About this listen

In the twenty-second century, when the world has been ravaged by chronic pandemics, a combination of vaccines and evolution creates a world populated with hermaphrodites. And these hermaphrodites have a natural immunity against deadly viruses. With death rates outpacing births, hermaphrodites will save humanity from extinction.

There is no distinction between men and women. It is a world of a single sexuality and a single gender. But what if your body tells you something different? What if there is still a spectrum of feelings that you experience where you might have tendencies that lean toward the male or toward the female? The government forbids the removal of any sex organs due to the dictum which states, “If God wants us to be hermaphrodites, we should not tamper with His plan.”

We meet a mixed family, the Winwards, living in the community of Thar who experience the trials and tribulations of life and love. They live in a futuristic world filled with trips to the moon and read-chips that are placed in your eye like contact lenses. Some of these family members are single-gendered, some are hermaphrodite, some are satisfied with their bodies, some are not, and they all struggle to make mixed relationships work.
