The Most Fascinating Man in the...

John Harpoon

Peter Freuchen was born on February 2, 1886, in the small town of Nykøbing Falster, Denmark. Raised in a well-off family, his early life was marked by an environment that fostered curiosity and exploration. From a young age, Freuchen exhibited a strong interest in adventure and the natural world. He was inspired by his father, a civil engineer, and his mother, who instilled in him a love for literature and storytelling. These early experiences would play a crucial role in shaping his adventurous spirit and intellectual curiosity, which would define much of his later life.
Freuchen's education was broad and varied. Initially attending school in his hometown, he soon showed an aptitude for science and geography. However, his desire to explore the world beyond the classroom eventually led him to study at the University of Copenhagen, where he focused on medicine and natural sciences. Although Freuchen did not complete his medical degree, his time at the university was pivotal in forming his understanding of the natural world and fostering his interest in Arctic exploration.
During his student years, Freuchen was drawn to the literature of explorers such as Fridtjof Nansen and Roald Amundsen. These accounts of Arctic adventures ignited a deep passion in him to experience such feats firsthand. While still a young man, he decided to leave behind his academic pursuits and embark on an adventure that would change his life forever. At the age of 22, Freuchen sailed to Greenland, where he would spend the next several years of his life living among the Inuit people. It was here that Freuchen learned the skills necessary to survive in one of the harshest environments on Earth. His time in Greenland was not just a physical trial but also an intellectual journey, as he immersed himself in the culture, language, and survival techniques of the Inuit.

Swapped by Science - Gender Swap

Kinky Press

What would you do if you wanted nothing to do with what was dangling between your legs? How far would you go? How much humiliation would you suffer? 
  
All I wanted was to become a woman. They promised help, that they could change me. The interviewer had me perform humiliating tasks for the first piece of the puzzle, I finally sounded like a woman when I spoke! That was step one. I never expected there to be so many steps, never thought they had the ability to change me so gradually, so shamefully. I had told myself that no challenge would be too harsh, but how was I supposed to know just how far they would make me fall? 
  
PSA: This story contains a man eager to become a woman and take it all. And he will. Take it all, that is. On his knees, on her back, bent over – it will be given freely.
