Karyn said, "JJ, I'm sorry, but no matter what, you can't ever be testosterone-driven and you can't get rid of your breasts. Both of those are the result of wishes and therefore can't be changed. So what kind of boy, let alone, man, could you possibly become? But you don't have to remain a submissive cross-dresser, either. What were your true goals and your true self image -- those you had before all this started?"
"Well, I sure never wanted my life as it is now," JJ whimpered. "But then all these things happened. Some were the effect of my stone, and some just seemed logical at the time, and I never really fought back at all. So maybe this is what I wanted all along, secretly or subconsciously or whatever."
"I thought you wanted to do well at school, and go to college, and become an architect or a lawyer or something like that," Karyn reminded him.
"Yeah, I did, and I always hoped for a sport I was good at, too," JJ recalled. "Now, though, I'm just this weak girl..."
"Women, you know, can do all those things you wanted," Karyn reminded JJ. "Were there any women you really admired, or even envied before all this started?"
"Well yeah, I read an article about this woman who started her own company and earned fifty million dollars before she turned thirty. She was good looking, too. It just didn't seem fair for her to be so successful and have so much. I remember another woman under thirty who became an international symphony and ballet manager. There was a story about her on the news. A woman found the cure for AIDS. That was pretty cool. I always liked that tall blonde Russian tennis player, and that sexy pitcher on the Olympic woman's softball team, and that tall Hawaiian golfer chick. There've been a couple of volleyball players, too..."
"You could model yourself after any of those women, JJ, or any combination. All you have to do is make a wish," Karyn encouraged him.
"Yeah, but they all earned it themselves. Just making a wish -- how admirable is that?"
"So wish for the ability and the opportunity," Karyn suggested. "Give yourself a chance to succeed, but a chance to fail as well. Then work at it."
JJ though about Karyn's suggestions for a long time, and then made up his mind.
"OK, Karyn," he asked. "What do you think of this? "
