Real Solution stick to the hand that's been dealt to you! Come Hell or High Water, keep looking for your Own Brand in the Great Big General Store of Happiness. Even if you walk out empty handed, I personally believe you will still be better off than trying a very shaky compromise at best. For the winning of a few momentary plaudits from society-the good graces of well-meaning, but very poorly informed, friends and relatives you risk not only a future hell for yourself, but for a woman—and worse yet, for children. No, I just can't buy it!
And the police files are full of the middle aged, one-time offender andloser . . . This one who has played it clean-right down the line-somehow, never yielded . . . until one night he's on the loose that one, fatal moment...

Dinner downtown a couple of drinks . . . and nothing-nothing to do.
He goes for a walk in a park . . .
or steps into a latrine...
Or decides on a daring experiment--to visit a "gay" bar . . .
Oh! This poor innocent! What knows he of entrapment?
Who then explains it to a teen age Linda or Johnny about their dad? Who explains it to a wife who has given everything for this "husband's" happiness? Who stops the scandal? Saves his job? Who repairs this Hell then? Who saves him from the terrors of his own soul? Who bails him out of the gutter of guilt?
Who is there then to explain that what went wrong with this man was not the incident of the present-but a thing ill-advised long, long ago.

Solution to August CAMPOGRAM
Mr. F. of Stone Mountain Ga. writes "The August CAMPOGRAM was fun. Deciphered the paragraph should read as follows":
"Whatever factors are considered, it must not be forgotten that the basic phenomenon to be explained is an individual's preference for a partner of one sex, or for a partner of the other sex, or his acceptance of a partner of either sex. This problem, is after all, part of the broader problem of choice in general: the choice of the road that one takes, of the clothes that one wears, of the food that one eats of the place in which one sleeps, and of the endless other things that one is constantly choosing. A choice of a partner in a sexual relation becomes more significant only because society demands that there be a particular choice in this matter, and does not so often dictate one's choice of food or of clothing." Sexual Behavior in the Human Male, by Kinsey, Pomeroy and Martin.
