STRANGE CONFESSIONS "Everybody's Sweetheart"

President Don the John's interactions with Stormy Daniels remind us...
...of the double standard too many males (not "men" by any standard) still apply when commenting on male-female relationships!
Ben Brown and David Gantz illustrated this never-reprinted warped-morality parable for Ziff-Davis' Strange Confessions #3 (1952).
BTW, the writer is, mercifully for him or her, unknown, but might well be the Ziff-Davis comics line's editor, Jerry (Superman) Siegel!

ACTUAL CONFESSIONS "Plain Girl"

This is not the usual "ugly duckling transforms into swan and wins studly guy" tale...
...which may be why this story from Atlas' Actual Confessions #13 (1952) has never been reprinted!
See, girls?
When you look past the surface, you might find your "knight in shining armor!
I've always found it ironic that in stories like these, "plain girls" lust for studmuffins, transform into glamorous creatures and win the beefcake!
The women were unwilling to see beyond appearance to what lay within, much as they accused the men in these tales of doing!
This life-lesson brought to us by penciler Ben Brown, inker David Gantz, and an unknown writer!
