Page 4 THE BATTALION THURSDAY, APRIL 11, 1974 ‘Gender has little meaning in sex 9 BATTALION CLASSIFIED be per word ional day charge—75c NEW YORK (-flP)—Lydia is a suburban housewife with three grown children. She says she loves her husband, but she loves a wo man, too. Don is a 30-year-old bachelor who says that men and women are equally attractive to him. He has had affairs with both. Lydia and Don and hundreds of other people today call them selves bisexual. To Don it means “to be able to seek out a sex and love partner totally on the basis of human feeling as opposed to gender.” Bisexuality has become a hot topic these days. Many shrug it off as a fad, but psychiatrists de bate the lifestyle as intensely as they do homosexuality. No matter what the profession al opinion, certain notables past and present have espoused and declared their bisexuality, includ ing Alexander the Great, Napo leon, Julius Caesar—of whom it is said, “He was every woman’s man and every man’s woman.” This generation’s proponents in clude feminist Kate Millett, rock star David Bowie, actress Maria Schneider, star of “Last Tango in Paris,” and the late Janis Jop lin. A group called Bisexual Liber ation has chapters in five states claims more than 1,000 members and holds monthly workshops and dances. One founder, Don Fass, says that bisexuality is “an al ternate lifestyle I enjoy and it’s good for me.” Some see bisexuality as a di rect outgrowth of gay liberation and the women’s movement. John Paul Hudson, a New York psychologist writing a book about bisexuality, says, “Through the women’s movement, women value each other more instead of think ing themselves inferior. They also see that man is not the be-all and end-all of existence and that he is even expendable as far as sexual pleasure is concerned. Gay lib has helped men to deal with chauvinist attitudes and many more men are honoring the homo sexuality in their make-up.” And there are those who doubt that there is any such thing as bisexuality. “I just don’t think there are too many true bisexuals around,” said Charles Silverstein, a psychi atrist who is gay. “I think a bi sexual is a homosexual who’s afraid of commitment. And a ho mosexual going through the rit ual of sex with a woman is not a bisexual.” Dr. Wardell Pomeroy, a psy chiatrist who worked with Dr. Alfred Kinsey, believes there are true bisexuals—he prefers to call them “pansexuals, people who have the capacity to develop sex ually in many different ways.” WANT AD RATES One day *<: per word each additr Minimum charge—7 Classified Display $1.00 per column inch each insertion DEADLINE 3 p.m. day before publication FOR RENT SPECIAL NOTICE attention^may^graduaTes G R A D U ATION ANNOUNCEMENTS WILL BE DELAYED BY A WEEK.

Nixon 9 s reception (Continued from page 1) beans and sugar beets are the principal providers, Nixon prom ised to send federal energy chief William E. Simon to try to allevi ate local fertilizer shortages. And in Saginaw, he reempha sized to a predominantly white audience his opposition to school busing and to any interference with local schools. He greeted Air Force Capt. Robert Abbott of Deckerville, Mich., and said: “For the first time in 12 years we have peace. For the first time in 25 years not one young American is being drafted. Every American is home where he belongs, not in a prison camp in Hanoi.” There were demonstrators at every stop, particularly in San dusky. They waved placards with such legends as “Impeach the Thief,” “Nixon Coddles Crimi nals,” and “Jail to the Thief.” In Saginaw, as Nixon leaned from the top of his white Buick convertible to shake hands with well-wishers, protesters behind them began shouting “Pay Your Taxes.” The car speeded up as it passed the booing section of the crowd. After the trip. Senate Majority Whip Robert P. Griffin, R.-Mich., said he believed the trip would help Sparling, who is opposed by Democrat J. Robert Traxler. He said it was bound to increase the voter turnout in an area where a heavy turnout normally would favor a Republican. State Republican Chairman William McLaughlin, who earlier had been dubious about the value of the trip, called it “fabulous— nothing but a plus.” “It’s got to help us in the campaign,” he said. Sparling carefully avoided either praise or censure in his remarks. Before the motorcade began, he told a reporter: “Nixon is not here as a campaigner. He’s here to address himself to the issues.” Traxler, a state representative, has said that Nixon and his record are the only issues in his campaign. He said he believed Nixon’s visit helped him. Nixon alluded to that when he noted at Cass City that Sparling “is not just against, but for.” The Thumb, named because it sticks up like a thumb from the rest of the state, has been de scribed as so heavily Republican that a Democratic candidate for governor in the 1930’s who came from the area could manage only two votes from the 2,000 residents of his home town. As Nixon returned to Wash ington, Press Secretary Ronald L. Ziegler said Nixon “was very pleased” by reaction he received. Town Hall choices (Continued from page 1) Thorpe pointed out that there was actually very little chance the performers could be signed for the dates requested but the recommendations were made as a priority listing for MSC Pro grams Coordinator Hal Gaines to aid in his selection of the per formers. “We feel this list provides a very good perspective for the program we want,” said Thorpe. “This should give him (Stark) a good idea of what’s going on.” Deadline extension The deadline for entering prints in the Camera Committee Photo Salon has been extended to 5 p.m. Friday, April 12. Prints may be delivered to the Student Programs Office. It costs 50- per print to enter and they must be on an 11 x 14 or 16 x 20 mount.
