More fun with Mrs Marryat

Woman's Weekly: 3rd August 1957

Seriously now, is this woman actually married? Any woman knows that men don't get hints, so her advice to 'Disgruntled' is just bizarre. What she really wants to say, of course, is "I had to put up with it, so you can, you slutty mare". Instead, she opts for a subtle suggestion that hubby is going out because his wife has let herself go and he can't bear to look at her anymore. Pre-feminism isn't pretty, boys and girls.

Blimey! Nice advice, there! >_O I am also confused by the wedding stuff - the concept of being given away just seems so odd now!

I think I'm going to be violently sick.

Yeah, all that will say to the bloke is "I'm perfectly happy with everything you're doing, please carry on!"
