Maybe it is, and maybe it ain't. If I want to back anything up, I NEVER refer to Snopes.
You can see scans of the article pages at the Snopes site. The poster just above you already posted the cover of that issue.
If they are starting families while their husbands are off to war, Marxism isn’t the biggest problem there.
I flunked the “don’t cut your hair” one, but the rest... I’m really a very reasonable woman.
Thanks for the ping. It was worth it.
Pinging some more ladies......
I like the part about do not belittle women employees or you will break their spirit.
Whoops, I have to fix that, in context. I am eating an think faster than I type. I meant to say that (at least in my experience, and other business owners in the company/franchise, also) the single women are inferior workers to their married counterparts, not inferior as people. I listed some of the reasons above.
Can I post this in my office without getting sued?
Probably not.... and I’m a lawyer!
I’m not disputing that. I just have a thing about giving Snopes credit for anything.
And the info from the post is certainly entertaining.
Single young woman are all wrapped up in themselves and being liked..or loved...I work with them every day also...as well as more mature woman...the difference is striking. Most have not learned to control their emotions and are overly sensitive. One call, 21 years...going on 15...cries at the drop of a hat.
That man never met my wife. Or my daughter for that matter. I never worry about anyone running roughshod over either of them.
Agreed. But, then, that was a more rational time.
I thought Standard Oil became Esso (S.O.) and then eventually Exxon after the breakup.
Only three bad ones on your list.
1) The potty lid— running to tinkle in the middle of the night and not stopping to turning on the light, then quickly plopping down, down, down, into the water and possible sprinkles on the rim...come on! Ugh!
1) Crying? UH! Movies, critters on Animal Planet being put to sleep, kids doing sweet stuff, the mister doing something thoughtful. Pshaw...I even cried once when my driver (Nascar) wrecked the misters driver—I didn’t want anybody to be mad at my driver. It isn’t ALL blackmail!
1) Shoes—one can never have enough pairs of boots...nope, no-way, no-how!
You are right...shopping does suck.
IIRC Standard Oil of New Jersey became esso and then XOM. Standard Oil of Indiana became Amoco and then BP. ( I’m sure there is more info online though its too late at night for me to look it up:))
I didn't say "while", but that was the case too. And Marxism did have a hand in that, even though that was one of the things that Marx had the nerve to criticize the "bourgeoisie" for engaging in (he wanted to legitimize it).

Agreed. It’s just a natural process of life. I personally think that being married also gives you a spiritual sense of well being (call it psychological if you will). At one time we have a very beautiful married woman working with us. Not once did she ever flirt, or feel uncomfortable around the males, because she was just working to help pay bills while her husband was in college. She was always eager to get back home to him, which I appreciated. When the pressure was tough, she didn’t buckle, either. All around she was very admirable. While I have seen that in a few single (college/away from home) girls/women in their mid 20’s, I have yet to professionally see it in someone under the age of 23 or so.
And that’s not to even mention the gabbing, lol.
#5 is very relevant, even today, with the majority of women I have known.
