RANSVESTIA

About five years ago, in an attempt to save a crumbling marriage mostly because of TVism I sent for your book on transvestism and

wives. I never showed it to her.

The relationship between my wife and myself had fallen to the point where nothing short of a miracle would help.

I divorced her, spent a year feeling sorry for myself and began courting again and found a very pretty, young, well-educated and best of all, a modern thinking, broadminded girl with whom I lived for two years before once again entering the state of matrimony.

She had a pretty good idea about what I liked in the feminine world and seemed very open-minded to my feelings regarding girls' clothing. She also liked all the desirable trends that go with it, such as love of beauty, gentleness, etc., but I did not know just how to explain it all. One Saturday afternoon I climbed into the old attic, found the book and dusted it off and gave it to her to read. She was very interested and after completing the last chapter, told me that not only did she under- stand, but could see little wrong with it and would help me all she could.

I took some photos of myself and showed them to her as a means of breaking her in slowly. I was dressed as a cowgirl, just as you suggested, and her comment was that I made a good-looking girl, that she thought since we are about the same height, weight, etc. (Tom, 138; she, 136. I am 5'81⁄2 and she is 5′8′′.), it would be fun to dress up together. I have recently undergone some plastic surgery and even look a little bit like her in the face.

Before giving her the book to read, I read it again myself and still feel that it is truly a wonderful piece of literature that would enlighten anybody with an open mind, making our case a solid and well- explained one.

Thank you with all my heart. Only someone like you can under- stand how much this means to me. And please, if I could be of any help in this one, let me know.

Yours truly,

Alice-Colo.
