Transvestia

lingerie, I do as any girl would, chose for color and comfort. My dress size is either a 16 or 18 depending on the price of the garment. I wear a size 40 bra, padding included, a 40 slip, size 7 panties, a 30 girdle or garter belt or a 40 corselette.

My nylons are size eleven and shoes either 8C or 81⁄2B. I prefer my lingerie in black or white, lavish with lace. I wear either tailored skirts with long sleeved blouses or softly feminine dresses, flaring at the hips and with low necklines. My most complete wardrobe which, I think, any girl would envy, includes fifteen pairs of shoes.

My cosmetic drawer is complete in every detail, including lipsticks, powders, perfumes and nail polishes which will go with each of my hair colors. I have developed a keen sense of style and color combinations and I pay as much attention to these things as any woman would, perhaps, even more.

For years I have delved and probed into anything I could find that would shed further light on the subject of Transvestism. I would like to offer here my own interpretation of just what Transvestism is and what Transvestites are. Although I may not have the medical and scientific knowledge to give a crit- ical analysis of such a complex subject, I do have something that the medical men do not possess, that is, an intimate knowledge of the satisfaction that comes from wearing women's clothing.. something that only a Transvestite can understand fully. I am not ashamed of being as I am, rather I am proud of it!

I would like to point out here that there is a decided difference in 'we men who wear dresses'. I feel that there are at least four classifications into which we 'femme-males' (my own term a contra- ction for female men) should be placed. Each is essentially different and deserves analysis and dis- cussion. I have seen or known subjects in each of the categories.
