One last example. I know a lot of women teachers. You think they need liberation? Like hell. They smoke and drink and swear like sailors and swagger around in comfortable pant suits while the men strangle in shirts and ties. And the real clincher is that they make as much money as men, and frequently more. Top administrative jobs are open to them. They don't want them. Why?.Not because they can't handle them. Most of them would do a better job than the dim- witted males who now inhabit these posts. No. It's because they don't want to give up their feminine perks: staying home for two days with a sniffle; shooting off to the hair -dresser once a week; breaking into tears when everything becomes Too Much For Me. I have always treated a woman as a woman first and a person second. I have used the same treatment with old men and little kids. If I have to start treating women as people first and women second. I know who is going to complain the loudest. The women. And the second loudest complaint will be from yours truly. It will destroy all the mystery and glamor and ex- citement which are the only things that make life worthwhile. Men, rally around. For years, both sexes have been more equal, but women have been more equal than men. Now, all they want to do is widen the gap. Some of my best friends have been women, but how would you like your son to marry one? RCMP officer at Shipka for weekend By MRS.

The whole effect is one, of innocence betrayed by villainous husbands and only vindicated by the appearanceof Prince Charming. There are rounds of personal relationships, all portrayed as being very meaningful. Husbands and wives are forever courting. There is little place for the usual. Women must never be taken for granted. Many naive viewers must have been sorely disappointed by the cold realities of life. Herta Herzog in a studyof soap operas in the 1940's discovered three main satisfactions for their followers. There was emotional release, opportunity for building castles in the air, and a source of advice. This latter was not very practical but rather a very general knowledge about life. Social scientists in their media studies have found that people are rather selective in their identifications with characters and problems seen on the screen. They are interested in things only according to their needs and life view. Thus soap operas tend to reinforce the status quo rather than launch their addicts on new life styles. Soap operas can be educative. Society changes faster than in- dividuals in it. Thus our dramas teach people the social ex- pectations of the day. People living in a world for which they were not schooled find in the soap operas companions with which they can relate much as young people relate to other young people. All of these theories and guesses are not very interesting and become means to test our own viewing practices. Not only so, but if any or all of these theories should prove true, the use of soap operas to initiate counselling or to change life styles would be shown to be very practical. 1 once started a national campaign for PORK (Parents of Rotten Kids).
