Transvestia

the Negro race? Think about it! Would any of you like to try? Crazy though it may seem I did try once to create a colored Susanna. I used Stein's dark brown make-up and was carefully to do a complete job all over; ears; arms; legs, etc. with the lighter shade in the palms and the edge of the feet. cotton I gave my lips the proper enlargement and I was fascinated by the result. It was evening and I tried a quick outing around the block-scared-but no trouble. The thrill of expressing the girl-within did not diminish one bit. On the contrary it was somehow enhanced.

Many of these TVs (white) would not particular- ly care to attend a mixed event such as that if they were to appear as their male selves. But in femme- dress such feelings seem to recede and disappear. This seems to be the case with the homosexual queens who fraternize unhesitatingly with their colored sis-
