She also brings up the thought that the people who are suing the Jaycees would probably be the same people who would support the women-only organizations. I would like to bring up a parallel here: The National Organiztion for Women (NOW) is often thought of as "The National Organization *of* Women". Actually, NOW accepts men as members. Perhaps these professional women's groups would accept men as members, too, with the *focus* remaining on the professional women. Mary Ann Zeszutko ihnp4!ihuxf!features
