Dear Editor

LETTERS

Editor's Note: Sometimes those who are stuck with D, E and F type wives come to believe that all women are that way. The following true letters voluntarily written by women and the third, indicating an "A" type wife, will serve to reassure you that understanding females do exist.

Dear Virginia,

I am 22 years old and married to a 35-year-old man who is a transvestite. He has practiced this for many years and his first marriage failed miserably because his wife would not accept his way of sexual satisfaction. We now presently have a beautiful relationship which I feel is owed to his transvestism. We have a close emotional and physical bond and we both get profound pleasure from his dressing in highly sexual clothing such as garters, black nylons, etc. He is a very loving and tender person during these sessions and our lovemaking is highly accentuated by these things. I strongly agree with you when you stated in your Forum magazine interview that most women are a victim of society's rules and expectations of a man. My husband is a good provider, a wonderful father and again, a loving partner. I feel any woman who denies her man the pleasure he derives from this practice is denying herself the opportunity of a close relationship far more than any other couple could imagine. I want to commend you for speaking out and letting society know that trans- vestites are not social or sexual cripples, that they are men who just prefer having feminine qualities. I wish women would open their eyes
