FW 6.4 Becky Sharp: A Fascinating Womanhood IMPOSTER

Image
 Hello, Beautiful Homemakers!   I begin this video with what I forgot to say in the last video, but remembered to put in my last blog post.  Here it is again, since that was several weeks ago! At the Dance:  Why do men prefer women in dainty, fragile, soft, and delicate gowns versus short, black, body-hugging dresses?  Because the fabric conveys the qualities of the wearer herself. (Remember how we have discussed how your clothes 'say it for you'?)  Men want dainty, fragile, soft, delicate women for wives.  If you must wear black, don't imitate a street walker. Wear soft velvet, or dainty tulle or chiffon, or have lots of delicate lace covering your back and arms.  Don't show too much cleavage!  Don't let your skirt be too short.  If your dress dips down showing some cleavage, then your skirt needs to be longer.  If your skirt is above your knees, then your decolletage needs to be covered.      [Also, a...

50th Wedding Anniversary Tribute

Image
   Ten years ago my parents celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. We had a party and my brother and I shared a few memories of growing up. Here are mine: I am so thankful for my parents. Many people have asked, “Do you really know how lucky you are to have them for your parents?” And believe me, I do know. For one thing, we all actually liked it when my dad came home! Some friends would think they’d have to leave, or even hide, but I knew that if we had made a fort that day out of chairs and blankets, my dad would go through it! If we played with cars and made block towns, it would stay up for my dad to admire. We were excited when he came home! We also loved rainy days at our house. Not just because of the rain, but because we knew that when we got home from school, fresh hot chocolate chip cookies would be coming out of the oven. We’d run home! Even my dad didn’t mind the traffi...

FW 6.3 A Beauty in Distress - Fascinating Femininity

Image
 Hello, Beautiful Homemakers! In today's video we cover a lot of ground in Pamphlet 6 of the original 1922 Fascinating Womanhood pamphlets. We discuss: Gaining Immediate Notice, if circumstances allow: "You are the helpless beauty in distress again, and the man feels challenged to prove his superiority by finding a way to show you that exhibit."   A Stroll Through the Park, with the most important sentence being: "Every time one of them takes your hand to help your tenderness over this, that, or the other obstacle, he feels the contrast between your womanliness and his manhood - a good feeling for him to have, and a feeling that is a genuine pleasure to him."   Making the most of a picnic:  "The modest little thing naturally became even more frightened at such a proposal; she blushed, became confused, and finally became so daintily reproachful that the man was enchanted.  And when he finally persuaded her to place her confiding, trusting hand in his, and th...

FW 6.2 The Manners that Focus Attention

Image
Hello, Beautiful Homemakers! The first subsection of Pamphlet 6 that we are covering today is Stratagems that Win the Notice of Men .  They ask you to review chapter 8, exercises 1-6, 9-11, 13, and 14.  This is found in Pamphlet 4.  (See video and information at the end of this post.) The most important sentences in this section is:  "Nothing you may do to attract attention will be of much avail if there is, either in your manner, your voice, or your apparel, the suggestion of strength, manliness, efficiency, ability, or severity. The woman who is obviously able to kill her own snakes simply cannot attract favorable attention from men, no matter what arts and devices she employs..." This man discusses why ultra-feminine women are so desirable to men, and I highly suggest that you watch it: The next subsection is called The Manners that Focus Attention .  This section has several examples that I disagree with.  I tell you what the book says, and why I think...

FW 6.1 Squashing Your Inner Superior Wife + How to Play "the Game" that Fascinates Men

Image
Hello, Beautiful Homemakers!     I begin today's video with a partial comment from Aurora, with her permission.  It can be found in its entirety under the video FW3.4 "Why Being Too Nice Breeds Contempt."  She talks about how she has been showing her DH appreciation, and how she is trying to stop taking control, and the profound effect it has had on her marriage.  She changed just a few things, and BAM! he's acting like a completely different man.   Appreciating your husband, relinquishing control, and letting him lead makes a difference!  Let's squash our inner "Superior Wife."   We are beginning Pamphlet 6! Chapter 12 is entitled "Making Men Notice You." The most important sentence is "...what really attracted the man in each case was the opportunity to act the part of the 'superior' male in soothing that timidity, in protecting that tenderness, in aiding that helplessness, and in justifying that dependence."   This does not...

What Must I Do to be Saved?

Image
 Hello, Beautiful Homemakers! Today I am reading a 16 page booklet that changed the life of my family.  I discovered it just a few months ago and got in touch with the author.  V. Glenn McCoy and his wife and family gave me permission to read this booklet to you on YouTube. During the last 5 minutes of the video, after I finish reading the booklet, I share these verses: 2 Thessalonians 1:7-9 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Romans 6:2-7 and Galatians 3:22, and 3:26-27. The background of WHY I chose to read this booklet to you (Most of this is NOT in the video, but I know my loyal subscribers will appreciate the full story) In mid-2024 my husband and I were still on our church search.  He dragged me to many a service with rock concerts that, frankly, disgusted me.  In one service, people in the audience bowed to a jesus idol and a fake prop-bible. We left this service half-way through at my insistence (because that breaks the 2nd Commandment).  In the majority of church...
