acceptance"It is healthy and natural for all persons, men and women, to live directly in both the instrumental and the affective worlds. The best example we can give to explain what we are talking about is to quote the man who said, 'My boss is the best boss I've ever had. When you go in there and she criticizes your work she makes sure you leave feeling you are a good and valuable person who wrote a bad report.'" humannessIt is healthy, creative and productive for men and women to express feelings as well as ideas and to use instinct as well as logic. When we consider the desirability of acknowledging the feelings of bitterness, anger, and hostility in a generation of men that has been asked to absorb hundreds of years of social injustice we must be encouraged to believe that if the feelings of these men could begin to be acknowledged perhaps then it will not take so much convincing and challenging to convince them of the need to work as hard as they can to ensure the inclusion of people who will insist that the world of work be more humane."
