Dear Ann Landers,
lease print this letter for every boy between 15 and 17 years of age who reads your column. I am a girl of 15. All these boys think about is sex and who they can get it from. If a girl says no, she is shunned and made fun of. The boy will never look at her again. He tells all his pals she is a "dead number," and they give her the get-lost treatment. In other words she is a social outcast, doomed to sit home until she becomes more "cooperative" and loosens up. This happened to me and two of my girl friends. Why don't these immature and selfish boys realize they are being unfair? If they are all so fond of mar-rying virgins, why don't they leave a few around? A HOLDOUT

DEAR H.O.,
Sorry, I don't agree that all boys between 15 and 17 shim and ridicule girls who say no. In fact, the opposite is closer to the truth. It's the put-outs, not the hold-outs, who are shunned and ridiculed. (You ought to read my mail, dear.) THE ANN LANDERS ENCYCLOPEDIA 1099 Shoplifting SWEATING OVER A SWEATER

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
