On Thursday a local radio show host talked all morning about finding a red dress to wear Friday for Women's Heart Awareness Day. He said he had looked all over, but couldn't find one in his size, which he claimed to be about a 22W - 24W. At one point, he made a reference to the Marv Alpert incident, and I felt obliged to send him a note. This is what I said:
Hi RJ:
We listen to you on a regular basis and love your show.
Regarding your Red Dress Day, there are a lot of us crossdressers in your listening area who do it with class and style.
My wife and I (yes, I'm married) cruise the Re-Uz-It Shops in the Lancaster area for nice clothes all the time, and I constantly see tons of red outfits in all kinds of sizes, so I'm sure you can find something if you look hard enough.
Our only request would be, if you follow through on this, do it with class and style and try not to make a circus out of it.
Best regards,
Missy Anne and wife
This morning, he immediately announced that he couldn't find a dress (wimped out, in my view) and mentioned my e-mail. Then he got kind of defensive, as though he had been called a crossdresser. I recorded his comments, but have no clue how to let you hear them, not that it matters anyway, but as Shakespeare once said, "Methinks he protesteth too much". We thought you all would find this humorous in some ways, but we didn't really like the tone of his comments. Do you think he could be a closet crossdresser?
Best regards,
Missy Anne
