IF YOU'RE ON MIDWEST VIDEO'S CABLE
YOU AREN'T GOING TO MISS ANYTHING,
(adv)
By JAMES R. JACKSON
Kate Millet, speaking at TU,
said “There’s a spectre haunting
the country today, and it’s called
Women’s Liberation.”
Miss Millet, author of “Sexual
Politics,” spoke on an array of
topics related to women’s libera
tion, a movement she said was
“shrill, uncertain, faction-ridden”
but “certain to succeed.”
She thinks reproduction and
socialization, “the purposes of a
family,” can be done elsewhere.
There is no such thing as the
“liberated woman,” according to
Kate Millet, one of women’s lib
eration’s most outspoken activ
ists.
She agreed there are plent of
women who are content as house
wives and who don’t want to be
“liberated.” She added, “You
can’t coerce anybody into being
liberated, or they’d scarcely be
free.”

An article in The Rice Thresh
er stated, “Many young men are
secret conscientious objectors.” It
adds that the secret is kept even
from the C.O.’s.
According to the article, the
secret C.O.’s remain needlessly
hung up on the word “religious.”
The article makes a distinction
between “traditional” religious
convictions and <f beliefs, no mat
ter how unorthodox” that func
tion as religion for an individual.
It states that both types of be
liefs have been upheld by the
Supreme Court for C.O. status.

At SMU veneral disease cases
have doubled in the past 12
months.
Dr. J. E. Wiedeman, health
center director, said all four phy
sicians at the center reported VD
cases have increased “very defi
nitely” in the past year.
He said most physicians feel
that the advent of the birth con
trol pill has caused an attitude
toward “freer sex,” and that the
increase in VD may possibly be
attributed to this.

To the students who were will
ing to argue with me about my
Nov. 5 article, in which I com
mented on women’s lib, I applaud
you for taking a stand. So many
students are apathetic.
Admittedly, one or two of my
statements were extreme. I think
you define “manhandling” a little
different than I do. I should say
every woman wants to relate to
a man as a woman. OK?
However, I must say you were
somewhat naive in your response
— even though you have over
come your apathy.

I am well aware of the param
eters of the libber’s movement.
Of course, they involve more than
bra-burning and anti-chauvinism.
They also involve more than the
“freedoms” you referred to in
your letter. It would probably
take much more time to define
them.
You missed the point if you
failed to see the humor — or
rather the sarcasm. What I was
trying to reveal was the hypoc
risy of a lot of women who pro
fess to believe in a good thing,
yet really do not practice what
they preach. Most women only
give lip service to the lib.
These women hurt their move
ment more than they help it.
They are the ones who inces
santly pound us males over the
head with such meaningless
rhetoric as “male chauvinist pig.”
If the Maggies who criticized
my article are so concerned and
honestly feel devoted to the wom
en’s lib movement, why have you
not initiated a women’s rights
organization at A&M? I say you
are hypocrites!
