First, I must say that I feel I have certain qualifications to write on this subject as I have supported a family on my own, I am under thirty, and female! And away we go! A lot of married women’s feelings about “libbing” are based on two things: whether or not they work, and their husband’s attitudes. As we working gals know, it is very aggravating to pull 8 hours on the job, and then go home to 4 hours of housework. If hubby doesn’t mind helping out, things are fine. If, however, he is a lazy soul, who feels that supporting (or providing a lot of the support) for his family is the extent of his duties, then he really is a male chauvinist pig. And, needless to say, his wife has dreams of herself as liberated, equal and happy. All women do not work on the outside, but find plenty to do at home and might be financially solvent enough to not work in a business. They face problems, too, though, because the drud gery of housework can get a lady down. And their spouses just cannot understand that housework is just that Work. Naturally, these ladies too have dreams of libera tion. So where does that leave us? My feeling is that it leaves us with a lot of dissatisfied women. The question is: Do they have a right to be unhappy? There are ways of determining this. First of all, answer these questions: If you do work outside thq home, and your husband doesn’t help at night, is it your fault? Have you sat down and explained tactfully your dissatisfaction? Per haps, if you did, you might find him more willing to help than you’d expected. After all, he has certainly realized by now that it’s no longer considered sissified to do so. If you are a housewife, is it by personal choice? If not, (for instance if your husband prefers you at home) and you want to work, a good heart-to-heart discussion could help. Maybe lack of training is your problem. That being the case, surely that old family budget might take a little more strain or perhaps you could get a loan. Every person needs fulfill ment of some type. Now, don’t get me wrong. A lot of women are perfectly happy with what they’re doing. As I said, I am not a liberation nut, except in the sense of personal liberation for everyone. Equal pay for equal work does sound good, but I still like to have a man help me with my coat, pull out my chair, etc. My own personal viewpoint is that regardless of sex, everyone deserves to be free in regards to type of work, personal feelings, and all the amendments to our country’s constitution. “I’M SORRY, DEAR” I know not best the way to say “I’m sorry, dear, for the fuss today. I lost my temper and said too much I even called you A Such and Such. But I still love you you know it’s so. I’ll just try harder my spouse to know. You’re not all bad, you’re right o.k. That’s really bout all I want to say Cept, please forgive me, I’m NOTICE DUE TO THE HIGH COST OF MA TERIAL and MY NEED FOR SPACE, ALL SHOES AND WORK WILL BE DISPOSED OF AFTER 30 DAYS. City Shoe Repair SI'S™ Mclntosh State Bank THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1974 trying, too To bite my tongue instead of you. God made us all a ways from great But he alone controls our fate.” I’m sorry, Dear. DEAR CINDY Dear Cindy, I have just graduated from high school and don’t want to go to college for a year, but my parents are insistent that I begin this fall. What do you think? Confused Dear Confused, You didn’t give me much information to go on, so I shall assume: Your parents are able and willing to send you to school; You’re not anticipating marriage in the near future; And, you plan to work while you’re deciding what to do. More and more young people are now waiting until they’re 19 or so to begin preparing for a career via college. There are advan tages as well as disadvan tages to this way of doing things. First, the advantages. By waiting, you will probably have gained more maturity. Also you will have had a chance to find out what the 8-5 world is all about. Your interests will hopefully broaden and you’ll be more sure of a career. During this time, you’ll be living away from home, I suppose, which will help you gain responsi bility. (You’ll also learn to better appreciate your par ents!) Secondly, the disadvan tages : you may decide not to go to school at all, which I feel (especially in this day of unsure finances) would be a mistake. Next, you could* decide to marry —at your age I don’t feel this wise. And thirdly, your parents may feel a little breach in their relationship with you as they have probably sacrificed to be able to send you to school. They love you enough, though, that they would probably get over their disappointment and if you finally did go to school, might even find your choice wise. Talk it over seriously with your parents. Be honest and fair. Listen to their side of the story. Then together, the three of you could reach a solution. Cindy SltUltU jewcbuf Phone 775-7798 128 E.
