Daughters of the American Evolution - Susan, Ch 01
Stories from one front of the global war
* * * *
This story is part of a series called
"Daughters of the American Evolution."
The stories are all based on the concept of an allegedly sinister (some say beneficent) organization called 'Family Interactions Therapists'', or FIT, that has put into action a plan to subliminally convert every female on earth to lesbianism, and to non-violently reduce the number of men on earth by 98%. The first story, and the best place to get a look into how this mysterious organization "converts" women, is "Daughters - Rebecca, Ch. 01-04" in the Incest story section.

"C'mon Susan, I really think you'd enjoy it. I mean, that''s
why
I want us to do it!" Joe, my husband, said.
He actually thought I'd believe that.
"You mean,
you'd
enjoy it," I retorted.. "Everyone knows that guys get off on having two women at once." I was really starting to feel angry - not so much at the thought of being in bed with another woman, though I'd never really considered such a thing, but at my own husband for having such little respect for my intelligence.
"No, no, no," he said. "It wouldn't be me having two women at once - you're all the woman I could ever want - it's the thought of you having fun with another woman. Honest." He really was transparent, and kind of dense. Still, he was my husband. While I wasn't about to let him have another girl in our bed, there was no need to hurt his ego or his pride. Maybe if I just put him off...
"I'll tell you what," I said. "I'll think about it, okay?" He hugged me then, and nearly broke my ribs.
"Oh thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!" he exclaimed, his blue eyes alight with excitement.
"I only said I'd think about it," I said as he rushed off to work. Leave it to a man to take a piece of ribbon and try to weave a set of draperies out of it!
Of course, I had absolutely no intention of ever sharing my man, and our bed, with some strange woman. That was just crazy, and I could see it breaking up the marriage of every woman foolish enough to ever let it happen.
Joe and I - I'm Susan Wright, and he's Joe Wright - had been married for fifteen years . I was thirty five, he was thirty seven. We'd met in college, at the College of Charleston, located in South Carolina. I'd been on the pom pom squad, and he'd been the kicker on the football team, but please don't think we were complete idiots for that. I was a bio-science major, and he was in engineering.
I'd gotten a pretty good job supervising a microbiological analytical lab with my degree, and Joe had gotten a good job with an engineering firm in Raleigh right after we got married, four weeks after we graduated. Our lives had been pretty conventional since then. We hadn't been blessed with any children, but we filled that void in other ways, by helping out at our church, and with volunteer groups.
Now, you might be wondering about our love life, since Joe was pestering me about another woman. It's true we hadn't been making love as much as we had when we were first married, but isn't that true of every marriage? We would normally have sex about once every two weeks to four weeks, and I'd manage an orgasm at least a quarter of those times, although the last year had been a little thin for me in that regard.
Joe, of course, came every time, and pretty quickly too, then he'd fall asleep. It wasn't his fault, men are built that way.
I still had a certain reluctance to use masturbation as a means of release. I know consciously that there's nothing wrong with that, but a somewhat strict upbringing had nonetheless imposed some subconscious inhibitions against it. So, there was a certain level of frustration, and it had been over a year since I'd cum last. That might have had something to do with subsequent events.
I went back to cleaning the kitchen before leaving for work. I had some volunteer mentoring to do at the church school later, and Pilates after that. My schedule was pretty full.

"So, have you thought about, um, my idea?" Joe ventured after dinner.
"Your idea?" I said.
"Yeah, you know...having another woman to help you have a really great orgasm?""
"That's not how I remember the conversation," I said. "Didn't you want to have me,
and
you, and some strange woman in our bed?"
"Well, yeah, but it's the same thing," he said. "Please think seriously about it, okay? And there might be some woman at my office who, uh, could do it."
"Are you seeing another woman? At your OFFICE?" I nearly screamed.
"No, you know I'm not," Joe said. "I'm either here, or in the office - working - or volunteering with the flag football team at church. You KNOW I'd NEVER cheat on you!"
"Well, make sure you don't. I think I'd kill you if I knew you were cheating on me. Or at least divorce you and take you for all you're worth. You're a good husband, Joe, why do you want to do this?"
"Don't you think our love life could use a little spice, honey?" he said. "I mean, it's the same old...it can't be much fun for you." I softened at that. I appreciated that my man was thinking of me.
"Alright...I really will think about it," I said. "But I'm not making any promises."
"Oh, great," he said. And I'll check with this contract worker, Sandy, at the office - IF you say it's okay, I think you'd like her."
"What makes you think she'd want to do something like that?" I asked him, suspicious.
"Well, she let it be known that she's bi, and she already has a girlfriend...and I think she could use some extra money. So, there wouldn't be any attachment, and she's a contract worker so she'll probably be long gone a year from now, meaning no awkward office situation, and if we pay her, all of our consciences can be clear - no attachment." Joe really was much smarter than people gave him credit for, I had to admit that.
"Um, okay, like I said, honey, I'll think about it."
With me, 'thinking about it' usually means checking with my best friend since grade school, Penny Alexander. She's beautiful and smart and clever, and usually right about things. I called her the next day to meet for lunch.
"Hi Penny, how's Ted?" I asked, when she answered the phone.
"Oh, fine." And Joe, how's he?" she responded.
