A rebuttal to the "A Rebuttal" Letter to the editor (11/19/75) by an anonymous author. This letter takes that author to task for his "ostensibly misogynistic" letter.

This letter to the editor is in response to letters by Allard and Newton in the previous issue. Allard and Newton reacted to Walsh's column on October 26, 1977.
