This story needed more dialog. The narative nature of the story slowed it down. What dialog there was seemed wooden. I liked that it was told from the wife's point of view.

I would have liked to know how Frank did at the bachelorette party, That could have come out in a dialog with his wife, maybe the next day.

The story is a good try, it just didn't have that little extra that would have made it really good.

WOW!... Funny.... sweet and not too trashy.  Nice story book ending!

Reading through the comments already posted, I definitely come out in the 'love it' column;  I think m/f couples often fantasise what it would be like to be their partner, I certainly do ~ but few would want it permanent;  I think having one enjoying and one hating the transition was just about perfect, and I too enjoy the happy endings.  Most of us are married and we do want to stay that way.
Love Tina xx

Yes, Pervette has it exactly right: body-swap stories get old pretty easily, but this one is just perfect. And it provided ample food for thought in this, our real world.

For once Frank didn't get what he wanted -- to stay female. But he took it with good grace and obviously learned from the experience. He may have also learned that Rhonda was not only his wife, but that she had a personality that appealed to other people.

No matter, who has "it" better in life, this story reminds us that a little extra attention to significant others (NOT necessarily of a different gender) may garner us insight that leads to wonderful changes for the better.

A real delight. Funny, because I don't generally care for body-swap
stories, but this one was a real winner. It seemed to explore the
characters' responses to the swap in rather more depth than usual,
& as Jezzi noted, it was a new twist for the woman to dislike her
new body & want the old one back as soon as possible. Considering
what a rotten deal Mother Nature hands to women in general, I sus-
pect this is sheer fantasy, but it's a nice fantasy, just the same.

I really liked the turnabout from the usual, the fact that the man really enjoyed being a woman and wanted to stay one while the woman couldn't wait to turn back.  Also, I love happy endings.

Realistically, the first sex act of a woman who had turned into a man would last about 10 seconds, just like any teenage boy's first time.  Because she wouldn't be used to the sensations, and she wouldn't have any idea HOW to stall ejaculation.  But somehow Rhonda lasts 15 minutes, and then doesn't "let herself" get soft.  That's pretty funny.  Other than that, a good story.

Nice story, and enlightening.

It reminds me of a discussion on identifiying the gender of an author. Men often inject unrealistic attitudes and responses into their female characters. I'd often wondered if women shake their heads and sigh when reading them. Do women really believe control of the male anatomy is so simple and that men are just self centered for not exercising that control?

Your story was food for thought.

Comment by Jackie on 08/24/03
Ok. Women are better than men. Message received and understood, now write something with some conflict, or storyline.

Good story! I always look forward to reading you stories.

Comment by Trainmaster on 08/24/03
Who is Jackie? And to where did Susan disappear? Apart from those, it's a cute story and touching. Nicely paced. Just the right hints of lifestyle differences. And talk about reconciliation -- I love a happy ending. Except for poor Judy, of course, who probably knew it was coming sooner or later. Frank and Rhonda deserve each other. And man, are you prolific.

another wonderful and imaginitive story. Keep up the good work and you'll end up with as many stories posted as me
