Susanna and I and some others have been voices in the wilderness for a long time trying to get a- cross the conception of the "Girl Within". Most out- siders and a great many within our own group do not understand this conception--more than that they con- pletely misunderstand it. So it is with some sat- isfaction that every now and again others who are quite unaware of our interests and our point of view in the field come to essentially the same conclusions without any TV implications at all.

Recently I have received two items of this sort which are interesting enough to reprint for you so that you too can take some comfort in the realiza- tion that others are coming to understand what some of we femmiphiles have known for a long time. The first of these was sent over as a translation from the Danish by our sister Erna FD-J-1FPE who was our attractive Cover Girl back on TVia #35. It is part of an article by a Mr. Kresten Bjerg, a psychologist at the University of Copenhagen. He wrote an article in a Danish scientific journal entitled, "MASKS, PEOPLE AND SOCIETY". Part of this had application to us and Erna's translation is given here.

The second article is by June Wilson and appear- ed in the Atlanta Journal. Although this piece is essentially about the "BOY WITHIN" it is important because it indicates a recognition that there exists in all of us, male and female alike, the nucleus of a personality of the opposite gender. Articles in- dicating that "He" exists in her are naturally in- direct indications that likewise a "She" exists in him. I hope you enjoy both articles.
