your wife (if you have one) by volunteering to do some of the less pleasant household tasks that you usually leave to her. In general, try to see what you are doing and saying and feeling objectively and try to determine if there isn't another way to do, say and feel in the same situation. How would a woman handle the same circumstances. See if you can allow yourself to approximate that sort of reaction. The more you try the better you will get to be at it and the better you get to be, the more most people but particularly women will appreciate the new you. In effect see what you can do to escape from the prison and go "over the wall." Learning to have the guts to be a non-conformist, a non-male chauvinist, an androgenous individual will have its problems. But it also has its rewards. The better you get at it the more of a total human being you are as compared to the half human individuals that presently populate the world. Read again the quotation at the bottom of the inside front cover of this magazine and substitute the gender terms masculine and feminine for the sex terms male and female and substitute "a state of greatest fulfillment and happiness" for the word "kingdom." I think you will see what I mean.

GOOD NEWS

I have received word from Marilyn, the instigator and mistress of the famous "DREAMS" of 1972, 73, 74, 75 and 76, that there WILL BE a DREAM in 1978. Marilyn had to take a vacation from all the work and planning that goes into the activity this year to catch up on a lot of her personal work (such as making a living), and so there was no DREAM in 1977. But for all those who went to any of the previous ones, it will be a delicious piece of news that she will be back in operation next year. All those who have attended previous DREAMS will receive notices of the plans for next year. But those who have not attended in the past won't be on her mailing list so I am taking this opportunity to mention it to you a year ahead of time so that plans can be made. If any of you would like to get the information from her, feel free to write to her about it. Write DREAM, Box 58, 507 3rd. Ave., Seattle, WA 98104. I can't take space here to tell you all about it, but she will be pleased to send descriptive brochures and information to you on request. A whole week at a beautiful condominium resort, dressed as the lady you'd like to be from early in the morning until late at night and to get professional instruction in all feminine arts and graces certainly should be a DREAM for all of you. Plan on it.
