the suspicion was conjured up
by Greta's readiness to see the

What's Wrong with us2
Gay, BEA AND BELLE"
Yes land men need yOu to
complete their lives. But what
are you offering that viii make
any man think you're the an
swer to q bachelors prayer?
I'm asking that seriously, be-
cause it really strikes at the
root of your problem. Like
most girls, you think that If
you're pretty and well-dreSsed
and willing to be amused, men
should break their necks try
ing to grab you off. You're
wrong. When q man becomes
interested in a woman, he seeks
an answer to his own personal
problem. He calls it love-
but his real reason for chooS-
ing that particular woman is
some hunger or SUn1e dream
within himSelf-and he thinks
she is the answer. She may
not seem an answer" to any
one else. She z may seem Q
perfect washout. But the man
sees in her that which he
wants to see, and she gives
him something which no other
woman can give.
The woman who attracts has
something to give. She Soothes
or she tantalizeS or she rests
or she inspires or she's Just
an understanding pal-but what
ever her gift, she seems like
an answer to her particular
man. And even though she be
homely andS dowdily dressed,
that man will seek her out.
But other women, who may
be much prettier. much better
dressed, mean nothing ct all
to any man, for they offer
nothing. They are tangled up
with their own selveS--So
prickly with their own prob
lemS-So limp with their own
frustrationS-that they uncon-
Sciously repel men. They need
the man, but they can't make
him need them. For he feels
that they have nothing to give
him . no stimplation no
enlargement of his own life.
