If some of them were not Lesbians, then where did they find heterosexual mates? What sort of wimp would put up with this sort of rudeness in women? I am sorry to say that by 1970 there were plenty of wimps of every sort. I grew to think of these females as the “Lesbian Mafia.” I don’t know that all of them were homosexual (although I’m certain about some of them) but their behavior caused me to lump them all together.

These women (a minority but a ubiquitous, obnoxious one) treated traditional courtesy as if it were an insult. I mention this because, by the 1970s, there were many females who would snub a man unmercifully if he offered a gallantry, such as holding a chair for a woman, or offering to help her in or out of a car. Gentlemen enjoy offering little gallantries a lady enjoys accepting them graciously, with a smile and a word of thanks. “If a gentleman held a door for me, I would accept the courtesy and thank him.
