Unapologetic Sam Aurelius Milam III It seems to me that some feminists are still unhappy about the behavior of men in the workplace. Here's what I think. If they can keep complaining after all of this time, then so can I. After all, it isn't equality unless it works the same way in both directions, and they said that they wanted equality. Right? Okay, so here's some equality for them. We didn't invite the feminists into our workplaces. They forced their way in, uninvited. Did they expect that, when they got there, we'd all behave like women? We're not women. We're men. We behaved like men. We still do. If they wanted to work someplace where everybody behaved like women, then they should have established workplaces for women only. They still could. They still should. Then we could have male only workplaces, female only workplaces, and mixed gender workplaces. A man could choose whichever kind of workplace suited him the best. So could a woman. Choice and diversity. What wild ideas in the land of the free. Making moves on women is normal behavior for men. We'll do it wherever we encounter them, even at work. We might not always be classy about it, but it's in our genes and it isn't going to change. Furthermore, the long-term consequences of repressing our behavior are more likely to be harmful than the long-term consequences of just putting up with it. Those women who graciously refused our advances, and those who kindly consented, did a lot more good for the well-being of women in the workplace than those feminists who complained about our behavior, and punished us. It's in a man's nature to pursue women. Such behavior in the workplace is predictable and, in my opinion, it's entirely legitimate. Whatever the case, we're going to keep doing it, whether or not the feminists complain about it. We aren't always elegant or suave in our amorous pursuits but, with the possible exception of that lack of style, we don't owe the feminists any apologies. Letters to the Editor Dear Sam, Let me apologize beforehand because I know this letter will end up with messy handwriting. At this prison, I'm back in a cell and it has no desk in the cell so I'm reduced to sitting Indian style on my bunk, hunched over and writing the best that I can. The way my body is twisted up isn't conducive to a fifty something person with arthritis. But I'll do my best. Thanks for including your "Usage, Incrementalism, and Fascism" article in the May '20 "Frontiersman", it is a good essay.... In your May '20 Frontiersman you make a reference to Arthur C. Clarke's short story "The Wall of Darkness". Can you give me more info on it such as what publication was it printed in? Do you have a I.S.B.N. number for it? Where should I look for it? etc. And man Sir Donald opened his mouth and inserted his foot, his rant totally proved your point! [Letters to the Editor, page 3, May issue] Funny! In your "attitude adjustment" I remember that show of where the wife is yelling at the husband about not "wanting" to do the dishes. For some reason, my memory is telling me it was "Mike and Molly", which is a total "ball busting" feminist show. You speak of mind control and commercial marketing. I'll tell you, "men" are being attacked for being "straight", television is making children think if they aren't "gender neutral" that they are racist homophobes. I think your question of what would happen if cops subjected detainees to "virtual reality" is only around the corner. I think sci-fi has made many movies in this scenario. It's only a matter of time until people are put under, say by cryo-sleep, and force fed government ideas sub-consciously by virtual reality. And what a great companion to your point and Winston in Orwell's 1984. Anyway, my hands are killing me, knees too. I pray your health is holding up old friend. I shall write more later. Very truly, —S. H., a prisoner
My copy of The Wall of Darkness is in The Other Side of the Sky, an anthology edited by Arthur C. Clarke. The anthology was published by Harbrace Paperbound Library, Harcourt, Brace & World, Inc. The copyright date is 1958. They weren't using ISBN's back then. Regarding ISBN's, note that the "n" in

Just Say No
Sam Aurelius Milam III It isn't possible to improve government by armed revolution. Throughout history, every successful revolution has only replaced one bad government with another bad government. It isn't possible to improve government by voting. That only legitimizes a bad government, giving it a mandate for its evil deeds. The best option for attempting to improve government is abandonment. Don't do anything that would tend to either support it or legitimize it. Refuse to participate. Refuse to cooperate. Just say no. See my essay Abandonment, in Pharos. Susie
