be communicated through a small implant surgically inserted in all men’s brains during their adulthood ritual at age ten. The man will then leave the dome through the same tube used by the other men.
The newborns, you and your sibling, will be dizygotic twins. Nine months prior to the birth, a woman will insert her hard wet penis through the gates of another woman’s swollen labia, the one who will become the mother. The woman with the male genitals will ejaculate in the other woman’s vagina, and hundreds of millions of spermatozoa will explode into her uterus. Each of these spermatozoa will be composed of twenty-three chromosomes, of which at least twenty-two will be nonsex chromosomes, autosomes. The identity of the twenty-third chromosome will be split more or less evenly between three possibilities: a Y chromosome, an X chromosome, or a twenty-third autosome. All three types of spermatozoa will have the capacity to fertilize an ovum.
Approximately one day before the impregnation, two of the woman’s follicles will develop to maturity, each releasing its egg into her fallopian tubes. These ova will each contain twenty-three chromosomes: one X chromosome and twenty-two autosomes. A distinct spermatozoon will fertilize each one of these eggs. You and your sibling will be the living evidence of the dual impregnation’s success.
The various combinations of chromosomes will have three possible results. The successful impregnation of an ovum by a spermatozoon carrying the X chromosome will create a zygote that will mature into a woman with female genitals. The successful impregnation of an ovum by a spermatozoon carrying the Y chromosome will create a zygote that will mature into a woman with male genitals. The successful impregnation of an ovum by a spermatozoon composed of twenty-three autosomes, twenty-three nonsex chromosomes, will create a zygote that will mature into a man: a human with no genitalia.
The men attending the birth of the twins will judge that you will have matured from a zygote composed of twenty-two pairs of autosomes and one X-autosome pair. Your sibling’s penis will be evidence of her gender, of the absence of a second autosome in the twenty-third chromosomal pair.
Men will have no genitals. They will not breed. The women will breed. That will be the purpose of women’s existence: to breed more men, and to breed more women who will breed more men.
Men will have no body hair, no hair whatsoever. Women will have hair all over their bodies: on their legs and arms, on the top of their heads, and thick bushes in their armpits and groins. Some of them will have hair on their faces, on their chests, and on their backs.
Men will be able to move freely between domes. They will perform a variety of tasks. These tasks would seem meaningless to the women, if the women were ever allowed to witness them being performed. The women will be kept in a large dome – the enclosure – away from any tools or equipment. The women will breed. They will not be required, expected, or permitted to perform any other task.
The first ten years of men’s lives will constitute their childhood.
Like all men children, as an infant you will be entirely covered by a gelatinous membrane. The membrane will feed you. The membrane will extract your bodily waste and recycle it into the dome’s ecosystem. Viscous coils will protrude from the membrane and lodge themselves in your body, through the anus, through the ears, through the nostrils, through the mouth. The membrane will keep you in a perpetual dream state, stimulating your body through the necessary stages of physical development. The membrane will feed you dreams that will condition you to accept the mores of the dome society, and it will feed you dreams that will be indistinguishable from the reality of dome life.
You will turn ten years old. The membrane will retract its coils from your body. The membrane will grow brittle, and you will be released from its
