Transvestia
Of course exposure was to come later. My first scare came sometime prior to going to work. There was an old maid school teacher whom I often visited. I wrote her a note requesting her to let me put on her corset. She got very mad and said she was going to tell everyone about it. The next time it happened I was fishing and while adjusting my corset a man saw me but only asked why I wore them.
While working on this farm a school teacher vacationing with her brother (my employer) found my corsets and at noon asked me how they fit right in front of everyone else. Next I was lampooned at a school Pie Social.
Soon after I left and went to the City. Were it possible to relive this time I would go on as I had. It is my belief that all that would have happened would have been that I would have been classisfied as an eccentric and nothing more.
After leaving the farm, I wore corsets as before but was very discreet about the matter. There was no desire to wear other items of feminine clothing until I saw a female impersonator on the stage (Karl Norman). Now I began to experiment with stockings and lingerie. These gave me a feeling of contentment and pleasure and I began to pad my bust and try dresses and skirts. The trouble here was size; 18% is a bit too tight while size 20 is too large. I settled on skirts, shirts and sweaters.

My great desire now which I feel is growing stronger all the while is to dress openly. I cannot afford a wig and my facial features are quite masculine. When I try make-up it looks grotesque to me although I do believe a professional beauty operator could improve me considerably.
A girl I once met wanted me to go to a masquerade and even
