What a creative idea. Too bad life does not imitate art
There will be at least a little bit of that, although I don't want to go too far down that rabbit hole, in part because I fear that element of the world building might prove too niche for some, and also because I can only go so far before the obvious fact that mandatory nudity isn't really compatible with traditional Christian teachings about sex and modesty can no longer be ignored.EddieDavidson wrote: Wed Sep 09, 2026 6:50 pmI am morbidly curious if this will have a payoff in terms of laying out some of the teachings that reinforce their maledom interpreation, which classic Christianity certainly has enough interesting bible verses that support that.
I'll note that while there have arguably have been some hints of male headship in the Sanders family dynamics, we haven't seen anything explicit so far. We've seen Irena defer to her husband's judgment, and fulfill a more traditional "housewife" role by doing the cooking, but not really submit per se or be disciplined by him. That probably won't change. While the twins are under the authority of their parents as minors and Hannah was coerced into it to avoid homelessness, Irena made a free choice to become a gymnogynist prior to her marriage. I'd say their relationship falls short of what I'd consider an egalitarian ideal but isn't really an example of male dominance either.
Breakfast was glossed over because I couldn't think of anything interesting to say about it. They sit down for breakfast and then after that they are done eating. I did try to think of some breakfast table conversation but I couldn't come up with anything that either meaningfully moved the story forward or satisfied the reader's more fetishistic desires.EddieDavidson wrote: Wed Sep 09, 2026 6:50 pmI like the day in the life approach as well. It's cool because it's sort of flowing, although breakfast was skipped, or did I miss it? the women outside washing their asses when boys are going hungry?
The day in the life approach seems to me somewhat necessary at this point since this is our only chance to see Hannah to do these things for the very first time. Once she falls into a routine we'll probably move through subsequent days/weeks much faster.
Wearing an apron for protection would be consistent with gymnogynist ideals but for French toast and sausage I don't see why Irena would bother. If she were frying bacon or something else more prone to splatter maybe it would be different. Possibly some sort of sheer lace apron? She is committed to gymnogynist ideals and so certainly wouldn't try to cover herself more than necessary to protect herself.EddieDavidson wrote: Wed Sep 09, 2026 6:50 pmpancakes and flapjacks need flipping and I'd be curious as well if aprons are worn during frying.
She noticed the lack of a shower the night before and discussed it with the twins then.EddieDavidson wrote: Wed Sep 09, 2026 6:50 pmIn particular, noticing there was no shower, so we could find out if she knew she was to shower outside/figured that out from the lack of toothpaste, toilet paper , towels, or shower,.
My first thought on reading this is that a dildo would be too overtly sexual, but . . . well, you'll see, possibly in my next chapter.EddieDavidson wrote: Wed Sep 09, 2026 6:50 pmThe other part would have just been a little visual on the bedroom and bathroom. The bed is good, but is it spartan with minimal items, are there handcuffs and duct tape lyign around for use on them, dildos to freely use.
I'm thinking there's probably a large mirror in the living room (which of course doubles as their bedroom). That's something I went back and forth on though so if I didn't mention it it was probably to avoid committing myself to a decision I might regret later.EddieDavidson wrote: Wed Sep 09, 2026 6:50 pmIs the bathroom spotless, is it cramped, tooth paste and toiletries, they applied makeup and nail polish all at once, so huddling in ass to ass to a 5x5 bathroom to look at themselves in a small mirror knowing if the makeup is off, men will be disappointed in them.
A lot of it just comes down to I supplied as many details as I could think of and I will supply more if I can think of them and there is a natural place to mention them.
