Normal is a frequently used word, yet a word whose exact meaning is as elusive as the term perverse. What those two words imply seems to vary from nation to nation, from community to community, from person to person.
Among one African tribe it is considered obscene to expose one’s back to others. In many Eskimo communities it is the height of hospitality for a man to offer his wife to a guest.
Dora Winters outwardly appears to be an average American woman, yet behind the scenes she behaves in ways many would consider abnormal and perverse.
R#PED GOVERNESS—a novel of major interest to any who hope to find and define their own standards of correct behavior. The story of one woman seeking to resolve her moral conflicts and find inner happiness.
Miss Dora Winters, a slender red-haired spinster of thirty-eight, frowned at her new employer, Mrs. Taylor.
“Boys?” Miss Winters snapped. “All boys? You didn’t tell me that when I applied for this job as governess.”
“It must have slipped my mind,” Mrs. Taylor replied. “We have three teenage boys, yes. I hope that doesn’t make any difference to you, Miss Winters.”
“I’m afraid it does,” Dora said coldly. “I prefer not to work with boys.”
Mrs. Taylor looked worried. “Oh, dear,” she said, “I hope you won’t back out now. My husband and I planned to leave for Europe tomorrow morning. We need you.”
Dora sighed. “I signed up for a six-week trial, and I’ll stick to my word,” she said. “But meanwhile you’d better be looking for another governess, since I intend to leave as soon as the six weeks are up.”
“Of course,” Mrs. Taylor smiled, “I’ll start looking as soon as we get back from Europe. And now perhaps you’d like to meet my boys.”
Dora Winters didn’t like it at all. She feared and disliked all men, even young boys. Men, she believed, were brutish animals with only one thing on their minds—sex. And sex was such a filthy and embarrassing topic that Dora couldn’t bear to discuss it. But she was stuck with this job, and she’d just have to do her best till she could get out of it.
