HELEN ANDELIN AND THE FASCINATING WOMANHOOD MOVEMENT UPDATE

Before she passed away, Helen Andelin asked her eldest daughter, Dixie Andelin Forsyth, to update her work to reflect changes in culture and to help the book reach a broader international audience.

Fascinating Womanhood is the original guide for women on how to find true happiness in relationships and marriage. It's actually still in print, but with over 2 million copies sold there's bound to be quite a few circulating used so you don't actually have to support it.Fascinating Womanhood Vintage Edition Book Review:įascinating Womanhood is proud to introduce the long-awaited update to the international best-seller that was translated in to ten languages and sold millions of copies around the world and gave birth to a global women’s movement. If masculinity is so strong, why does it need to be coddled? That's the biggest point I don't understand about practicing Fascinating Womanhood, but now I'm kind of rambling.Īgain, I encourage everyone read it at some point. There are a few good points, such as building a worthy character by seeing the good in others, but it is vastly outweighed by outdated, sexist views. Weirdly enough, I know people who would probably enjoy this book in a nonironic way and agree with the importance of maintaining gender roles- likely because those individuals and the author are both Mormon (which is likely why the phrase 'Celestial Marriage' pops up periodically)Īs a woman who kills her own snakes (not really sure why that phrase was used to symbolize independent woman, but oh well), this book made me either chuckle or chuck it across the room, depending on where I was. and that sexual immorality (which includes adultery but also premarital sex and homosexuality) was the cause for the fall of nations (citing the Roman Empire, Damascus, etc.) Helen Andelin also says in a later chapter that women in the workforce are the root of most of modern society's ills- divorce, broken homes, etc. Putting the onus of being the breadwinner & doing the finances on the guy while leaving all of the homemaking & childrearing to the woman may work for some but it's definitely not the ideal that will work for everyone. Partly because some of the ideas are a little on the ridiculous side (like taking cues from how small children behave as a way to act angry or get what you want), and partly to demonstrate why we (and I say this in a general all human sense) need feminism. Despite the low rating I give it, I actually recommend everyone read this at some point.
