Las chicas del planeta 5

"The Girls from Planet 5" by Richard Wilson This Spanish translation of Richard Wilson's 1955 science-fiction story depicts a future matriarchal America. Newspaper reporter Dave Hull grows resentful when his girlfriend Emily Wallace is promoted to local news editor above him in Silver Spring, Maryland—a society where women have held power since 1998. After Emily rejects his proposal to escape to Texas, Dave quits and relocates to Dallas, a masculine enclave that has rejected feminist governance. In Texas, Dave undergoes a frontier-style transformation at a specialized outfitter, trading his car for a horse and acquiring western gear and weapons training. The narrative establishes Texas as radically separate from the feminized eastern states, complete with its own currency marked at 10% premium value. References accumulate to a mysterious figure named "Sam Buckskin," renowned for exceptional marksmanship and rope skills. The story concludes with Dave writing to Emily as a foreign correspondent, describing his experiences in this alternative America.
