Dear Abby: I couldn't believe your response to "Stumped and Trumped in Ohio" (May 12). You made a point of saying to the father that his daughter and her boyfriend are in HIS house and they should abide by HIS rules and sleep in separate bedrooms. It's his wife's house, too, and she thought it was fine for them to share a room. Since when should the man's opinion automatically trump the woman's?
This is something the husband and wife should have worked out together before "Julie" brought her boyfriend home for a visit. But in saying it's the man's house and everyone should abide by the man's rules, you insulted women everywhere.

Democrats are trying to stifle election-year debate in the General Assembly over a constitutional amendment defining marriage as only between a man and a woman, Republicans charge.
In a party line vote, the House Thursday approved a change to parliamentary rules so constitutional amendments can't be tacked onto bills. Yesterday, however, a Baltimore Circuit Court judge ruled the state's law prohibiting same-sex marriage couldn't withstand a constitutional challenge.

With the arrival of the New Right as a powerful political movement, boosted by the ideologically compatible Reagan Administration, "pro-family" programs promoted an even more punitive attitude toward AFDC recipients. The Reagan Administration demonized welfare recipients by promoting the racist stereotype of the "welfare queen" - constructed as a Black woman who cons the system out of tens of thousands of dollars while the (White) taxpayer must work hard for his or her money. This spin was remarkably successful with many voters, who returned Reagan to office in 1984, approving his stereotype of welfare recipients as unworthy and pathologically dependent. Describing this period, Michael B. Katz says: "What bothered observers most was not their (the poor's) suffering; rather, it was their...
