About

Up for Grabs 2: the Third Gender is the working title of the sequel to Up for Grabs, which has received a lot of attention in reviews. While UFG had a focus on changing from one gender to another, I would like to see stories about people in between. Gender is not binary. These stories will explore modern and future expressions of third genders. Some ideas I would like to see examined are: Protagonists using mechanical, surgical, magical, or VR to express a gender other than the standard two. Coming of age stories Stories about protagonists who may not be young and gorgeous, but who have age and experience. Stories where third genders are normal, even common. * Descriptions of new ways to have sex beyond the traditional.
