Marty and Abe had been such good friends. The two gay men weren’t a couple, but many often mistook them for one. But when they both wound up in women’s bodies as a result of the Great Shift, their friendship started to be strained. Being a woman was everything that Marty had always dreamed of; he loved having sex with guys, feeling like he had a perfect for a guy to make love to now. Abe had been a mope though, and Marty kept egging him on to enjoy himself. Then one day Abe snapped.
“I was a MAN,” he angrily stated, “I liked being a MAN. I liked having sex with men AS A MAN. I liked being GAY. Maybe you enjoy being a woman, but all I feel like now is a man trapped inside a woman’s body, a gay man trapped inside a woman’s body. Short of another Great Shift, there’s no way to fix this. I’m glad you’re happy, but please stop expecting ME to happy as well.”
