Humans of the Great Shift 2


Ayomi (22)


When I came here from Nigeria, The last thing my parents said to me before I got on the plane was to not let America change who i was. (Laughs) Somehow, I do not think this was what they were imagining!


I came here to study to be a doctor. I had only been on campus for a few days before the Great Shift hit, taking me out of my Anatomy lab and placing me into the body of a woman at a Sorority event nearby. Suffice to say, I ended up studying a very different kind of anatomy that night!


Thankfully, the girls at Kappa Delta have helped me adjust to my new body and all of the upkeep it takes. I even attend some of their on-campus events now when I’m not studying, but it’s still a shock to people over here when the white girl starts speaking with a thick Nigerian accent!

It’s funny, I had been trying to break into social media for years with no luck. Now I get more views on my videos in an hour than I did my in a year pre-shift. I guess it’s all down to timing - I started documenting my life adjusting to being swapped into a college aged girl and a couple of my videos started blowing up when that whole “Post-Shift day in my life” trend got big on TikTok. It turns out a lot more people are interested in what I get up to when there’s a hot 22 year old in front of the camera! Now i’ve shifted mostly into clothing hauls and dating tips for guys shifted into girls like me, but still, I’m lucky enough to be able to quit my job and do this full time thanks to a couple brand sponsorships!

You see that weight i just squatted? That’s a new PR for me! It’s funny, I first hit that milestone a few weeks after my 15th birthday back when i played high school football. Now i’m just reaching it all over again ten years later in a different body! You should have seen me when i fist got back in the gym Post-Shift, the girl i swapped into could barely lift the bar without any weights! It didn’t help that i lost about a hundred pounds and a foot of height in the Shift, but now that i have at least some of my old muscle back i’m feeling a lot more like myself. Plus, between you and me, my ass has gotten so much bigger since i started focusing my leg day around it. If im gonna be a girl, i might as well fill out a dress, right?

I think dealing with my hair has been the biggest adjustment since the Shift put me into my black coworker’s body. It’s a little embarrassing to say, but as a guy the only thing i had in my shower was a bottle of 5-in-1 soap that i used as body wash, shampoo, and conditioner. Now i probably have at least a dozen products to take care of my new curls - Leave in conditioner, hair masks, stuff i didn’t even know existed before i learned the hard way just how necessary it is for my hair type. And don’t even get me started with the braiding - Luckily my coworkers got me hooked up with a black-owned hair salon that taught me how to do a couple protective styles, but i’ll just say, the days where i could just wash and go in a couple minutes if i was late for work are long gone!

I still can’t believe this is my life! Before the Shift, I just worked as some low-level accountant for one of the big firms. We were on location at one of our client’s Russian office when the Shift hit, and I ended up three floors down in the body of a model shooting for one of their ad campaigns! Seeing as i wasn’t a citizen, it was months before i got the right documentation to leave the country since the borders shut down after the shift. Luckily, the company managed to put me up in some corporate housing and find me some work to do in the meantime.


And well… One thing led to another and I met Alexei! Luckily he speaks a decent amount of English, but my Russian is getting better by the day. And besides, there’s a lot we can do to communicate without talking, if you catch my drift. Especially after he gets home from a long day of work, it’s not easy being that high up in the company!  I told my job i’d be back in the states weeks ago, but now that I’ve moved in with Alexei, i’m thinking about just quitting instead… It’s not like I need the money anymore now that he’s paying for all my shopping trips!

It wasn’t exactly easy explaining to my girlfriend how the Great Shift put me in her best friend Ashley’s body, especially since Ashley was supposed to be visiting her grandma out of state and i had told her i was on a business trip out of town for the weekend… 


To tell the truth, we were in a hotel together a few towns over when the Shift hit, and had been hooking up for weeks behind her back before that. Obviously my relationship was dead in the water after that, but between you and me, Ashley and I have kept meeting up since the Shift and our sex life is better than ever! Although i do still have to get used to seeing my own body in bed next to me the morning after…
