You kids stay off my lawn!
Help... can you believe it? A man asking for directions...
I'm working on a novel about life at OSU circa 1961 - 1972 and I need help in constructing dorm/rooming/sorority house/apartment conversation.

I know with 95% accuracy what the guys talked about, especially sports, current events and the opposite sex, but I know squat about the female conversations. (alright, I wasn't paying attention. Give me a break, I was (and remain) a guy). If you'd be willing to discuss the issue via internet I'd be eternally grateful.

I'd be glad to share with you all aspects of the novel as it currently stands and promise you your name will not appear in the work, but certainly in the foreward and credits.

If you're a) not of the era, but would be willing to help me with dialogue from your era that would be a help... amazingly these kinds of things don't change much over the years... b) not of the female persuasion, but know a girlfriend/wife/sister/brief acquaitance who might be able to speak the lingo. please PM me and give me the direction I need.

Thanks, Cincibick

I could offer advice on what women in the military stuck in barracks together talk about but I have a feeling it would be somewhat different than what college students discuss. I highly doubt women in college dorm rooms had to share showers at the same time, or had to road march 12 + miles in full battle rattle, or worry about how many targets they can hit at the shooting range.

:biggrin:

Umm.. according to movies (which are, of course, 100% accurate), women usually talk about guys and then they strip down to their underwear to have a pillow fight.

Because I've never caught any women doing this (and I've never heard any guy say he has witnessed this act), I've come to believe in the theory that women have some sort of "guy detector." When guys are near, they put their clothes on and pretend to not like checking out other women.

I've also come to believe in the sub-theory that they also have a "Zurp detector." Whenever I'm around, the women get increasingly bored, and have the overwhelming desire to walk the 500 miles home.
