To Whom it May Concern,

Make a difference! The International Gay
and Lesbian Human Rights Commission
(IGLHRC) Pen-Pal Project is looking for
men and women interested in cor-
responding with gays and lesbians in
Eastern Europe and the former Soviet
Union. Make gay and lesbian friends in
foreign lands, check out other peoples
and cultures, and help build rainbow
bridges of solidarity. Let’s piece together
a quilt of pink veils on the rubble of the
Iron Curtain. To join us, send a brief
descrpition of yourself and who you
would like as a pen-pal to:

Dear Editor,

I am responding to Paul Olsen’s Outing in
the Mountains. “Ethically”, “outists” jus-
tify their actions by arguing that the ex-
posure of fraud outweighs the potential
harm to the indvidual.

What presumption! How a lesbian, gay, or
bisexual wishes to struggle with their sex-
uality is a totally personal matter. To bully

a person into coming out is like pushing
someone off a diving board when it is
known they can’t swim.

Sexuality is a deep and delicate matter, to
be treated with gentleness.

Sincerely,

Ann Stokea

To the Editor,

For some time I have been interested in
establishing a Vermont chapter of the
NEA Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual Caucus. Sev-
eral of you share that interest. I would
like to meet briefly with interested par-
ties, following the May I equity work-
shop at the Comfort Inn in Barre to dis-
cuss formation of such a chapter. I will
have NEA bi-laws, guidelines, and mem-
bership forms available. If you can not at-
tend the May lst meeting, feel free to call
me at 436-2038.

Sincerely,

Barbara Barbour
