A Very Martian Christmas
By Genta Sebastian
An Alien Affair to Remember
Patricia Talbot is a butch lesbian and her identical twin, Pamela, is a straight femme. Earthlings, both are currently unattached, and book the Martian Love Boat, the Navire L’Amour, for a Christmas singles cruise to Jupiter.
Martians Tanaquil and Atticus Marius are getting divorced. Tana’s lesbianism has left Atticus out of the bedroom in a sexless marriage for four years. They booked the cruise a year ago and agree to be adult about it one last time.
Pat falls for Tana, and Pam for Atticus. Everything seems marvelous and love is in the stateroom, until a disastrous allergic reaction, a switching of identities, and bigotry against Martians dating Earthlings cause a riotous, hilarious, Christmas celebration.
