...their first parliamentary encounter. Admitting a "deep gulf between her and me in political philosophy," Wilson said that he nevertheless "looked forward to the informality and, if I may say so, the intimacy of our meetings behind [the House Speaker's] chair." As male members roared at this chauvinist double-entendre, Mrs. Thatcher's polite fixed smile seemed to wear a little thin. But she is unlikely to be caught off balance often. Even senior Labor M.P.s concede that with her rapier-sharp forensic skills, she is likely to prove a very formidable opponent at the dispatch...

...daughter Susan, 17-not that she was so special. "I don't think she will do anything spectacular," he opined, suggesting that Susan herself was antifeminist. "She's not like some of those Miss Teenage Americas who always have some fancy career in mind-like nursing." Added Chauvinist Britt: "A job is all right if women can do an equal job, but I don't think they can." Too bad, Gardner. Susan's abilities may be more equal than he thinks.

...regarded as "role models"--possible links to the future, possible clues to the lot of women in today's world, outside the University's walls. It means that women in each of the Houses have felt compelled to form women's tables, however undirected, in the face of Male Chauvinist Pig counter-dinners. And if it doesn't mean that the Radcliffe Union of Students has managed to unify women undergraduates, it does mean that the Radcliffe administration is beginning to re-establish itself as a presence in the lives of the students it admits...

Most of all freshman year, I resented the fact that my sex was inescapably an issue, resented the constant necessity of defending myself and all of womanhood against chauvinist attacks. I resented the strain the unbalanced sex ratio placed upon my social relations, my academics and my general psyche. I resented the awkward merger-non-merger of Harvard and Radcliffe which left all of us hanging, unsure of where we went to school.
