Reflections of a Strong, Tough and Dominant Woman By M.C. A powerful woman describes how, through her strength and toughness, she helped her boyfriend discover what's really important in life. *Author's Note: I hope everyone who's cooped up in their homes (like me) are managing as well as can be expected in these trying times. And wherever you are in this world, that you and your loves ones are all well. This is definitely not how I was expecting to be spending my retirement but at least I now have free time (perhaps too much) to read and write out my fantasy stories for this site. Please stay safe and healthy. M.C. 1) Introduction Hello. My name is Penny Stevenson and I'm a world class female professional bodybuilder and wrestler. I'm both very strong and very tough. So much so in fact that even male pro wrestlers are afraid to grapple against me in the ring; least they be embarrassed at being defeated by a woman. Male pride and egos, is it any wonder why this world of ours is so screwed up? I've been dealing with male egos for practically my entire life. In fact, that's how I met my boyfriend. 2) Girl Meets Boy I was seventeen years old and had just moved into a new neighborhood, which means starting a new school. In the first week at my new school I saw a very large boy picking on a smaller one. "Leave him alone you big bully," I said as I approached him, "or you'll regret it." He must have been at least six feet tall and weighed well over 200 pounds (to my five feet-nine inches and 160 pounds) and appeared to be very well built. But as I said before, I'm very strong and tough; and was so even then. Years of intensive weight lifting and martial arts training had given me the strength and self-confidence to deal with just about any situation that I found myself confronted with - so facing down a high school bully didn't faze me all that much. The bully walked over to where I was standing and glared down at me. "And just how are you going to make me regret it, Girlie?" I looked up at him (as I said before, he was at least six feet tall but I later found out that he stood six foot three to my five nine) put my hands on my hips and said, "First of all tough guy, my name is Penny, not girlie - and you'd be wise to remember that from now on tough guy. And as to how I'm going to make you regret bullying that kid; well, like this." CRACK! With my open right hand I slapped him hard across his face. People have told that if done right, a good, hard slap across the face hurts just as much as a punch; if not more. And who told me this? Well, the boys that I slapped of course (smirk)." As I expected, my slap across the bully's face enraged him and he came at me with guns blazing; throwing wild punches with abandon. But just like most of the bullies that I've confronted over the years (by that time I'd lost count as to just how many bullies I'd beaten) his fighting ability left a lot to be desired. As with most of the big, strong boys that I've confronted, he simply depended on his superior size and strength to prevail. But against a girl like me with a lot of training and experience in hand-to-hand combat, his strategy made our fight if you could even call it that - seem more like a massacre. In short, he didn't stand a chance. At first I was content to merely fight on the defensive during his initial attack by either blocking or avoiding his errant blows. Then, after about a minute when I sensed that he appeared to be tiring, I began to counterattack by launching a series of sharp punches of my own which, unlike his, always found their mark. And the longer that our fight continued, the more of a mismatch it became. It couldn't have been more than four or five minutes that the bully and I were fighting that he was bleeding from both his nose and mouth; not to mention the many other welts and bruises that my punches must have given him over various other parts of his body which weren't visible. By now a rather large crowd of students had gathered around to watch our fight (the bully and I were fighting just outside the school's cafeteria during the lunch hour) and, much to my surprise, many of them were actually rooting for yours truly! "Wow!" I thought to myself, "what a great way to introduce myself to my new schoolmates - by beating up a tough bully." WHAM! I knocked him to the pavement with a solid right hook to his jaw. And while I waited for the large boy to get back on his feet, I decided to rub in the fact that he was being beaten by a girl. I reached into my back pocket, took out my hairbrush (I never went anywhere without my trusty hairbrush) and began to brush my long, pretty, dark brown hair (hey, where is it written that just because I'm a strong, tough girl that I can't also be feminine; right?). As I expected, brushing my hair while pummeling him only enraged the big bully more than he already was and he charged at me again. After all, there were now a lot of students watching and some were probably even his friends. How would it look to them if they saw him getting beaten up by a smaller girl? Oh how I just love to take advantage of a guy's macho ego. It makes it so easy for me to teach them a lesson. And this guy wasn't any different. Perhaps two minutes after he resumed his attack - POW! CRACK! SMACK! WHAM! - I put him back down on the pavement again with a strong series of lefts and rights to his face and mid-section (his large frame made him an easy target for me to land my punches). And as the bully struggled to get back on his feet again, I decided to use this opportunity to introduce myself to all of the students of my new school that were watching the fight. "Hello," I began in a sweet and pleasant voice, "my name is Penny Stevenson and I'm new here. In fact I just started school this week." WHACK! (I saw that the bully was about to get up so I knocked him down again with a solid right cross to his jaw). "And despite what you may be thinking of me as you watch me beating up this big bully - POW! (I knocked him down again), I'm actually a very nice girl once you get to know me. I just don't like bullies; that's all." CRACK! (And with one more strong right hook to his jaw I put him down for good). "And so I decided to teach him a lesson." As I stood over the bully that I had just battered into submission, many of the students that had been watching came up to me and thanked me for doing it. "He was the biggest bully in our whole school," one of them told me. "Yes," another said in agreement. "He's the roughest, toughest boy here and was always intimidating the other kids. I fact sometimes he would threaten us if we didn't hand over our lunch money to him." "Well his days of terrorizing you all are now officially over," I smiled at them. "Because there's a new sheriff I town now; me. And as you have all just seen, anybody who bullies other students in this school will, from now on, have to answer to me." SMACK! I slammed my right fist hard into my left palm to emphasize my point. "So you can all rest easy; because bullying in this school will soon become a thing of the past." Although there were several other bullies that I had to beat up afterwards, it didn't take me very long to reign in the bullying problem in my new school. Such are the advantages of being a strong, tough girl. 3) Penny gets a date for the Dance But unfortunately there was also a flip side to this coin too. Because I was such a strong and tough girl who could easily beat up even the toughest boys in my school, no boy wanted to date me - they were simply too intimidated to even ask. So as our school's New Year's Eve party was approaching, I found myself without a date for one of the biggest events of the year. So, what was a strong, tough girl like me to do in this situation? Answer: The only thing that I knew how to do (wink). "Knock! Knock!" I said as I banged on the front door of the house which was located only two blocks away from mine. "Who's that?" the voice from inside asked. I didn't answer but rang the doorbell. "YOU!" the large boy exclaimed after he opened the door and saw me standing in front of him; smiling. He tried to slam the door in my face but I pushed it open, made my way past him and entered his home. "What the hell are you doing here?" he bellowed. "Get out of my house this minute!" "My, my, such language Roy. It looks like I may have to teach you some more manners." If you haven't already guessed by now, Roy was the school bully that I had beaten up in school a month earlier. And for some reason he didn't seem too happy to see me (giggles). After our little encounter at school I had asked some of the other students about him and found out that his name was Roy, he was the star middle linebacker on our high school football team and that he lived only two blocks away from me. How convenient! I walked into the middle of the large living room and put my hands on my hips. "If you want me out big boy, then you'll have to throw me out yourself; because I'm not leaving until I finish what I came here to do." Because I didn't see any cars parked either in the driveway or the garage, I assumed that his mother was still at work (one of the students told me that Roy's parents are divorced and his father moved to another city). So I figured we'd be alone for a while if I came over straight from school. Despite the beating that I had given him a month ago, I guess the sight of me standing in the living room of his own home and challenging him to throw me out was too much for Roy to stomach; so he attacked me. But unfortunately for him, he fared no better this time than he did in the last. Although I didn't give him quite so comprehensive a beating this time as I had in our previous encounter (I was pulling my punches most of the time) after only about ten minutes of fighting Roy was beaten. Then he did something that was funny, but in a way also pathetic - he started to run away from me. "What's the matter tough guy?" I teased as I chased after him. "Is the rough, tough, macho football star afraid of a little girl? Tee, hee, hee." I have to admit that the scene was indeed quite funny - that me, a girl, was chasing this big, strong, tough guy all around his house and giggling as I did so. Roy did manage to get into his bedroom and lock the door before I could catch him (although truth be known, I probably could have caught him except that I was laughing so hard by this time that I really wasn't trying to). I mean we were inside his house; where else was he going to run? "Leave me alone Penny!" he cried from the inside of his bedroom. Haven't you humiliated me enough already? Just get out of my house and leave me the hell alone!" "Oh Roy, Roy, Roy. It's like I told you earlier. I came here to do something and I'm not leaving until I do what I came here for. Now, either you open up your bedroom door and let me in this minute; OR ELSE!" "Or else what? What are you going to do Penny?" "This." CRASH! And with one thrust from my board-breaking right fist (did I mention before that I hold a black belt in karate?) I smashed a hole through the solid wooden door of Roy's bedroom, reached inside and unlocked it, and then entered. "See what you made me do Roy? Because of your silly stubbornness, I had to break your nice door. Naughty boy." He was backed against the corner on the far side of the room now and I could clearly see that he was shaking. "It looks like you've run out of room to run now big boy. So what are you going to do now?" I have to admit that the sight of this large, strong macho guy trapped in the corner of his bedroom, shaking like a leaf on a tree on a windy day all because of a little ole me sent an erotic feeling flowing through my body - a VERY erotic feeling. "What - what do you want from me Penny? Haven't you done enough to me already? First you beat me up and humiliated me in front of the whole school last month. And now you barge into my own home and do it again. What do you want?" I walked over to his bed and sat down. "Come over here and sit down beside me Roy. I have something important that I want to discuss with you." When he remained in the corner I said - much more forcefully this time - "I said get your ass over here this second Roy! Don't make have to get up and get you! My patience isn't unlimited you know!" Still he remained where he was. "Very well then big boy. I tried to be nice and reason with you; but I see that you've left me no other choice." I got up from his bed and stormed over to the corner (I had a rather bad temper when I was younger which wasn't always a good thing - for the people that I was pissed off at that is). Then I grabbed him firmly by the collar of the sweatshirt he was wearing and dragged him over to his chest of drawers, opened it and took out a pair if his underwear. Then marched him over to his bed and forced him to lie down on his stomach. By now he was far too intimidated my me to offer any resistance. "Since you insist on being very difficult Roy, I'm going to have to tie you up and force you to listen to what I have to say." I tied his arms together by the wrists behind his back with his underwear (snuggly, but not too tightly) and then sat him up on his bed. "And to make sure that you don't interrupt me with your whining and complaining, I'm going to do this." I removed my shoes, pulled down my panties, rolled then up into a tight ball and stuffed them into his mouth. "There," I said as I admired my handiwork. And now." Just then Roy's cell phone began to ring. Since Roy was obviously unable to answer it, I did. "Hello. Who is this? Oh, you're Roy's mother. Me? My name is Penny, your son's newest friend. Roy? I'm afraid he's unable to come to the phone now. He's a bit, well I supposed you could say 'tied up' at the moment (I had to fight hard not to giggle when I said that). Can I take a message for him? Yes. All right. I'll tell him. It was nice talking to you too. Oh, and by-the-way, don't worry about the hole in Roy's bedroom door. We had a slight accident (smirk)." I close the phone and grinned at Roy. "That was your mommy; and guess what? She's going to do some shopping after she finishes work today and will only return here around six. That means we have three full hours now to get to know each other better. And what did you think of my pun - saying that you were a bit tied up? Wasn't that clever? Tee, hee, hee." I sat down next to the tied up and gagged Roy. "Oh you poor thing you," I cooed. "First you were beaten up by a girl again, and then she tied you up and stuffed her panties in your mouth. And there was absolutely nothing you could do about it, was there? Gee Roy, it must be a real blow to that macho ego of yours to be so easily dominated by a girl." Least you think that I was being unnecessarily cruel to him now, this was all part of my plan - to break down his macho ego so he'll be more agreeable to what I was about to say to him. "But at least now I can tell you what I came over here to say without you interfering with me. So here goes: "First of all, whether you want to or not, and I suspect that you don't want to, you're going to take me to the New Year's Eve dance. And then you're going to be my boyfriend. I think that you and I will be just great for each other. You need a strong, tough girl like me to keep you in line; and I need a good-looking hunk like you for a boyfriend." That wasn't flattery on my part. I really thought he was a cutie pie. "Furthermore, since you're going to be my boyfriend Roy, this is what I expect from you. First: since my home is right on your way to school, from tomorrow on, you're going come to my house every morning at eight A.M. sharp - and I wouldn't be late if I were you. You're going to come into my bedroom, brush my pretty hair and then we'll walk to school together. Second: after our last class we're going to work out in the weight room together. You're our football team's star linebacker and, to be honest, I'm very disappointed in the strength and stamina you displayed in our fights. You were way too easy for me to beat up. I'm definitely going to have to toughen you up if you have any dreams of being offered a football scholarship to a university." "Third: After our workout we'll walk back to my home and do our homework together. I understand that you're a rather lazy student, but that's all going to change. I certainly don't want a dumb boyfriend. And Fourth: We'll be going out on dates every Friday or Saturday night for a nice dinner and a movie. And we'll even split the costs so that the burden doesn't all fall entirely on you. That's how it's going to be from now on Roy. So the sooner that you get used to it, the better things will be for both of us." After a few moments of silence to let what I had just said to Roy to sink in, I removed the panties that I had stuffed into his mouth and untied his arms. Then he began to cry. I put my strong right arm around his shoulder and gently tugged him towards me and placed his head on my shoulder. "There, there sweetie pie," I said softly, "everything will be all right. Just trust in Penny and I promise you that everything all turn out for the best." 4) Three Years Later Well, a lot has happened since the last chapter. Let me fill you in. Although it took him a little while, Roy eventually came around to appreciating the value in having a strong, tough girlfriend. For I whipped him into the best shape of his life; metaphorically speaking that is. I mean although I may be a strong, tough and dominant female, even I'm not THAT weird). But here's the thing - as a result of my strict discipline, Roy was not only selected as 'State High School Linebacker of the Year', but he also received a full-paid football scholarship to one of the best universities in the country. Who knows where this might lead? Maybe there's even an N.F.L. contract lurking somewhere in Roy's future. And although I hate to brag (well, maybe I do like to brag a little from time to time) he owes it all to little ole me and my strong, firm - but always loving - hand. And as for me, I'm studying ancient history at the university which is a passion that I've had ever since I was in grade school. I also began to do two other things that I've had a strong passion for, and it's something that I could put both my strength and toughness to good use - I became a champion bodybuilder as well as a professional wrestler. Roy and I live together in an apartment located a short distance from the university campus and our relationship has never been better. Although every once in a while when I feel that Roy is getting a little bit too full of himself and needs to be brought down a few pegs, I do it. Nothing too rough mind you - after all, he is my honey bunny. Usually just a light beating followed by a spanking on his cute tushie from my firm hand with him draped across my knees is sufficient to remind my football playing boyfriend who's really in charge around here. Such are the advantages of being a strong, tough woman (wink).
