European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - December 20, 1991, Darmstadt, Hesse Friday december 20, 1991 Ann Landers i dear Ann Landers i done to understand the sexual harassment Issue. I am a male com Uter consultant and have worked or 20 different companies in my life. I be seen every kind of harassment possible. I myself have been fondled by two grossly overweight women and one Gay manag _ or. In be been physically pushed around by a few body builders who were preoccupied with showing everyone How Tough they were. I be heard women threatening men with physical violence and seen them do everything from slapping men in the face to kicking them where it counts. In be heard men say their female Bosses arc giving them nightmares. The office is a Jungle these Days and the bullies of both sexes Are always looking for someone to humiliate. Half the Bosses i be worked for Are mad with Power. It s usually the women who get first prize for the most vulgar language. Ask anyone who has worked in an office. If the feminists can to take the heat they should go Back to the Kitchen. I could go on and on but so could anyone else. Everybody learns sooner or later that they have to Deal with office harassers in their own Way and its a dirty Job. Going to the Boss is useless. Bosses Don t care. Going to court is Messy and expensive. The whole setup stinks but that a the Way it is and i see no Relief in sight. Do you no name on Long Island dear Long Island you done to seem to realize that the Laws on sexual harassment protect men As Well As women. No one of either sex should have to put up with that nonsense. If the Boss does no to care what a wrong with making your Case in court loud and Clear there Are no Good conduct medals lying around for those who allow dear Abby dear Abby i need to know How i can legally get rid of a military .45-caliber handgun that i have had since i was in the us. Army Back in 1943. It was issued to me prior to my being shipped overseas. When i was discharged the Parachute and most of the other equipment i had been issued was requisitioned Back by the military but no mention was Ever made of the gun or the 1 i clips of ammunition that i still possess. In All 6f this time i have never fired the gun i want to return the gun to the government but i Don t want to find myself in hot water for having possessed it All this time As a civilian. Since the gun is plainly marked . Property a i am wondering if my civilian Possession of it All these years May have somehow been illegal Ever since my discharge. A wondering in san Jose the stars and stripes today a crossword others to walk All Over them. Dear Ann Landers i m writing about the letter from a Nancy in unless you be walked in her shoes you can not possibly know what her life is like. Nancy poured out her heart describing her 26 years As a battered wife. Her letter tells women everywhere that marriage with your Quot dream Many can turn out to be a Nightmare. She also warns that if you know before you marry that your Boyfriend is a batterer you could wind up like her. The solution is to have alternatives. This Means you must be confident that you can support yourself if the Man you marry turns out to be abusive after too Many terrible years with an abusive husband i finally left him and raised three children alone one with Down s syndrome. I worked two and three jobs because All i had was a High school education. But our life was free of anxiety and fear a heaven compared to what it had been. My children Are grown now and doing Well. 1 am enrolled As a student at Sacramento state. My message to women everywhere is this there is a solution. Call the police and press charges. Look under a battered women in the phone Book. Call family service. Call your Clergyman. There is life after battering. Remember when you stand up for yourself and refuse to be knocked around something wonderful will happen in your life. Oakland Calif. Dear Oakland what an upbeat letter. Bless you for All the women you helped today. Gem of the Day those who Are so proud of keeping an orderly desk will never know the thrill of finding something they thought they had lost forever. C creators Syndicate dear wondering according to Sherry Lawrence an army spokeswoman from the personnel Comdr a Public affairs office the failure of the military to reclaim the weapon at the time of your discharge was probably the result of a paperwork slip up. Because the weapon is old and probably has not been maintained it May be a safety Hazard. Call your local police department and explain that you have a weapon from world War ii that needs to be safely disposed of. They will either advise you to bring it in or offer to pick it up. I advise you not to handle it a lock it up until you either deliver it to the local police or they pick it up. Peace of mind is Only a Telephone Call away.
