Letter to the Editor
Men beware

I am very disappointed in this newspaper for advertising the overtly sexist "Ladies Night Out" at Gatsby's, featuring the "All Male Dance Revue."

I deeply resent the portrayal of men as mere pieces of meat, mere objects of female animal lust. We men do have brains ya know!

Such a degrading, insulting display of the male body has no place in a community trying to come to grips with the problems of racism and sexism.

How can men walk safely through this town after all those sex-starved women drink an average of two pitchers of beer and spend hours in a room full of dancers clad in nothing more than tiny G-strings.

I hope that women at Penn State are intelligent enough and sufficiently aware of the concerns and fears of us men to avoid this callous display of meat, despite your malicious promotion of the event.
