speaker Mrs Renate Krakauer told the group that assertiveness is an important life tool which gives an individual choice in how he or she handles situations they may find themselves in Mrs Krakauer is Director of Womens Programs and Af firmative Action at Humber College Toronto and former director of Humbers Centre for Women You havea lot more options available to you when you are assertive You have choice of how to react and this may in clude not being assertive its up to you Mrs Krakauer said It is good to be in group of people you know when first try ing to be assertive The feedback from those who know you can be most helpful Assertiveness is defined as saying and hopefully getting what you want without interfering with the rights of others The difference between assertive and aggressive is that one does not interfere with others There is no trampling or infringing on others she said Being assertive is often mistaken for being aggressive which is particular fear for women Krakauer said Women have been taught that aggression is dirty word She said being assertive will help an individual feel they have certain amount of control over their lives feeling of not be ing manipulated Being able to express emotions has traditionally been left up to the women with the strongsilent male still being the epitemy of society They say women dont have any problem expressing their emotions but which emotions are they talking about Women are taught to express gentle nuturing feelings and its OK if they say they are happy anxious or depressed but being angry is not acceptable ROLE PLAYING Laurie Jones Georgians Womens Advisor assisted Krakauer in three role playing skits demonstrating the non assertive or passive the assertive and the aggressive roles played by people The theme of skit was an aggressive boss who demanded that his secretary bring him coffee The group was shown that the secretary had several ways to react the most constructive being the assertive role The audience was asked to watch for clues such as voice tone and strength body position hostility and frustration The secretary who was passive was inwardly angry hostile and very little communication took place between her and her boss because she kept what she was feeling inside Being able to speak what is on ones mind without losing ones cool is one of the benefits of the art of assertiveness People who cant express themselves often take their frustrations out on people who have nothing to do with the way they are feeling such as marriage partners and children People arent generally aggressive or unassertive Its very important to be able to recognize situation which brings out either in yourself In being assertive physical posture facial expression and voice tone are important Ninetenths of how you say something shows your asser tiveness Try to stick to statements and stay away from You statements The latter just serves to make the other person angry defensive and less acceptable to your point She said always being nice and always smiling gives people wrinkles and told of an incident where an assertiveness instruc tor was demonstrating how to be assertive with waiter She spoke very well and handled the situation in an even ag gressive manner But she smiled through the whole thing and the waiter paid no attentionto her at all Sometimes when you smile and be polite people dont think you are serious FOGGING Mrs Krakauer said useful technique in being assertive is fogging and the broken record The fogging method is Yes understand your problem but nevertheless want this The broken record method is useful way of handling per son who is hard to persuade Just keep repeating what you are trying to point out until the other person gives in out of sheer frustration but strai Renate Krakauer Director of Womens Programs and Af firmative Action at llumher College spoke to noonhour gathering Tuesday at Georgian ollege on Assertiveness What is it Knowing how and when to be assertive can be valuable life tool one which can make difficult situations easier to handle she said Examiner Photo Assertiveness teaches you not to need to be manipulative ght Its an interaction between two equals She listed several books including Your Perfect Right by Dear No Smiles Im glad you chose me Its amazing how many people can give graciously but have no concept of how to receive Thanks for providing the perfect example Dear Ann Landers know you newspaper people usually stick together but would like to know if you Will venture an opinion on something find appalling If am overreacting please tell me newspaper publisher in Virginia has announced he is going to print the names ages and addresses of rape yictims in his paper He claims the custom of protecting the anonymity of rape victims does not serve the cause of jistice and that both the victim and the accused should be identified because anything less results in uneven coverage Where do you standModesto Bee Stinger Dear Stinger disagee with the publisher woman who has been raped suffers enough without having to carry the added stigma of publicity Its bad enough that those close to her know To have it announced in the press would be extremely humiliating And what for hope that publisher thinks it over and changes his mind Dear Ann Landers This is in response to Phoenix Phan who says that statistically Sioux Falls SD is the safest city to drive in Ill bet hes never been there have and can tell youa maniac lurks behind the wheel of every third car One reason for the problem is that South Dakota was the last state in the union to issue drivers licences All you had to do was pay $2 Driving tests have been in existence only in recent years Another reason is that 14yearolds can get permits to drive in South Dakota If Sioux Falls is the safest city to drive in as that statisti cian claims the good Lord surely has way of looking after old ladies and foolsand we have plenty of both
