Transvestia

I find so many people misunderstanding us girls. Why is that? So many think we are homosexual which is is far from the truth. We only want to be comfortably dressed and to be the woman we wished we were.

Well, this brings me right up to date. You may print this in TRANSVESTIA, and use my picture if possi- ble, I think TRANSVESTIA is wonderful, keep up the good work. I read "Fated For Feminity" in one evening

I certainly envy Linda.

Would love to correspond with some of the girls, but am afraid it cannot be done just at present. Maybe at some later date. I am so glad I am now one of them.

Best regards to all

Sincerely,

My Dear Virginia:

As I sit down to write this, I cannot help but wonder how much of your mail is composed in this way. I am away from home in a strange hotel room (locked, of course!) completely dressed and my only desire is to communicate with those who understand...so... this epistle (probably very lengthy).

All dressed up and no place to go! How often has it been said? How often will it be said again? I suppose this is the lonely lot of a TV. But, I do not complain! ere is much to talk about.

After many years of the "fumbling" type of TV, I bravely decided to do something about shoes in the proper size. This has always been a problem with me (as I sup- pose it is with others who operate without a woman's help). I have several of the open type, where size does not have to be too exact, but for a long time, my fem- ininine heart has been set on a pair of black leather pumps, undecorated. What to do?

What did I do? I would not dare to do in my home town for obvious reasons (I am somewhat known). But in a strange city... why not?
