TRUE STORY

Anonymous

The following story is a true, factual account of an experience of mine which occurred on July 27, 1969. As the title indicates my venture was not one of my more intelligent moves in the TV world.

Before I go into an account of what occurred allow me to give you a little background on myself. I am 30 years of age, 6' tall, 205 lbs., medium build, reasonably good-looking. I am employed as a Police Officer in a town of approximately 20,000 people. Needless to say I am known by thousands of people whom I have not met or ever will meet. I am married and have children. I also am buying my own home. I love my family very much and, of course, would never INTENTIONALLY do anything to harm them. None of the above facts make me any different from anyone else in my city but this last item does. I am a transvestite and have been since I was 7 or 8 years of age. Why, I don't really know but I have suffered through many bad moments and now through TVia and FPE, I am seeing better times ahead. My wife knows and permits limited expression of my "hobby." This on the understanding that I keep the dressing within reasonable limits. My story is the manner in which I nearly sacrificed my job, home and family because of a very rash act.

On July 23 I rushed my wife to the hospital seriously ill. Although I had been told my wife was in no critical life-and-death struggle, I was worried and between trying to work two jobs (I also hold a part-time job) see the children and run back and forth to the hospital, I began to overtire myself and tense up. My TV desires were bothering hell out of me but despite the empty house I had no spare time to indulge in dressing. Finally the explosion occurred.
