European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - January 06, 1991, Darmstadt, Hesse                                / o sunday january 6, 1991 the stars and stripes a Pago 11 a a. J i i a dear Ann Landers my husbands a wonderful Man but he is very insensitive when it comes to being affectionate or sexual whenever he wants to a have a Date a As he Calls it he insists that i Wear a White full slip. At first he said that was what his Mother wore around the House. When i told him i did no to want him to think of me As his Mother he changed his Story and said it was what Liz Taylor wore in a cat on a hot tin   mind dressing up special now and then or even often but he insists on it every time. I never wore a full slip before i met him and i done to like . It looks or Becky once i put on a peach camisole and a half slip that i Felt pretty in but he said it did no to turn him on. He insisted i put on that White slip so i did and Felt like a prostitute. We be been married eight years and have two children. Its gotten to the Point that i am getting very turned off because he is insensitive and demanding and my needs Are never met. He thinks there is nothing wrong with his a fetish a As he Calls it and that i should not be so stubborn. I have tried to talk with him several times about my feelings Blit it does no to seem to make a Nickels Worth of difference. He is 49 and i am 33. What advice do you have for me �?d.h., Houston Texas dear Houston if it were just the slip id say a go along with it Honey. Its nothing compared to what some men want in order to get turned  but there a a whole other Issue Here. The key words Are a a he a insensitive and demanding and my needs Are never  this is a lot More serious than the Doggone slip. You two need joint counselling. Its going to take a trained therapist to Cement the cracks in your marriage and the sooner you go for help the better your chances. Dear Ann Landers since the savings and loan disaster we seem to have lost our perspective about Money. People toss around the word a a billion with such reckless abandon that in a sure they have no idea what a billion is. I confess that i. Had no real understanding of the word until i read this explanation that appeared in a very old copy of readers digest. It was written by Lou Erickson. Ill bet if you print it a lot of eyes will pop How about it Ann . In Denver Dollar signs. A it is difficult to comprehend what $1 billion could be but at last i have heard an explanation that clears a the air. A a Man gave his wife $1 million. He told her to go out a and spend $1,000 a Day. She did. Three years later she returned to Tell him that the Money was All gone. She wanted  the then gave her $1 billion. He told her to go out and spend $1,000 a Day. She did no to come Back for 3,000 a years.�?�,a a a. A a a a a a a a a dear Denver thanks for the economics lesson. And talking about a the real world a Here a another Jolt. That savings and loan debacle Cost $500 billion. And do you know who a going to pay for it you and i a the working stiffs. Too bad the members of Congress who set up the Laws that made this Gigantic rip off possible can to be sent someplace for 3,000 years. A. C creators Syndicate a censorship gone too far writer says include me on the list of those who Are less than wildly enthusiastic about the military a Diligence in championing saudi arabian religious sensibilities through sanctions and censorship on . Military personnel. A for example a recent article in the stars and stripes praised . Military schoolchildren in Germany engaged in a project to Cut out offensive segments from magazines being sent to gis in saudi a things like such monstrous obscenities As pictures of women a shoulders or anything suggesting that christianity and Judaism Are anything More than Gutter religions. In a proud of the kids for trying to do their part but in a afraid the article left me with a bitter aftertaste. Teaching schoolkids How to censor expression and speech is not on the top of my american educational Agenda. A /. A a. A a a a a a a a. A i was similarly disturbed by another recent piece detailing the . Military enforcement of islamic Law by cracking Down on All forms of alcohol consumption among gis in saudi. Lam deeply disturbed that schoolchildren and military authorities Are now acting As the islamic thought police. Yes i am Well aware that the troops there Are a a guests and that they must obey Host nation Laws and not offend their hosts sensibilities or religious beliefs. Yet i wish that the obligatory Public posturing be tempered with some behind the scenes realism. For example John j. Pershing commanding the american expeditionary Force in the first world War delighted the Little old ladies in Peoria by thundering eloquently against brothels and swearing to obliterate All French prostitutes within a Hundred Miles of the nearest doughboy. Then he turned around and began issuing the troops As Many prophylactics As bullets. Military regulations notwithstanding licit and illicit alcohol was a daily fact of life in All the Heaters and in All the services during the second world War. And had Eisenhower and Macarthur been As diligent in cracking Down on i use of alcohol As . Authorities Are in saudi wed All be speaking German and japanese today a and not by Choice. In Vietnam american authorities commiserated publicly with vietnamese officials who complained that i Money and lust was turning their women into prostitutes. These same american authorities then turned around and discreetly supported selected brothels with medical inspections Security military Telephone lines and in at least one Case paying tax Esho the Viet cd Ong not to attack the place. I do not suggest flouting saudi or islamic Law but i do wish that the military place limits on How zealously it enforces those Laws. W hat you Tell the Little old ladies in Peoria and to Lac Sheik of Araby Are one thing. What you. Do to take care of Young red blooded amen can troops is another. Lots pay saudi values and customs their just due and let us not visibly offend them. Yet we have values and customs too. If the saudis want to throw us out because some Playboy magazines and a few bottles of Beer find their Way into . Camps then let them live under Saddam Hussein and see How they like that. And if you want to talk about religious beliefs Well in be got a few of my own and one of them is that american infantrymen a. Used to be one myself. A have a god Given right to unlimited quantities of Loos women dirty magazines and cheap booze and by god fetch you Granddaddy another Glass of Bourbon son he a getting excited any system that feels otherwise is not Worth fighting for. A Michael Cor uni Wiesbaden Germany a Reader tells of Ems i recently heard an advertisement on an for medical services which Are uttered at the exceptional family member service.
