styles easily. I have practiced extensively with makeup and have tended towards a more subdued and natural look for several years. I am able to use less foundation as my beard thins gradually (through electrolysis), so I am able to achieve a good result with base, powder, lipstick and only a little eyeshadow. My dark lashes require no mascara (unless I go dramatic). Naturally, I continually seek to improve and perfect all aspects of the "Girl".

To portray the inner being is difficult for the average person or "Norm". To describe two people is somewhat of a challenge, so I will stress simplicity. My male nature is quiet and reserved, mild-natured and of even-temperament. The "Girl" is cheerful and fun-loving, though not overly demonstrative. "She" is a "Lady" at all times. Both are thoroughly domesticated and love home-making, artistic pursuits and social activities.

My Femme-Personality is devoid of any inverse sexual man- ifestations, and my male nature has been as normal as blueberry pie in physical act and desire.

My open public disclosures are decidedly male and incur no indication of the existance of another "self". My private life centers about the female personality within me that is the more natural existance. To experience the transference into the fem- inine world is exhilarating and inspiring beyond words.

I become a whole being and live life to its fullest, which contrasts to my otherwise average existance.

To those who are younger and beset with inner turmoil due to a struggle of natures within themselves, I say this:

No one knows better than I the price of such a conflict--I could not win, until I lost. And in the end, I am the Victor. I live in peace and happiness and beauty, --at least part of my life.
