2 or 3 big camers poking their noses at you. Just as well to have the experience where the audience is somewhat limited instead of on some show that might go over a network. I think I can handle the latter
now and as a matter of fact I think the time is about ripe for it. Any way it came off well.
Then next day we had the luncheon.
There were
14 of us--one GG. I talked for about an hour about Sex and Gender and finally got to the point by ex- plaining that perhaps the best way to illustrate what I had just said was to point out that there were 14 in the room but while there were 13 males and 1 fe- male there were only 12 men and two women. I let that sink in for awhile and then confessed all. They were all most interested, asked lots of questions and commented that they had learned much from the meeting. I hope I not only told them things speci- fically about TVism, but more than that I think I provided some insights for them into some aspects of human existance that they had not previously had occasion to give much thought to. It was a lot of fun. There are a lot of young, dedicated, socially aware young ministers about who feel the need to re- late themselves mre to society as it is than as it is hypocritically supposed to be by most of the older middle class, and complacent churchgoing types. These men can and should be reached. If you want to do something for the cause look up one in some Church (try the Unitarians) near you and talk to him. Use
a ficticious name if you wish but try yourself out on him. If he is interested you can doubtless get him to get together with some of his peers in other churches and you will be on your way. Lots more of you should be out in the field working on this pro- blem if we are ever going to get anywhere. Every other minority is, why aren't we doing it?
Well, the next day was Aloha day and I had to bid farewell to the islands, the friends, the relax- ed time as Virginia and take off for home which I I had two more days after I got home before
did.
