A reader's comment on another story says, "For once I'd like to read a good revenge story on this site".

Well, he's got his wish here.  

(I wonder if he has read it?)

You hit all of the right buttons with this story. I have wondered how anyone can allow themselves live as a slave 24/7, my feeling is live free or die. I didn't see the punch back as testosterone doing it as much as was a very pissed human doing it, without remorse. This story is a breath of fresh air that was much needed. Thank you very much for writing such an excellent story.

Tina -

I am so good to see your work.  I avidly read your stories at you previous site, but lost that address.  I'm glad you're back.

I love the way the tables was turned great story . Started as the normal shoe licking maid curtsy story. Ended as TG hits back hard. I thought it was great.

FINALLY!!!!  A "femdom" story that I can LIKE!!!  By GOD, it's about time someone wrote something like this.  In a way it's a kind of Vickie Tern-about tale!  VERY, very well done!

                              Cathy_t_ said that!

I read this before, and am glad you posted it here! A story after my own heart just like Lakeside View.
  We need more like this -- please, write more!

FINALLY!  A story where the good guys win!  And no femme sissy revenge; There's an estrogyn body, for sure, but the mind is pure testosterone - just blow them away!  BRAVO!  (Although I do hope that Diana eventually comes to enjoy being a T-girl.)

powerful story. . .powerful imagery, but very dark.

I am probably going to have disconcerting dreams tonight.

warm furry hugs
