I am by no means a freak. Society is blind, and I do not care about their stupid views. Those of intelligence actually see my perfection, and you are obviously not intelligence. I am very happy, other than while reading your pathetic words.
Papa loves me, long before I became a woman. I am his favorite child, he treats me with a fatherly love, and he is my father, no matter what you say.
I feel bad for your family, they have to suffer being near you. At least my family loves me.
Mrs. Lyness

Lady made pretties!
