Inspired by personal experience.
Until yesterday, my life was no different than anybody's. Go to work, pay the bills, sleep. Today, I woke up to a world without humans. The streets are empty, the power grid is running down, and not another soul is in sight. That might not be the worst thing, if I wasn't also a pony.
Where is everyone? Why is this happening to me?

Prince Blueblood's 21st is approaching, and with it, his ascension to the throne. The only problem; he's a stallion. All of Equestria's leaders have been female. As have all their children, but for some reason Blueblood was born a male. Celestia thought she could overlook this by finding and teaching a suitable pupil, but Twilight Sparkle has created her own Empire in Ponyville and has no interest in moving back to Canterlot. So the sisters are left with one option if they ever want to retire; turn Blueblood into a mare.
Oh he may protest and hate the idea at first, but he doesn't have a choice, now does he, if she's to rule Equestria.

This is a "work on it when I feel like it" story, so there isn't regular updates.
In a matriarchal society such as Equestria, sometimes the social position of a stallion can be difficult.
Big Macintosh has things going fairly well for himself. He does his share of the work at Sweet Apple Acres and helps to support his family along with his sister.
But Granny Smith has been talking lately. She thinks an eligible stallion such as himself should find a well-to-do mare and get married before he's too old. And now she's gotten an idea: why doesn't Applejack introduce him to her friends?
Lyra Heartstrings, transformation specialist and social worker for those who believe they were not born ponies. These are her therapy sessions, both in group and in private.
With a little gentle guidance, these lost souls can rediscover the joys of being a pony, and let go of their foolish ideas. What sorts of trauma would drive anypony to throw away their identity?
