encourage her son and I to be so girlish?

The next morning, the "cache" garment seemed to have molded itself to me. I no longer had the pressing need to remove it. I decided to leave it on for the weekend. Lee and I even made a $25.00 bet that the other would remove the garment first. I hate losing bets, but I didn't know what winning this one would cost me.

When we arrived back at school, the fraternity brother's couldn't believe it was us.

Chapter Four

I was determined to win the bet-as was Lee. We wore the garments constantly. It's relentless pressure seemed to take away our energy-we even ate smaller meals because of our controlled waist lines. Our natural posture was girlish in the way we walked and sat.

By the end of a couple weeks, we had lost some weight and seemed to become more docile and frail. It was so gradual, I didn't even notice. My 27 inch waist became 24 inches. My new body shape seemed to take the hard edges out of my life. The new roundness of my body was a reflection of a new attitude.

In the past, I ran about always busy with something or some project. But now Lee and I sat in our room for hours at a time. We'd read, talk about school or do our nails, sometimes barely moving for hours. My grades improved with this new focus. Our trousers were loose at the waist, tight at the hips, so around the room we wore skirts and t-shirt dresses.

We barely thought about sports such as football anymore. Lee and I became like brothers, or should I say sisters; helping each other with our hair, discussing our clothes, doing our nails, even wearing each other's dresses.

Even the composition of our room took on a new look: feminine makeup everywhere, nylons hung in the shower, slips and lacy bras scattered about, and dresses hung over chairs.

My mother called. She felt badly, but had to cancel her plans to spend the summer with me; some national crisisactually a foreign trip, but she promised to visit at Easter.

Lee's mom had asked me to travel with them this summer to a resort in the mountains. I accepted and looked forward to the summer break and the chance to get out of girls clothes.

But the next week, Lee came to me and said, "Mom asked me to spend the summer with her as a girl. She said it would be more fun and since we've been dressing as girls, why not?" "A girl all summer! Are you crazy? You promised I could go too, and I don't want dress this way during the summer. It'll be too hot, what with the padding and all."

"Oh, we still want you to go. But you'll have to go as a girl. You can't dress like a boy, and share a room with a girl, can you?"

"I guess not, but I like to swim and stuff."

"Well, I guess I can tell you now. Remember that doctor

I visited for my ear infection. He's making it so I can be more feminine during the summer. Those pills I've been taking are female hormones. Mom thought it wouldn't hurt if I was a little softer and had a few curves. They're already taking effect. Take a look."

He opened the front of his shirt and his nipples were swollen and sticking out about 1/2 inch. Lee said, "At first, I just noticed the swelling, then my nipples became sensitive and grew larger. I go to the doctor every couple weeks then a month before summer he's going to do something to help me be more comfortable and feminine for the summer. You should go to him too."

My hand went to his nipple; it felt so soft to the touch. "I don't know, it seems so drastic. Don't you want to meet some girls this summer?"

"My mom says I've got lot's of time for that. She says that we'll have fun and hopes you go."

It was either summer school or go with Lee as a girl. I decided to go.

As the weeks went by, Lee's body changed, and so did the way he carried himself. Most people wouldn't have noticed it, but I did. His chest area, even when dressed as a man, looked soft and he seemed to carry his arms differently as he walked.

A couple of days later, Lee said that he had a little surprise for me-a doctors appointment. I resisted and said, "I don't want to go to any doctor that specializes in feminizing boys."

But Lee said, "C'mon, it's just an appointment. Besides you don't want to look like a string bean next to me, do you? The doctor is just going to offer some suggestions on how to make us more comfortable for the summer. No big deal." "I like being a boy. I don't want my body feminized." "Just come with me for the education."

I don't know why I went to the doctor; I could have
