Ann Landers dear Ann Landers i am thoroughly disgusted with the sexual hypocrisy in this country. It seems that everywhere i turn i see some Magazine newspaper or to reference to a sex crazed teenage ill bet a lot of this fuss was generated by your column. Ever since i can remember it has been an open secret that teenage boys Are expected to be sexually Active. Can it be people Arentt aware that teen age girls have raging hormones As Well believe me i am not promoting sexual activity among the Young but this double Standard makes my blood boil. What can be done to change this ridiculously unfair sexist Way of thinking disgusted 18-year-old in Conn. Dear Conn deeply ingrained concepts die hard. The kind of thinking Yon describe has been a part of our culture for hundreds of years. My guess is that the Equality Between the sexes that you would like to see will probably take shape in about two decades a not soon enough for you to enjoy but your daughters will. Dear Ann Landers Are pet pythons sanitary i need to know because id like to keep my pet pythons in my College dorm room. I asked the president of the College and he said it was Fine with him but he needed to Check with the health department. Later i was told that it would not be possible. I done to understand this. Students Are allowed to have fish in their rooms. It seems to me that snakes Are less trouble than fish and More sanitary. Isnit a dry terrarium safer than a tank full of water the Only questionable aspect to keeping a Snake is the feeding process. I did not invent this plan. God did. Snakes eat Only once a week. Everyone knows that an animal that eats Only once a week eliminates once a week too. Id like to have my a a babies at school with me so will you please investigate the sanitary aspects of keeping a Snake in my room thanks Ann. Snake owner in Calhoun a. Dear Calhoun according to or. Lester Fisher director of the Lincoln Park zoo in Chicago pythons Are constrictors so they Are not poisonous. Snakes Are no less sanitary than dogs cats parakeets or Ash. If a Small Python under 5 feet to Well cared for and properly bandied by someone who understands snakes it should be both Safe and sanitary. A Python larger than 5 feet however is potentially dangerous especially if handled without proper precautions. Many people however Are frightened by snakes and this is probably the real reason you were not granted permission to keep one in the dorm. I agree with or. Fisher and if your pet Python Ever got Loose it could scare the living daylights out of some of your dorm mates. My advice is Settle for goldfish. C creators Syndicate dear Abby i am the Mother of Larry Kenneth Wooten the 21-year-old College student who collapsed and died after drinking 23 shots of liquor one after the other. He did it on a dare while he was at a bar with some of his friends. We done to blame his friends a they were As ignorant As Larry about what could happen from drinking that much liquor in so Short a time. Also the bartender where those College kids were drinking should have known better. He did Cut Larry off after he had had 12 drinks then proceeded to serve him 11 More. Abby Florida has no Laws requiring bartenders to Cut off serving customers who have had too much. We Are working on getting the Laws changed. It wont be easy.
