Book Overview

ALL NEW EDITION With an index, clarifications, and corrections! Sequel to the Bestseller that Birthed an International Women's Movement! Over 50 years after the original book, the sequel to Helen Andelin's Fascinating Womanhood is here. Originally published in 1963, Fascinating Womanhood sold over 5 million copies globally and was translated into 7 languages. As controversial as it was popular, the book also spawned a grassroots movement of classes where women could learn more about feminine influence in relationships and the home-classes that continue to this day in countries all over the world. Towards a New, Enlightened Femininity. The sequel Fascinating Womanhood for the Timeless Woman sees Andelin's daughter, Dixie Andelin Forsyth, pick up her mother's mantle with the aim of 'awakening an enlightened form of femininity in women, in order to inspire a noble masculinity in men and create a lifelong romance.' With teachings that lean strongly on relationship roles-focusing on division of labor between task and relationship leaders-Fascinating Womanhood has also been called "the book feminists love to hate" and there's no doubt that its sequel is set to raise eyebrows, particularly at a time when gender norms and roles are a hot topic. More important now than ever! While some may wonder whether these teachings have relevance within the context of a modern world, Dixie believes they have never been more important. "Fascinating Womanhood for the Timeless Woman holds the position that most cultures have lost the sense of ascendency that comes from proper cultivation of femininity and masculinity in women and men, respectively.

Not as good as the original but not to bad

I am kinda old fashioned and remember reading the book Fascinating Womanhood growing up. It is GOLD! I had a precious copy but wanted to do a study on the book with a couple girl friends. That led me to this updated version written by the daughter of my beloved author. I thought I would give it a try. It was pretty good and if you are not the type to relish reading a worn musty smelling copy that is written in a little more good ol' days style then this book will probably be just what you are looking for for THE SECRETS to a successful and ' perfect' marriage.
