Letter: Women's Lib

Letter: Women's Lib.

C. Wren in her article of Women's Lib. voices once again, a criticism that one finds constantly being made by the WLF that of the non-participation and non-assertion of female students in group discussions and student affairs due to a fear of being labelled unfeminine by the male egoists. I would agree with this. However, it always occurs to me to ask where the WLF is on these occasions. C. Wren specifically mentions the Baxter/ Ritchie discussion but did she or any member of the WLF speak at the discussion? The same goes for SRC and Forum. During the recent Women's Vice-President elections there was no WLF candidate. Why don't the members of WLF get off their backsides and do something other than write cute little articles and hold ineffective meetings. Maybe they're afraid of being labelled unfeminine.
