      Dear
      Editor:
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Regarding
      an
      article
      ‘‘Campus
      Women”’
      in
      your
      September
      24th
     
     
      issue

      The
      author
      of
     
     
      this
      review
      seemed
      intent

      recognizing
      only
      two
      political
     
     
      party
      representations.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      It
      was
      the
      intention
      of
      the
      forum’s
      Planning
      Committee
      to
     
     
      recognize
      that
      women
      can
      and
      do
      participate
      in
      all
      political
     
     
      arenas
      (municipal,
      provincial,
      and
      federal)
      and
      from
      a
      diverse
     
     
      field
      of
      political
      persuasions
      which
      certainly
      includes
      more
     
     
      than
      two
      political
      parties.

      and

      Club:
     
    
   
   
    
     
      lusually
      don’t
      lower
      myself
      by
      responding
      to
      the
      tactics
      that
     
     
      you
      have
      used,
      however
      I
      feel
      I
      must
      comment
      on
      your
      letter
     
     
      Which
      appeared
      in
      the
      October
      22
      issue
      of
      the
      ‘‘X-Press’’.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      First
      of
      all,
      anyone
      who
      knows
      me
      (which
      obviously
      doesn’t
     
     
      include
      you
      and
      most
      of
      your
      ‘‘club’’)
      would
      agree
      that
      I
      may
     
     
      lack
      a
      lot
      of
      things
      (like
      a
      Porsche)
      buta
      sense
      of
      humour
      is
      not
     
    
   
   
    
     
      one
      ofthem.
      Please
      feel
      free
      to
      come
      talk
      to
      me
      and
      you’
      Il
      see
     
     
      What
      I
      mean.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Secondly,
      I
      cannot
      understand
      why
      I
      was
      not
      invited
      to
      the
     
     
      ‘Private
      gathering’’
      at
      which
      the
      Socrates
      Award
      was
      pre-
     
     
      Ri
      Yousee,
      I
      had
      a
      wonderful
      time
      at
      the
      year
      end
      Soc/Anth
     
     
      bash
      i
      in
      April
      1992
      (free
      liquor)
      but
      I
      guess
      I
      stepped
      ona
      few
      toes
     
     
      "!
      Were
      you
      there?
      Also,
      is
      this
      ‘‘rather
      creative
      professor’’
     
     
      On
      --
      wonder
      who)
      not
      teaching
      in
      an
      institution
      of
      higher
     
     
      learning?
      Why
      yes!
      That
      is
      what
      I
      would
      like
      to
      think
      UPEI
      is.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      And
      since
      this
      certain
      professor
      is
      teaching
      at
      UPEI,
      is
      he/she
     
     
      not
      a
      representative
      of
      this
      institution
      of
      higher
      learning?
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Thirdly,
      I
      would
      like
      to
      analyze
      the
      term
      ‘‘in-joke’’.
      ‘‘IN”’:
     
     
      since
      most
      of
      the
      university
      and
      outside
      community
      know
      of
      the
     
     
      circumstances
      surrounding
      the
      award,
      it
      really
      fails
      to
      be
     
    
   
   
    
     
      ”
     
    
   
   
    
     
      classified
      as
      an
      ‘‘in’’.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      *‘JOKE’’:
      clearly
      reflects
      that
      it
      may
      be
      you
      and
      your
      *‘club”’
     
     
      which
      lacks
      a
      sense
      of
      humour
      --
      or
      more
      likely
      so,
      you
      have
      very
     
     
      poor
      taste.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Inregards
      to
      your
      comments
      concerning
      the
      creation
      ofan
      award
     
     
      for
      me,
      I
      will
      have
      to
      pass
      as
      Ido
      NOT
      need
      ANOTHER
      award
     
     
      to
      hang
      on
      my
      wall.
      Ijust
      don’t
      have
      the
      room.
      Thanks
      anyway.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Asa
      fourth
      point,
      in
      regards
      to
      ‘‘The
      Movie’’,
      again
      you
      have
     
     
      made
      very
      false
      assumptions.
      I
      have
      seen
      pornography
      --
      not
     
     
      much,
      but
      enough
      to
      convince
      me
      that
      itis
      nothing
      but
      detrimen-
     
     
      tal
      to
      our
      society
      in
      general
      and
      women
      in
      particular.
      Also,
      if
     
     
      I
      ‘‘gotrid’’
      of
      my
      television,
      I
      wouldn’t
      see
      near
      enough
      of
      my
     
     
      friends
      (ie
      Heather
      J.
      Morrison).
      Yes,
      I
      must
      agree
      that
      Shannon
     
     
      Tweed
      remained
      completely
      clothed
      (I’m
      not
      going
      to
      vouch
     
     
      ‘*chaste’’).
      however,
      what
      about
      ‘‘Bunny’”’
      and
      the
      other
      dozen
     
     
      or
      so
      (I
      lost
      count)
      women
      who
      run
      around
      in
      rags
      with
      various
     
     
      parts
      of
      the
      human
      anatomy
      hanging
      out?
      Perhaps
      we
      could
     
     
      discuss
      the
      scene
      in
      which
      the
      main
      dominant
      male
      convinces
     
     
      the
      passive
      males
      (Donahues)
      to
      act
      like
      ‘‘real
      men’’
      by
      getting
     
     
      ‘*sloshed’’
      and
      gang
      raping
      ‘‘Bunny.’’
      Oops!
      There
      goes
      MY
     
     
      sense
      of
      humour.
      So
      you
      see,
      although
      Shannon
      Tweed
      remains
     
     
      completely
      clothed,
      that
      does
      not
      make
      this
      movie
      okay,
      does
