Still provocative after all these years, Helen Gurley Brown celebrates the pleasures of flirting, of enjoying affairs from beginning to end, throwing brunches and dinner parties, finding men where you might not think to look, dating (and ditching) married men, and being both feminine and powerful.

Plenty in this book is titillating, but never vulgar by modern standards. This book is a fascinating time capsule view into the life of a single girl in 1962.
What amazed and delighted me most was the volume of completely level headed advise given.
Replace "men" with "all social and professional contacts" and you have a very nice guide to social and professional life!

Wonderful wisdom with a pinch of lasciviousness

dated advice. But was interesting to see the contrast between women in the 50s and women today.

This is pre-feminist empowerment, and is an absolute hoot to listen to. "I think the single woman's biggest problem are the people who are trying to marry her off." Gurley Brown declares in the intro, and from there on in it's clever and entertaining advice for single women of the Sixties. Some of it is absolutely applicable today, the importance of financial independence, why it's good to be worldy and intelligent, why sex is a basic right for single women. It also works as a sociological time capsule, a look into pre-2nd wave feminist society.

It's like spending time with your uber-cougar man-eater grandma. Wildly entertaining. She makes singledom sound like so much fun!

Although this book was initially written in the 60s; it's a timeless treasure relevant to dating & mating in 2019 almost prothetic. I liked how it taught how to identify the different types of men around us & their role (or potential) role on a single girl's life. Great book!
