Instructions For Females On Courtship And Matrimony, With Tips To Discourage Sexual Advances From Husbands
These Victorian pearls of wisdom for women on courtship and marriage, immoral conduct, what to look for in a spouse, and how to approach, or avoid, sexual relations with the husband, are often hilarious.
The more red-faced and bearded or impulsive a man, the more dark, calm, cool and quiet should his wife be; and vice versa. Those very fleshy should not marry those equally so, but those spare and slim. A spare man is much better adapted to a fleshy woman than a round-favored man. Two very beautiful persons rarely do or should marry; nor two extra homely. Learn all this and much, much more in Marriage and Love, a gem of Victorian wisdom on courtship and marriage, immoral conduct, and what to look for in a spouse.
