...overcome deep laminations of prejudice by female as well as male voters. Doubtless the ideal woman candidate would have held a number of previous public offices, so that her identity in jobs of responsibility and power would be fixed in the public mind. As with Indira Gandhi and Golda Meir, her persona would be politically rather than sexually defined...
...comes up over Israel, the steward makes an announcement: "You are now over Tel Aviv. Blessed be your coming." The 707 wheels, dips and lands lightly; as it does, the passengers burst into applause and patriotic Hebrew songs. "God bless Golda Meir," shouts an exuberant Georgian.

Israel received substantial benefits for agreeing to take part, so much so that Israeli-American relations have risen from an alltime low last fall to a new high. For one thing, the U.S. decided to deliver 40 or so Phantom jets that Premier Golda Meir had sought to buy for a year.

The thesis that violence is a 'masculine' way of solving conflict is self-righteously assumed by a writer who has apparently forgotten about Indira Gandhi and Golda Meir. In "How to Writes Your Own Marriage Contract", achievement in male terms, i.e., production of marketable goods, is substituted for housework. The danger here lies in women identifying too closely with men and their desires. If worst came to logical worst, we could all turn into Norman Mailers, merely switching sexes within...
