SPECIAL Tr feminine surge toward ‘experience’ There was a headline in one of the daily papers the other day which announced “Male role in workforce de clining.” On reading it, my thoughts went first to the three young women on the Rotaty Zuckerberg Island Park project team. Each day Shirley, Tracy and Teresa are out with their sole male worker, David, the herbicide expert, cutting out dead trees with a chain saw and swinging a pick with the best of them. I then thought back a little further to two interviews I had earlier this year with two other young women w are only a few years older and on whom I had intended to do separate columns since they too were outstanding examples of that new feminine surge, imaginative and enthusiastic, toward the arch of experience. They are Lynn Smecher and Joanne Pepper. As some readers will recall, I have already done a couple of columns on Lynn's pioneering in pursuit of a career as a fashion designer, while Joanne was the subject of a CasNews story in 1982 when she was awarded a Rotary International scholarship for a year's study in Britain towards a PhD degree in anthropology and history, with particular reference to the development of the role played by Latin American women in relation to religion. Not many years ago, all of these activities together with many others such as careers in the armed forees and competition at all levels in the Olympics — would have been unheard of, at least on this side of the Atlantic. Now, I stand on the sidelines and applaud, not because I am a supporter or opponent of the women’s i (though I suspect that equality between the sexes has about as much validity as Swift's satirical story on the equality of the two ends of an egg). Furthermore, I often feel that the movement itself has too many built-in strictures to ensure true liberation. On the other hand, I believe passionately in the right to equal opportunity for every person, without fear or favor. This conviction is stated in its most succinct form in the very wise old Spanish proverb: “And God said, ‘Take what you wish — and pay for it” ” Thus, despite the fact that my notes are as cold as last week's porridge, I would like to consider Lynn and Joanne as an excellent examples of the new young women who have accepted the proverb and grown with the experience. I will start with Lynn. Lynn graduated from Stanley Humphries High School some three years ago and setting aside plans for a medical career, decided to take the slightly more uncer- tain career of fashion design and merchandising. “Giving up dressings for dresses,” as she phrased it. She worked in the Bank of Montreal for a year, then enrolled in an intensive one-year fashion design school in Dallas, Texas. Here she worked for a famous designer and at the end of the course toured the fashion centres of Rome, Paris and London, revelling as she did so in the brief contacts with new cultures and the deep, pervasive sense of history Meanwhile, besides her classroom experience in Dallas, she obtained new perspectives approaching the slightly zany and exotic world of high fashion and the less exotic facts of entrenehed racial discrimination ina culture in which virtually no one walks and everyone owns a car. After about a year and a half she came back — “I Canada.” She started sending out a barrage of 60 to 75 letters to fashion houses across the country and got an offer from Baraketts, a family-operated business in Montreal specializing in sports clothes (“Houghton”) and the “Missy” line. Lynn's job was cost-analysis of new designs. (It doesn’t mean anything to me either.) “It wasn't a 9 to 5 job,” she said; “I worked as long as 1 thked and the work had to be done. Anyway, | learned something every day. I slvo learned that there were a lot of things I didn’t even know that I didn't even know,” One of the things that she learned was that the degree of loneliness is not an inverse ratio of the number of people about one, even when they speak (appros- imately) the same language. Dallas, for example, hed » high density population of both people and machines and ‘was still a very lonely place. Montreal, on the other hand. alk. : a “Montreal has 2 European city fee! about it,” .ehe } said. “Tt te old and establighed with lots of Hitle shops quiet side streets —. wonderful place to go walking and shopping.” x | Everywhere she went, she said, everything was French —sign boards, streets and people, but she tried |B, her best in her high school French and they helped out in English. ms “They are really nice people — kind and friendly and helpful and I have never felt lonely here in Montreal.” More recently, the bottom dropped out of her Baraketts job, but she went out, bought an armload of papers, studied the job ads and in two days was beck at work again. 4 It is amazing what a young woman ean do if she. approaches the arch of experience with an open mind, willingness to learn and a considerable courage and spirit of adventure, meeting each day and new people half way and a little more. 5 > Joanne, who is also a SHSS grad, is more of an introvert and scholar, but she, too, has this essential spirit of the modera young woman. Scholarships from the Steelworkers union and the Royal Canadian Legion took her down entirely different paths — studies in theology, sociology, history and anthropology through the Western Bible College at Abbotsford, the Uni of h California and the Fuller Theological Seminary in Pas adena, California. It was here, in this melting pot of races, that she first experienced “culture shock.” She experienced it again in East Africa where cultural differences are even more marked. For example, no respectable women would be seen wearing slacks — the mark of a prostitute — and no one at all smokes. On her return to Castlegar after four years’ absence, however, she experienced reverse culture shock — an interesting experience for an anthropologist. There were compegsations though. On returning home she looked at the Kootenays through new eyes and saw it “as a most beautiful place.” Her third culture sliock came when a Rotary Inter- national scholarship took her to England to the University of Warwick, near the small city of Coventry — the home of the beautiful new Coventry Cathedral, the magnificent Warwick castle and once the home of Lady Godiva who rede naked through the streets of the city (an incredibly brave act in those days) as a protest against her husband’s tyrannical treatment of the people; and last, but not least, the manufacturing centre for famed Royal Doulton china. Here, with side trips to Oxford and Cambridge universities, Joanne began the first year of her PhD studies. There were hundreds of students from all over the world at the universities, 100 Americans and two Can- adians at Warwick, “a whole mish-mash of cultures,” she said. And competition was keen. Despite certain apparent informalities — the university had hundreds of bicycles, all black, which the students used, quite casually like rent-a-cars (without the rent) to get to and from the university leaving them at the point of arrival — other matters were very “correct,” and one was expected, to know, for example, which of the items in the serried ranks of assorted flatware on the dinner table one used with a particular course, while sitting in a dining room where “history fairly oozed out of the walls.” But, she said, her hosts were wonderfully kind and helpful. As an exchange student Joanne was also expected to peak to various Rotary and student groups. “I loved particularly to tell them of our river and how it was intertwined in the history and life of our valley,” she said. “It made me so proud to be a Canadian.” l asked both young women at the end of our inter view what was their prescription for the full life as they had experienced it. Joanne — who is back in Canada teaching — said: “People can be so wonderful and giving — if you let them. You can learn so much if you approach life and people of other cultures as a student and not as a teacher.” Said Lynn: “Like your work and be prepared to work very hard or get out — no one is going to start you at the And 80, it seems, the young women's movement has d some old fashioned i Invest some trust in the basic decency of most men and women; cul- tivate a spirit of adventure and vision which negates the current defeatism of the nay-sayers; make each day a part of one’s life and experience and be prepared to tie it all together with hard work.
