my earliest school days about "gawking at the girls." That ocular enchantment is undiminished to this day.

This attitude then, the precondition toward femininity which I recognize but cannot explain, I hold has its origins in the endocrine structure of my body. I take it to be, there- fore, genetic and congenital. However, traumatic my experience, I maintain that there was a biochemical precondition to which the experience only lent psychological patent.

Transvestites are born, not made!

SPLIT PERSONALITY

Smoothing the eyebrows to make them just so Brushing my hair till it's shining and bright. A little more make-up to make the lips glow- (The railroad is shifting the boxcars tonight).

Garter-belt snug and stocking seams tidy, When they are twisted I feel like a fright! Where IS that new bra I picked up last Friday? II hope those new presses will work out all right).

Pretty red shoes and the long velvet skirt Put on the blue blouse--no, make it the tan. Try those long earrings, the other ones hurt (e must fill those orders as quick as we can).

Little white hat with a little white veil- It must have been nice when girls carried a fan! No time left to fuss with that torn fingernail (For tomorrow doggone it--I must be a Man!)
