THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS Liz Reid speaks out I happen to think that’s a bit crude and extraordinarily naive. But we have to be very, very careful. A lot o f the reforms that are coming up will just effectively bolster the existing political and social situation. They wont better womens position or society in the long run. DAYLIGHTS: What about men? Where do they fit into this? LR: My feeling is that men are very often dehumanised in our society by the f m m t way they’re brought up - so that the positive attributes that women have, like warmth and tenderness and thought­ fulness and perceptiveness, are knocked out of them. Then on top of that, they are forced in the breadwinner role to go in for a lifestyle that is often destructive o f the individual. So they’re doubly harmed by society. Women will never ever be able to bring about changes in men — men have to bring about these changes, then they will be able to take part in our utopia. DAYLIG H TS: Is Whitlam easy to work for?
