Tomorrow Magic

If I had magic, here is the first thing I would do with it:

Tomorrow, all misogynist men will wake up as women. Each of them will retain full awareness and memory of their entire previous life as a man – all the things they’ve ever done, said, and thought. They will still have the same attitudes and opinions as they do today – at first. 

But they will now be completely, totally, and undeniably women. They won’t understand how it happened. But they will know. And no one will believe them. 

All they can do is just start living their lives as women and do the best they can. They will remain as such until they get it. Then they can come back.

Each will be relatively as attractive or unattractive as a woman as they were as a man. A man who was a hunk will be a gorgeous woman. An unattractive man will be an unattractive woman. Average will be average.

Oh, and this is important. They will be YOUNG women – late teens or early 20s – no matter how old their male selves are today – so they can get the full experience. 

No. Sorry, Brother. You can’t start off with that increased assertiveness and confidence women usually gain (by necessity) as they age. You have to grow that yourself. (But go find one of those strong, older women if you’re ever in real trouble. They’ll have your back.)

Yeah and you don’t get to be already through menopause. You have a few decades (or until you get it) till then, so buckle up. Better get yourself a little calendar, some Midol or whatever over the counter pain reliever you find works best for you, and other supplies, and then plan all your life activities around approximately 80% of the days you had fully available to you as a man. 

These young women will begin to age normally every day from that point. How old they get as women depends on how long it takes them to get it. When they really truly get it, they can come back and be men again. 

But they will be different men. 

Or if they never get it and never come back – oh well! No more misogynist men! 

I have some plans for bigots, selfish or corrupt wealthy people, and run-of-the-mill bullies and jerks as well. I may share those later. Now where do I get me some magic?

About dahnajeen

I'm Donna Jean Hunter. I'm also Donna Cox - former married name and the name I share with my children and with my ex-husband, father of my children, and friend, David Cox. My 3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Patterson told me I was a great writer and would be an author when I grew up. She always had me read my stories to the class, and even took me around to the other classrooms to have me read to them. I'm pretty sure the other kids all hated me that year. I don't care though. I love Mrs. Patterson. Of course she did not know then about the Internet and blogging, how much of what people read would no longer be on paper - and how much of it would be done for free! - when I grew up. I have had 10 or 12 of my pieces published in college literary journals, and for a while during college, I actually received pay for working as a technical writer. Then for a few years I taught writing to teenagers as a high school English teacher. But other than that, I can't say I'm a writer in the sense that it is what I do for a living. But I am a writer. I have been all my life and can’t see myself ever stopping whether anyone reads it or not. I hope someone enjoys some of it.
