• We, The Women
By RUTH MILLETT
Only a man would:
Enjoy wearing an old hat.
Use profanity to show how tick-
led he is to see un old friend.
Believe that he is irresistible to
the opposite sex.
Call nail polish, "that awful red
stuff."
Turn first to the sport page of

Walk into a store and buy the
first thing he is shown.
Brag about taking a cold show-
er every morning of the year.
Stop on a cold day to watch o
steam shovel work.
Buy a two-year-old son a foot-
ball.
Enjoy cleaning a gun.
HE MAY FORGET
HIS ANNIVERSARY
Expect a haircut to be noticed
and commented on.
Buy a suit so nearly like the
one before he is the only person
who knows he has a new one.
Forget his wedding anniversary.
Judge the success of a vacation
by the number of miles he web
able to drive each day.
Come back from an important
dinner and not be able to name
everything on the menu.
Read while a barber cuts away,
undirected.

You Know What Men
Hate; Why Not Try
Avoiding It
By ALICIA HART
NEA Service Staff Writer
By this time we know pretty
well what men hate — crooked
stocking scums, badly fitted
clothes, streuked makeup, and so
on.
Let's begin the New Year smart-
ly by reminding ourselves of the
kind of grooming they like, the
type of clothes they like to see us
wear.
The average man of taste likes:
LIPSTICK. But he doesn't like
to see us spend much time putting
it on at the table after eating.
This is a job we have to do quick-
ly and as inconspicuously as pos-
sible.
TAILORED SUITS. But he
doesn't want us to wear a severe
hat, a mannish blouse, and flat-
heeled shoes with them.
PERFUME'S SWELL —
OUT OF THE OFFICE
PERFUME, But he doesn't like
it in the office.
A FRESH LOOK. But he doesn't
much go for a scrubbed, shiny
look on anyone over 18. On adults,
he prefers suave grooming to lit-
tle girl effects.
A GOOD LISTENER. But he
hates being stared straight in
the eye for an hour while he
talks. When he finishes his mono-
logue, he ¡ikes an intelligent com-
ment better than a vapid "uh-huh"
or "really" or "my, you're wonder-
ful."
A GOOD DANCER. But he
hates being made to feel conspic-
uous on the dance floor by fancy
steps or much rolling of eyes or
a great deal of shoulder patting.
SMOOTH, WHITE HANDS,
SHINY HAIR UNDER
FLATTERING HATS
SHINY HAIR. You don't have
to do your hair up in the latest
coiffure style to please him, but
you do have to keep it clean and
shiny.
JEWELRY, PRECIOUS AND
OTHERWISE. But he doesn't like
to see bracelets, a pin, earrings,
rings and a clip worn at the same
time, in Christmas tree manner.
FLATTERING HATS. They can
be plain, just plain goofy or
somewhere between the two, but
they must be becoming.
