You decide. ![]() Sex and The Single Girl: Before There Was Sex in the City, There Was (Cult Classics) $12.00 I read this book when I was 15 years old. I think one must read this book in the context of the social atmosphere of the 1960s. Consider first, what it meant to be a single woman before feminism really took off in the United States. Most of her advice is very sound: Educate yourself, dress well for your budget, personalize your look, maintain your hair and make-up, read and feel free to experience life. Some of her advice, I think, is borderline-psychotic. In this book, Helen Gurley Brown encourages the single woman to "lift" things like lipstick and nailpolish from the dime store. She also stands by "The wine diet"...basically telling girls to drink wine instead of eating, to maintain a lithe figure. This, in my opinion, is insane. She also advises using dry shampoo. But, remember, this was back in a time where women didn't wash their own hair. They would go to the beauty salon once a week for a "wash & set" to lacquer their hair into unmovable shape. While reading this book, keep in mind that feminism really hadn't swept the country, and affairs between executives and their office assistants was expected...regardless of marital status. I don't think "Sexual Harrasment" became a public issue until after this book was published. Read this book with a grain of salt. Even though a good chunk of her advice is out-of-date, some of it is sound and rational. It's a great snap-shot of the 1960s pre-feminist mindset. |
