16:13 Question of the Week:
Question: How do you face adversity, fear, and paranoia of people finding out about your secret side? What do you say to someone who says, "I don't care what anybody says, to see a man in female clothes, something is just not right, say what you want but something has been WRONG for a long time". It starts to seep into your head sometimes you start to believe it. (from ?????)
