Preface
Year 2098. The last Great War, biological as it was, had all but eradicated the male species by a deadly virus. What made the virus simultaneously a more potent danger was its ability to virtually obliterate and make defunct the y-chromosome in the male sperm so that the ability to produce male off springs were lost. Thus, on the one hand, the male population had alarmingly dwindled over the last few decades and become almost extinct; on the other hand, the mating process itself and birth of male off springs were impossible.
The situation had come to such a pass that currently there were just a handful of males, located in different continents of the world, each receiving full time attention and top most security, being housed in “LAIRS” as they called it. They were subject to the utmost care, as if they were considered invaluable property, allowed comforts and amenities usually reserved for a king, could obtain at mere asking whatever they wanted but, in the end, they were prevented from mingling freely with anyone and this meant the entire outside world which was now swamped with females and females alone. Thus, they were strictly barred from sexual intercourse and mating. Periodically, however, they were milked of their sperms, and this was then preserved, and kept under maximum security. More precious than gold, with the glaring certainty that their source would eventually be unavailable at one point of time with death, these Sperm Vaults were zealously guarded.
This breed of living males, termed Studs all over the world, numbered just a paltry thirty seven at the time of this reporting. They did not belong to any specific race or color and varied from place to place. All were around twenty five or so; they had wonderful physique and features; all kept in isolation as described above.
The women of the world, as can be obviously understood, over ran the basic fabric of human life and existence. They were the presidents or prime ministers who ruled countries, the corporate heads of business entities, the generals and chief of defence, the pilots who flew the planes, the police chiefs who prevented crime, the judges who punished, the professors and teachers who taught, the students who learnt, the doctors who treated, the scientists who discovered - indeed they, the female gender, made up the entire human population!
Almost the entire population, despite possessing a high level of intelligence, knowledge and even physical stamina, remained ignorant of the process of procreation. The sexual act was unknown and unheard of; the male organ, the phallus was only seen in library books - save and except for the privileged few among the rich and the powerful, that too in absolute secrecy. And, among those very privileged, a numbered few could actually get to hold and have the phallus for themselves for a short duration and in absolute privacy. To them, it was something unique and heavenly, something that gave sublime pleasure, something which was sourly missed by those who were born after the Great War.
These chronicles describe the happenings and lives of a few in that future period of time, those who lived and walked the earth. If there are a few distortions from the truth, the chronicler may be forgiven. But, to her knowledge and belief, she has tried to record the facts to the best of her ability. Truthfully and honestly, she witnessed these happenings, for in addition to being a chronicler, she was also thrust the duty of a Preventer whose function it was to secure and prevent access to these studs by anyone from the general population.
It is also her honest and secret submission that in the advantageous capacity of Preventer, she has had the privilege of experiencing some of that sublime pleasure, known in the earlier and bygone eras as sexual intercourse between a male and female. There was no doubt in her mind that it was something unique and extraordinary.
In my next post, I hope to introduce you to the characters, namely those who chose to violate the cardinal rule of womankind during that time, the rule which everyone knew even from puberty - abstinence.
