520			_aWhenever we hear the words "women's liberation" some of us still cringe with fear of our teeth chatter in the disgust. We begin to think that those words will mean separating from the husbands (to those who are married), being disrespectful towards our fathers, walking around without bras (simply because some American media-men characterized women's liberation in their country as such) or simply expressing our sexual instincts, i.e., being able to respond freely to our biological needs with any macho that we meet. I believe that our own definition of women's liberation has been colored or distorted by the many varied articles and news we hear or read in local and western magazines. An offshoot of this is refusal on our part to contend with the genuine issues surrounding feminism or that movement which seeks to liberate women from social bondage. Thus our reaction has been in the forms of avoiding women who want to talk about or discuss feminism, or who practice feminist principles
