was one of profound shock; my second was one of re- lief that my husband had taken me into his confidence. After realizing that I was still very much in love, acceptance of the situation appeared to be the ans- wer and this I think is the crux of the matter. What my reaction would have been had I been told about Rosemary before getting married I cannot say, but looking back over the last five years I think this love has been strengthened. Neither of us is per- fect and this quirk I consider now as a hobby, though unlike some hobbies it requires a great deal of room and time.

Rosemary has definitely improved during the years and has become more mature and less gauche. She has a wardrobe that is almost as large as mine with the added advantage that she can increase or decrease her measurements at will!

One problem we have yet to solve is the effect Rosemary will have on the children. Whilst they are small the problem is small, but I feel that as they get older Rosemary will have to go into hibernation certainly until they can understand what it is all about. When the children reach their teens and are sorting out their own emotions the complication of Rosemary may retard or in some way affect their de- velopment, and this I should want to avoid at all costs. Apart from all this, I am content to let Rosemary be.

Another difficulty I have found is the lack of other GGs to discuss transvestism with. I have read books, but this is not the same as talking to some- one or even writing about it. To other GGs who may be worried about T.V. I would say don't- after all there are so many other vices a man can turn to! I feel that if being dressed en femme releases tension and gives pleasure then it cannot be a bad thing provided it is kept in prospective.
