At the beginning of this month, five ladies of the third floor
volunteered to appear as a panel of ladies for a program that involved
male residents having free range to anonymously ask questions about
what women think. The ladies were not given the questions in advance,
and it was entirely a gamble what would be asked of them. None of the
ladies backed down from the challenge and for nearly two hours
honestly and tactfully answered questions that ranged in topic
from "how to dance" to relationship definition to sex. If this were
not already enough to ask of them, when the ladies showed up at the
program venue and saw low initial turn out, they offered to go door to
door in the residential building to invite residents to come, which
singlehandedly contributed to the successful turnout the program
experienced. Word Count: 142
