Never look bored—or unconscious—even if you are: Tips for the single woman, 1938


 
And… THIS is how you land a man 1938-style. Now put a ring on it, dammit!

It was 1938 and times were oh-so-much different then. I always find these vintage “dating tips” for single women hilarious. I mean, “Don’t drink too much, as a man expects you to keep your dignity all evening. Drinking may make some girls seem clever, but most get silly” and “Careless women never appeal to gentlemen, Don’t talk while dancing, for when a man dances he wants to dance.” 

The last image in this series is the true winner though…
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
The only thing I can think of whilst looking at this photo is the Dead Kennedys’ song “Too Drunk To Fuck,” although that’s sung from the male perspective... or the video below it, a crazypants PSA from a conservative “Factual Feminist” (sponsored by the conservative American Enterprise Institute) on how not to get roofied!
