Acton Free Press Wednesday February lfl Teen Valentine dance News and views I nas na i Horse Maybe its because I of the female gender that I have only the greatest admiration for the woman and her abilities and am always ready to advocate loudly that anything a man cm do so can his female counterpart with certain limitations I might add Maybe it also because I am a woman hat I can respect her for all the things for which she stands motherhood inspiration counsellor sounding board and the performer of all the multitudinous and too often mundane tasks which make the female of the species a worthwhile partner in any marital or social sphere Maybe however it just because I am i woman that I resent refute and utterly despise the absolute stupidity of the newly emerging emancipated feminist who is according to news presently shaking up today society Now cliches to me have been a tired medium of selfexpression but somehow the old adages two heads are better than one and behind every brilliant mm a clever worn in over the centuries proved to be full truths but now suddenly someone is pulling the tug from under such ideologies who is managing that neat tuck but an entire group of stupid Itm iks who insist on the advocacy of equality of the sexes through the advancement of social political and economic status or women Woman power today will leave as much of a maik on development in the 70s as Black Power did in the according to one Toronto feminist leader stand today where Black emancipation was five years ago said Mrs Bonnie Our job now is make women aware of themselves is group Mrs Kreps is an attractive year old wife of a University of Toronto physicist She has a year old daughter and a full tune job as a television producer with CTV the television network She explains the new feminist as seeing roles developing out of sexual differences The role based on the capacity to have children is into a function than a she said recently and other things follow with the man acting from a position the rule supremacist which I am against Unfortunately Mrs ins a following of equally blighted and ill informed females who have no claim to the power of their own though Km I convictions So- I low newspapers in their search for something sensational and different have exploited the intelligence of such women who in their eagerness to perform and prove their super abilities have cashed in on cheap advertising to bring the wonderful pedestal of womanhood down to the lowly position of the chwmg female fighting for identity Who the heck wants to be identified with such a crass approach to living No true Canadian husband wants to relegate his wife to the kitchen and leave her there It has always been the dream of the mate spouse to give his wife the moon the stars and all the good things in life that he can attain for her If this true then song writers and poets have been writing vain since the world began Most men would like to present their frilly females with riches silks but it docsn I necessarily follow he can always accomplish this feat nor does it necessarily follow that these things are so important anyway thai his wife actually wants them in the first place Many men too willingly admit that their wives are clever little morsels of femininity who could have accomplished greater things and it would be a much easier role for jy husband to sit back and just let dear take over the responsibilities of the household management costs What these hard bitten females are too dull to realize is tint there is a certain luxury about being a pljin ordinary mother and forgive the expression housewife She can be pampered indulged be creative and if she really is bright enough to set the world on fire she can do so right in her own backyard without having knock herself out in the accompli slime But if she has so badly managed her affairs to have poorly chosen a brute for a husband who forced her into a position to which she rebels savagely well then me thinks this feminist must be a poor judge of character and worthless in the leader role for more clever female types who arc smart enough to manipulate as undercover promoters helping husbands to attain greater heights Try to imagine if you will how much more it would be to get one husband to work in the background towards a wife greater achievements than it is now the reversed situation and consider also how disgusting it would be to not respect the position of one spouse or worse jet to have to lake orders from mother woman Women bosses can be dictatorial petty jealous and callous Take the femininity out of womanhood and you have yourself a humourless and uninteresting female But true womanhood is J wmderful status and it doe mi take special degree to realize that men in then place is head of the family or in a respectful position or as the I leaders in ris and corporations would be like living in a society of Amazons and no one con tell this writer that the females who are total have not under their facade of determination and as pieblem or two with motivations as t their own feminine lack ol same So with the the hammer and saw slip into something ga Tunc out to stir the Ined turn the steak dash on some and and with a quick squish on the nozzle of Shelley s Slow Breeze be the most I cm mine little female in husband Let those wtio will conquer the world but you maid be The St John Church Parish Hall was jumping last Friday night when the Young People held their Valentine Sock Hop With continuous records playing hot rock regular pops

members of the organization the meetings were usually only attended by a small percentage of the church women and it was generally agreed upon by the Advisory members present that such a new group
