Page 8 THE BATTALION FRIDAY, APR. 2, 1976 Women discuss two-career marriages By DENISE EDMONDS “There has always been a women’s lib,” said Ruth Schaffer, professor of sociology at Texas A&M yesterday during the fourth day of the Wo men’s Career Conference. Joyce O Rear and Kerry Hope from the A&M Personal Counseling Service spoke to the 30-member au dience about the obstacles and ad vantages of being a married career woman. Hope related the progress through history of the American woman in the working world. “Even in colonial America, women were not completely passive,” she said. By the end of the 19th century, only four and one-half per cent of the women were outside the home work ing, compared to the 55 per cent in 1965, said Hope. “Now women are 35 per cent of the working force, and they usually still take a man’s name,” Hope said.

According to Freud, when a woman realized she was not built the same as a man, she felt inferior, Hope said. Obstacles for women desiring a family and career are: 1) children (how to provide mother substitutes), 2) husband (what are his attitudes), 3) household chores (who does them), 4) money (whose is it), O’Rear said. Ruth and Albert Schaffer, Warren Dixon and his wife, Mary Lenn Mil ler were the two married couples who have dealt with the obstacles in a two-career marriage, and shared some of their experiences with the audience. Albert Schaffer, professor of sociol ogy at A&M. The most fundamental thing to be decided when two people who both want careers get married is if they want children, and how the division of labor will be worked out , said Warren Dixon, assistant professor of political science at A&M, said even if you are open minded, when you get married you find yourself playing the sex roles. For example, not marrying until 34 years old and probably ironing shirts before his wife was born, he finds himself tel ling her when he needs clean shirts. he said. Some advantages for a t\vi marriage are: 1) fulfillingyoj as a woman, 2) bringing s«| more vital to your marriagtl extra money, said O’Rear. > Today is the last day off men’s Career Conference ] periences of five women witlj is the subject of today’s: 601 Rudder Tower, noont Movie Review By BILL CURNUTT FELLINI’S ROMA — Fredrico Fellini and his fantasy vision of Rome and its beginning.

Anderson Hospit; and Tumor Institute A reader explains: “I own a furniture factory and recently one of my best woodworkers had a cancer operation. He seems fine and wants to come back to work. Wouldn’t he be better off retiring early and not have to face people?” ASSWERline: Absolutely not. There is nothing shame ful about having been treated for cancer. The man wants to enjoy the life that his treatment has made pos sible. It’s our hunch that he will be a better woodworker than ever. It’s not a kindness to deny him the right to do meaningful work, of which he is capable. It might interest you to know as an employer that a study done by the Metropolitan Insurance Com pany of its many employees who returned to work after cancer treatment, showed that they had no more ab sences for sickness than other employees.

I was surprised to discover that my mother and my married sister don’t do breast self- examination. Shouldn’t all women?” A SSWER line: Unfortunately, a recent Gallup survey showed that fewer than one- fourth of American women practice breast self-examina tion regularly, Sometimes it is a matter of ignorance or fear.
