Epiphany

Enchanting portrayal of Jenny's character and the underlining yearnings she has to establish a Female Led (if not even Supremacist) sex role reversal relationship with a male. I really don't see much cruelty in her actions as more than a few here have criticized.

What seems to be going on is action leading to an 'EPIPHANY' which is what the title describes.  It is not anger or bitterness or revenge that I think drives her, but a latent awareness of the kind of Female-male pairing necessary for her to fulfill her true goals and identity in life.  Feminizing a male is integral in any romantic or sexual interaction.... and William would naturally be the obvious male to mold to her needs as he was the vehicle and catalyst of the ridicule that set things in motion and afire.

If this story were to continue, yes, Jenny would be domineering and arbitrary and demand obedience, but I suspect it would be with a true underlying love for 'Wendy' in at worst manifesting in a patronizing, protective yet highly chivalrous manner.

Why does this seem out of the realm of decency?  The male sex has generally done worse for the last 10's of 1,000's of years in sexual relationships.

RIDICULOUS AS ALWAYS!

Why not just enjoy the story instead of labelling William as a TG?

Comment by Yoron on 05/20/08
Yep Diana. I agree, one can see when someone has a fetish that takes over a proper story. And that's what happens in this story, it's at least one chapter to long. sorry but that's the way I red it.

It had possibilities, but they weren't used.

Cheers

I really don't understand when people say that effeminate or 'wimpy' boys deserve to be humiliated. That's a shameful disgusting thing to say, nobody deserves it.

As for William, I sort of envisioned things getting out of hand with the Jenny, and William is hurt. Badly, and never really forgives her.

Oh he becomes a real TG, but that's more out of necessity for his mind than out of desire. Laughing at someone once is one thing, totally humiliating them is quite another.

I really loathe Jenny and I have a lot of empathy for poor William. He strikes me as a transsexual with a lot of low self-esteem and Jenny is just preying on that. All in all, she's a bitch who needs to be taken down a notch.

a brilliant story of a girl bully taking her revenge on wiliam for laughing as her what a way to go i wish again it was me well done you should write more of this story or something similar to the brilliant

Comment by jasmine on 08/24/04
Well, I think it is OK even through we would like to see what happens with this relationship, I kind of dread what is next. This girl is a bully and this boy is kind of a weak willed wimp. With him playing the female part and the bully playing the male part, this relationship will probably be the violent beating type of relationship. He will end up with a black eye and broken bones for the least provocation. Like the movie 'sleeping with the enemy' and the towels being uneven scene. He had better run while he can and get his parents or someone that can protect him.

You lied! This is not complete! This cannot be complete as it is! Nope, it just cannot end like this! I hereby call on all your readers to send protest e-mails demanding that you continue this story till there is a PROPER CONCLUSION! GEEZE!!!!!

You are the meanest writer I know, and I know a lot of writers as you know Sarah (if you had a middle name I would put it in here) Bayen! (My mom always used all of my names when she was more than a little peeved at me)

Now see here, I started reading your stuff at the BC, and then saw your new one here at Crystal's, and now I have read them all and this one has to be completed. You are driving me crazy with this; leave you hanging style of yours! GEEZE!

Ok, enough of this. Once again you have produced a wonderful story of superb quality. You go girl, you are destined for greatness!

PS. My stories pale in comparison to these! I had better work harder or I will just fade away! Giggle, giggle.

I love this story.  I agree that it could be extended, the characters are so good and their relationship between William and Jenny is developing.  
However, I think the story finishes perfectly; the reader can easily imagine several different situations for the characters.  It is Sarah's skill in creating such true-to-life characters that encourages the reader's imagination.  

Comment by Jane Hudson on 08/18/04
Great story don't know if William /Wendy is full blown TG but I think he loves her but is also scared of Jenny and being her girl maybe the way to her heart seems to be maybe a love story there I love your storys the girl the boy the boy the girl but in the end they well you know.More please.  My dear with a TS winning Big Brother. Only saw once dont own a telly is Britian become TS TG land .I am Ts and seem to do ok and where I live there are a fair few around.Maybe your storys more true than we know.I like to think so.

Comment by jami on 08/18/04
I'm totally hooked on your writing Sarah. Please keep them coming. It doesn't seem to matter whther you tell the story from the hapless victim's or the perpetrator's point of view. The stories are equally captivating. Keep up the good work! Hugs, jami.

Hi Sarah,  :)

You have another winner here!

Comment by fregen on 08/18/04
Sarah!!  You leave me *aching* to know how William/Wendy reacts to all this.  Yes, I know he does a *lot* of glaring and pro forma? resistance to the dressing.  Then, of course, he goes along with whatever Jenny tells him to do.  But he still is an enigma.  What does he think about all this???

Jenny is an open book.  She's on a power trip and really getting off on feminizing William.  Guess her hormones are finally kicking in.  I really had to laugh when she finally cleans out her closet and starts inventorying her outfits.  Just like a girl, except she's doing it for William!  What a hoot!

Another great story.  Thanks Sarah.

Comment by Pippa K. on 08/18/04
I should add to my previous comment that there is something else Sarah does better than anyone, and that's revealing a growing lust that the tormentor finds for the victim.  The epiphany of "Epiphany" was, to large extent, quite similar to that of "Neighbours," although I rather enjoyed the latter when the "victim" realizes the power of this lust and neatly turns the tables.  To some extent, we have to assume that something similar has developed here, but previous observations, below, note that our William seems too much a dishrag and the ending just more of the same.  I would encourage you to take the ending a little further, either to recapture the thrill of "Neighbors" or, if you prefer, to be a little more definitive either about William's willful submission, or a hint of defiance to come.  

Comment by Jezzi Stewart on 08/18/04
I would really like to read this story from William's point of view.  Either William really is a spineless wimp, in which case he's getting what he deserves, or, as I would like to think, he really really likes dressing up, maybe is already a CD, but realizes that if he admits that "Peter" the bully will stop "helping"; hopefully, he's playing her like a maestro (misstro ??).  Shades of Brer Rabbit!

Comment by TiffFox on 08/17/04
I love it, the ending was oh so perfect

It is sa that's it's the end

no high street visit, no gradual acceptance by wendy

no turnaround in attitude by peter as 'he'll' need to start treating wendy right to get 'her' to go further into a boy-girl relationship

no realization by Wendy that she has the power, no chance to see wendy use it

Comment by Karen Page on 08/17/04
Hi,

Another nice story.  William is encouraged along with only the threat of loosing a ‘friendship’.  Is he really that weak that he would go along with dressing if there wasn’t a subconscious desire?

I thought the last line summed it all up:
“He was the girl who was going to make a man of me!”

I wonder how long before William/Wendy came to the same conclusion?


It is also nice to see British items such as tights.


Hugs

Comment by Susie Johnson on 08/17/04
Another fabulous story - this one really gets to me and I can't even begin to tell you how much I long to be the 'victim' in such a scenario.

I dream of meeting a girl like this and it's stories like this one that make the reality bearable until, hopefully, I find her. It's even better that you write about places I know; although it is possible to have (a certain poor imitation of) fun in Eastbourne...

Please, please, please write more: much more to this and your other stories as I can't get enough of them!


Comment by leah on 08/13/04
Well, here we are, Wimpy William poised on the edge of a cliff that (as far as we clueless readers know) he doesn't even know exists.

Just what plot will Sarah place in Jenny's mind?

But of still greater interest would be an answer to what percentage of Sarah's readers would like to be in Limp's place before any of us really know the answer to that. Maybe a poll question?

Comment by Jezzi Stewart on 08/11/04
Good beginning.  Another totally clueless mom.  If Jenny was behaving on the day of the wedding at all in line with her feelings, I'm surprised mom and everyone else wasn't mad as hell at her.

Comment by Pippa K. on 08/11/04
Sarah, I don't believe ANYONE does tomboy or flaming petulance nearly half as well as you do.  The combination is completely precious!  I laughed so hard I nearly wet myself!  More, more!

Comment by riottgrrl on 08/10/04
This is a promising beginning to a story that touches all the bases—Bridesmaid, Wedding Dress or Married, etc.

You go, girl!
