Labelled "Queer"

As for this year some interesting observation have been made. Only if people were not in danger of being labelled "queer" were they prepared to participate. Hence the acceleration of pedestrian traffic through the foyer during the time the table was manned. The Psychology Society lunchtime forums being an established 'happening", people felt free to attend without being labelled one of us. Perhaps it is a mere myth that university students are radical, tolerant, engineers of social change. Or more probably, even students do not feel free to assist in fighting for an end to homosexual oppression lest they themselves be put in that dreadful category. Gay Liberation (VUW) is not intended to be exclusively for gays. We need all the support which you are prepared to give us.

Our objectives are these: a) To campaign for a new social environment where homosexuals have an equal status with heterosexuals as guaranteed in the United Nations Charter. b) To campaign to end all discrimination in law and in society against homosexuals, c) To continually press for reform of legislation to achieve the above objects.
