Fred (not his real name) was a student of the same age group as the rest of us and not too much different from us, except he had some conservative political views.

Male Without Female In the classic films of the 1940s and 1950s, filmmakers tended to use very strict representations of gender in their characters. Women could be either virgins or tramps and men could be either heroes or villains. There was very little transgression of the stereotypical boundaries of character.
