JMB: Oh sure, all the time. You
know, a kg here, a nose there, I seem
to always be running over somebody's
body part — that causes quite a few
near misses, you know. But. like 1
said. I'm the king of the campus
crosswalks. I have expert balance
upon my machine. l
JW: Tell me a ttme you have been
scared while ndlng.
JMB: No time.
JW: C'mon. no lies. This is a family
publication.

' great reflexes. I mean, shoot, she
almost put a scratch on my bike.
JW: Nice story. Hey. I think that's
the Country Store right over there.
It's.hard to tell, though, you're still
going way too fast Jr
JMB: Wellr-ehootl-- Stop your
whining. Here. I'll slam on my brakes
JW: No. not the one on the left hand
side! That's the front-wheel brake!
Heeeeeeeelpl
JMB: You OK?
JW: WelL nothing broken — except
for my tape recorder. For some
reason I don't think I'll forget any of
what you've said, though. One final
JMB: °Jk ''J*"1 la*1 week ' "** question, why are you always In a
sweating bullets for a second - but hurry?
Just a second. You see. like many of
my mountain biker friends. I hate
waiting around. I was at the
Intersection of Bulldog Lane and
Cedar Avenue. You know. It's the light
right next to the tennis courts.
JW: Yes. Goon.
JMB: Well, so there 1 was. wasting
precious time at a stupid light So I
ran it. Silly me. I didn't check for the
oncoming traffic. That, could be
hazardous someUmes. Fortunately
JMB: Gotta get to class, you know.
Those teachers are ruthless
someUmes.
After I cleaned the knats out of my
teeth. I headed over to The Dally
Collegian office to write this article. I
piirpously wrote my story on one of
the computer terminals away from
the windows. You Just never know
when one of these mountain bikers
arc going to come crashing through.

unwanted child." These comments 1
challenge.
(By the way. In the course of your
letter, you admit that fetuses are
children. You've got to parrot more
carefully the feminist slogans of the
day! You aspire to real feminism.
Carrie. So remember, unborn
children are "unviable cell masses" —
as a national talk show host reminds
us i not children.')
Avtva understands that one cannot
consistently oppose and tolerate
something. Your position. Carrie, is
inconsistent
If you were to say. "Well. I think
embezzlement Is wrong for me, but I
don't think I should tell others
whether or not they should commit
that act.'1 you would be laughed at. You
could argue that you were stealing
from a big company, and (hat while
your life would be greatly Improved,
no one else's life would be measurably
affected — the same sort of rattletrap
we hear from feminist quarters
regarding abortion.
The falsity of the arguments for
abortion become clear, a little at a
lime. From underneath the dog pile of
feminist orthodoxy emerges heresy:
Maybe there is a right and a wrong,
not Just a "convenient" and
"inconvenient" Maybe my rights over
my body are not limitless. Maybe the
philosopher was onto something
when he said. "My right to swing my
fist stops at the next person's nose."
Now. youVe got my curiosity up. I
wonder if you are the kind of liberal
that believes we working folk are
-morally bound to take care of the less

fortunate In our society. For to be that
kind of liberal Is to admit we do have
obligations to others. You're willing
to soak the rich and the middle class
to Improve the lot of the poor.
That is. you're willing to take their
money. I.e.. make them pay taxes. I.e..
circumscribe their behavior. Now
Carrie. If we can force the employed to
stave off the starvation of
unemployed adults, why on earth can
we not tell a woman not to scrape her
"unwanted child" from the walls of
her uterus?
After all. 'who is more helpless?
The unemployed or the unborn? If you
are going to be a consistent- feminist
admit your extreme selfishness.
Answer to no one. Make no sacrifices
to others. Consider only yourself.

You claim further that pro-lifers
want to tell a woman what to do with
her body. Wrong. Pro-lifers don't grve
a hoot how you dress, what you eat.
whether you exercise, how fat or
skinny you become, whether to have
your breasts enlarged or reduced,
whether to fix your nose, pierce your
ears, sleep standing up or sleep at all.
These are all things you do with your
female body, and they don't care one
lick about them. Pro-lifers want only
to tell you what to do with the fetus'
body LET IT LIVE.
In a variety of ways, you attack
Avtva for protecting the sanctity of
the fetus, and In doing so, claim she
isn't a true feminist. You are correct
Modem feminism wants Gynarchy
[rule by women], not equality. Avtva
