| − | Most [[apas]] allow married couples to share a single membership: One set of dues and one [[mailing]] is all they pay and get, respectively, but if both maintain full regular activity requirements, they usually each get to vote in the [[egoboo poll]] (if any) and in the election of officers. Some of the social changes that are generally associated with the 1960s actually got started in the late 1950s–and [[Charles Burbee]], who was then an official of [[FAPA]], addressed one of them by pointing out that some [[fan]] couples were choosing to live together and try things out for a while rather than getting married only to discover that they were really incompatible. Not to put too fine a point on it, [[Burbee]] said, they were "shacking up." [[Burbee]] ruled that these couples could have a dual membership in [[FAPA]], just like a married couple, provided only that they met "shacktivity requirements," i.e., proved to him that they did the same things together that married couples do.
