The story fragment is provocative and certainly makes me want to keep turning the page.

It would seem to be a fairly simple thing, not much different from learning to wash the genitals of a baby boy. After all, she did not have those parts, either, and had very little experience with them. But the tail was surprisingly sensitive and slippery, recoiling instinctively from water, the sponge. It was at bath time, in fact, that the oddness of the tail asserted itself. It was almost as if the tail wanted to separate from the boy, and not the other way around. “We used to remove them,” the doctor had told her when she was hired. “We assumed that if the tail was amputated early on, the child could be raised with no memory of it. That it was just a matter of nurture. The doctors who advocated gender re-assignment in the 20th century thought the same thing, so perhaps we should have known better.” “What happened?” The doctor paused as if judging her, deciding whether she could be trusted with certain information. But she had been subjected to a battery of tests before she was hired, tests that included brain wave scans as she was shown the most horrific images available, and she had been given the job. “They grew back and they were much more . . . problematic. They – they tried to strangle the children, in their sleep. It was as if the amputation convinced them that they were in an adversarial situation, that only one could survive. And it was a while before we understood what was happening. Some people said crib death at first. Then they thought it was a woman on the ward, trying to make it look like crib death. It was only after we installed the video monitors that we saw and – well, then we decided to try different approaches.” “Different approaches?” “It’s not important.” Bathing was the first challenge.
