a big responsibility on our shoulders (even if we wear a strapless evening gown.) We are all timid at first in our search for sister souls. When we finally meet them, we feel happy, relaxed, contented, and some- times we gain enough courage and self-assurance to wish to meet non- TV's. This is the biggest responsi- bility of all. Other TV's will be tolerant of our weaknesses as human beings. They can easily under- stand and see our awkwardness. They know what loneliness and frustration can do to the human spirit and they will be super--tolerant of our mistakes.

But, non- TV's are not in the same category. We have to baby" them into accepting us and underst- anding what we have gone through. We want to show them the feminine side of our personality and convince them that this side is real, is true, is a sincere form of expression. Any action, gesture or step we take, away from the picture we want them to see, is going to make our task that much more difficult.

If we love femininity the way we say we do, then for heaven's sake let that femininity come through in its best light and not as something that we are ashamed of, as something that is hateful and undesirable.

This, to me, is to commit social suicide.....and exile all TV's back to their locked rooms.

Love,

Susanna

Ole King Cole was a merry old soul; We wondered what kept him so keen. Then, 'neath his robe we saw traces Of satin and laces.

For the king loved to dress as the Queen!

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe. I'd call that a fetish and I think you would, too.
