...douche concentrate that is offered in two floral scents (orange blossom and jasmine), as well as two flavor scents (raspberry and champagne). The ads were created by Marsteller Inc., a relatively sober agency that includes among its accounts IBM, Dannon Yogurt and Fruit of the Loom. Vogue banned any hint of the flavors, and the ad in that magazine showed only the floral scents...
Only a few articles hint at the meaning of female liberation. Betsy Warrior, in "Man as an Obsolete Life Form." by condemning man (not the species) for his aggressive, destructive tendencies, implies that the "female principle" (peacefulness, non-competitiveness) is what she values.

It is just possible that bringing the war home in even this small way may generate new commitment to peace in some individuals...
...head slightly, and Griffith cuts away to a bevy of side-lit dancing girls, the floor show, advancing and twisting. This cut, inexplicable if one tries to find in it some definite comment on Menjou's character greatly enlarges the weight of his gesture, draining a world from a hint of sentiment. And Griffith cuts not on the formal qualities of the two shots, or on their content, but on the ideal power that runs through the action of both...
