you and your room-mate, but left me out, would be as scientifically invalid, as to generalize from a sample that included your room-mate and me, and left you out. We belong, in fact. to only one generality-human kind. When the rest of human kind can be brought to recognize this, when the real, deep. underlying conformity that is called prejudice the truly
dangerous conformity of our own and all past times can be educated away and replaced by acceptance of the sexual, as well as the mental, physical. political, philosophical, religious individuality of all men, a great good will have been achieved.
Unhappily, books like Dr. White's only impede such an achievement. -James Colton
