Victims Of The Great Shift #5

Powell (25)

I was in the middle of a shift at the nearby TexMex restaurant when The Great Shift happened, and well, as you can see, I'm still working there.

The big difference is that instead of wearing blue jeans and a flannel shirt, I now wear tight shorts and a denim vest. That's company policy, but I'm not gonna lie, it has been quite annoying since now a lot of the (male) customers can't help themselves from gazing at me.

So why the hell am I still working here?

Simple: I now get way more tips than ever before.

Wait, are you asking me on a date?

I mean... I appreciate the interest, but I'm afraid I'll have to pass.

You see, I actually used to be kind of a jock. I was the top basketball player at my college team, I went to the gym every day, and I was incredibly lucky with the ladies.

But after The Great Shift... I ended up with this body.

So as you might imagine, I'm still in the middle of coming to terms with being a woman. But hey, we can still be friends.

Being a woman has been pretty ok.

Like, yeah, I'm not a guy anymore, but unlike many of those Great Shift stories that you hear on the Internet or on TV, life has been pretty normal.

I still go to work, I still hang out with my friends, and I still buy groceries at the supermarket, which is what I already did before I swapped bodies with my neighbor.

I guess I'll never be able to understand why some people affected by The Great Shift change so much after they find themselves in someone else's body.

I though that swapping bodies with a family member or with a close friend was the most awkward and annoying situation that The Great Shift could put you into.

Unfortunately for me, it turns out that swapping with one of the grad students that you advise is by far the most awkward and annoying situation.

Not only am I in a body that's not my own, but I've had to submit so many documents to the administration that I'm seriously considering just leaving my job at the university all together.

Takes a deep breath.

I know what you're about to say:

Why is an old man like myself enjoying a relaxing hot tub session inside the body of one of his granddaughter's friends while wearing a bikini?

Well, I didn't want this to happen. I would have been more than fine remaining in my former body instead, but unfortunately, that's not what The Great Shift had in plan for me.

So can you please stop judging me and allow me relax in my hot tub?

Denver (31)

My wife and I are artists who have always been interested on how the male and female body are observed by people. That being said, we were having some difficulties coming up with any interesting ideas.

So imagine just how inspiring it was for the two of us to end up in each other's bodies thanks to The Great Shift.

Our newest project is on how male and female bodies are seen by those affected by The Great Shift, where my wife now plays the role of the man, while I play the role of the woman.

Juan (26)

If you'd have swapped bodies with someone living in another country, you would have tried to find your way back home as soon as possible, right?

Wrong!

I was born in Argentina, but when The Great Shift swapped me with a woman in her mid-thirties living in Australia, I decided to see if I liked it there. And well, after a few months in which I embraced my new body and made some good friends, I decided to stay.

Now, Volá de acá! I want to enjoy my boyfriend here at the beach.
