intuition or guardian angel or whatever that steered me to a right thinking man steers me right away from Betty Friedan and Gloria Steinem. They both come across very hard to me and I don’t like hardness especially in women. I’ve seen a certain hardness in certain men like Robin at Max’s K.C. but its a hardness that only covers up something good and gentle and I find that most exciting. But it is my opinion that Betty and Gloria are hard all the way down right to the bone marrow. That Betty has a purpose. I don’t know what it is but I have my suspicions. I can’t forget the visual image of her standing on a platform in Bryant Park like a field marshall. I would chicken out on a real debate with her. It would take a man to stand up to her. I see the day coming when the words femme and butch will be more commonly used. I mean to be used for heterosexuals not just gay or bisexuals. Think of the interesting types.
    Female—Heterosexual—type—

    I have only listed women because that is what we are talking about of course. I chose the most obvious types so. And may I add insult or pun intended. As each is successful and would be considered highly attractive to multitudes of men and women. But getting back to womens lib bascially I’m just an old fashioned girl.

    Maybe by the time my nails are a decent ladylike length I will be rehearsing for a play maybe the one Jeremiah and Burt are writing for me (if it’s any good) I like the title—“Camille’s Cough.” Do not know what is happening for Thanksgiving. It snowed so Warren and Mary Ann may not come down. I am going to call Senator Halpern tomorrow for my mother. I told my mother I want Diana (Burt’s sister) to come and live with us if I get a show. She can be my maid and companion. Please God if you hear me grant this wish. Jerry Bradley wants to help me with a nightclub act.
    Luciano says I can open in the back room of his bar.
    Jeremiah said Eileen thought I was so beautiful.
    Plant seeds and bulbs—tomatoe, tulips, iris. Speak to Jeremiah about play to show to R.L.
    It is now November 24 about 4:00 a.m. Today is my birthday I am happy. Ron Link called me and told me that Jackie did not show up at Ron Delsener’s office. I want to do “Glamour Glory & Gold” more than anything. I will have to wait around Max’s some night until Jackie comes in and bargain with it. My nails were completely bitten to the quick last night and I have promised myself that I will never pick or bite my nails again and from now on I will apply RRP nail conditioner every night. Tomorrow I will have to wax my arms. Jeremiah is such a dear he called and wants to have a party for me. I hope we are friends forever.
    I am not a genuine woman but I am not interested in genuineness. I’m interested in the product of being a woman and how qualified I am. The product of the system is what is important. If the product fails then the system is not good. What can I do to help me live in this life? I shouldn’t be disturbed all the time. The main thing is, will I benefit by it.
    I am watching the Newly wed game. I’m glad to see some people that are happy even though I can never be happy.
