private quarters and outfit the "Girl" in a suitable wardrobe. (Remember shoe rationing girls?) My Femme-Dressing contin- ued fairly constant with brief periods of discontinuance while I struggled against my natural (feminine) inclinations.

In '47 I gave up forever any further attempts to rid myself of my other personality and began learning to live with myself (and her). This decision finally led me to the path of true understand- ing, peace of mind and a 'balance', so necessary in all person- alities, male or female. My masculine nature benefited immeas- urably from my decision. I found that I was able to soften my attitudes toward people as a male, and gradually began to feel less inhibited about exposing the "Girl".

Needless to say, I have delved deeply into studies of unusual human behavior, --searching through texts and journals in public and hospital reference libraries. The general knowledge accum- ulated relative to psychology and psychiatry has been helpful, but as we all know, medical science has not been able to cope adequat- ely with problems of great magnitude, well defined, much less the dilemma faced by such a minority as we.

I am now able to look back only, --at all really serious prob- lems associated with my dual nature, having made all important adjustments years ago. I feel great happiness in living two lives, though I much prefer the "Girl" and cater to her whims and de- sires as much as mundane responsibilities will allow.

My unsolved problems are few, --probably the most important is the desire for marriage, --I continue to feel confident that some day I will meet that 'certain someone', and find the happy lasting union I long for.

As has been said before, we F. P.'s have much more to offer a woman (R. G. ) than any "average" man.

Through the years I have studied the female mode of living
