The illustrated guide, which was published by Click Parade magazine in the US in 1938 and recently resurfaced online, includes a string of warnings modern girls would baulk at; from minimising their alcohol intake to always looking interested - even if their date's chat is less than scintillating.
Ladies wishing to touch up their make-up were also warned never to do in front of a man - only in private - and urged not to make conversation on the dancefloor.
Read on for more 'tips' that will make you thankful you're on the dating scene in 2017.

Always have 2 shots b4 a date.
I know I dont know much about your men without women group, but what do women do who hate the feminism scene too?
LOL, looks like she's holding a cellphone.
As a 55 year old divorced, single male I can factually tell you that trying to date ANY woman and treat her like a lady is a complete and total exercise in futility.
There is no room for a traditional/conservative male such as myself in this country as far as 99.99999% of the women I've met are concerned.
In college, I dated one girl a couple of times. We went back to her place on the second date. She pulls out HER black book. Had phone numbers for 100’s of guys. I don’t know what her point was of showing it to me, but I took it as I wasn’t that special.
Needless to say, I didn’t call her back.
I’ve watched some of the MGTOW stuff. Most of it comes across as Male Feminism or Menism. Meaning it makes broad, sometimes erroneous stereotypes about the opposite sex and that men should mostly just hose and dispose of women, not let them into your heart, wallet or life. That’s the sum total of it. Much better treatise is Dr. Robert Glover’s “No More Mr. Nice Guy”. How men can become more well rounded, self confident, and grounded and become a chick magnet if that is what you desire.
Most of the MGTOW guys on YouTube are mad because they are 46 and some 28 year old fish lipped, siliconed Russian Mail Order Bride HoBag dumped them after she got the engagement ring. Watch the videos, they can be quite funny, reeks of fake Alpha Make whining and penis envy. If you view yourself and act like candy coated crap, you will attract that..aka shallow physically attractive women who are emotional damaged. The sex will be fun but don’t say you have not been warned when she hypergamies your butt for her wealthy boss.
I’m sure you did a million times better!
Good point.
As that rare, exotic, and occasionally controversial creature, the lifelong straight bachelor, I am perpetually confused over how women insist they want a man who treats them right, then turn around and give themselves to brutes.
I suspect this might have something to do with their most basic urges confusing barbarism with masculinity.
At age 59, I’m content that I’ve put this all behind me. Dating was too often like a really bad job interview — with the main difference being that I had to pay for it.
I’ve always prided myself on being a gentleman of the old school — which, even back in the 1980s and 1990s, I have no doubt women found very boring indeed.
But there was no way I was going to fake a “cool” or “bad boy” persona just to get chicks. Just like I would never date a woman who dressed provocatively.
Of course the ultimate problem is that even the women who seem modest and intelligent, still want to date cads, brutes, and bad boys.
There is absolutely no way you can win with women today — and that goes back to my dating years in the 1980s, and 1990s. How can you win with narcissistic females who don’t know who they are, what they want, and who have been totally confused by a corrupt media?
There are worse things in life than being alone. Being manipulated and being taken advantage of are two of them.
Minor modification and the guide is good for today!
Which I did a double take on too!
I’d say in that day men didn’t like their date to wear a bra.
Yeah.
I had the same thing happen to me.
Girl pulled out her little black book during the date.
So I pulled out my little black book.
“Rules Of High School Basketball”
She was popular, but I never got called for three seconds in the key.
Um, no. My mother was in her 20s when this guide was published and she passed these tips along to us boys in the 1960s. Nothing wrong with them.
Not true. My heart beat fast for Wally Cox. Nerds are cool!
You have pretty well summed it up.
Wow, thank you for such a thoughtful post!

Generalizations are never correct. :-)
My advice, for what it is worth—live life a day at a time and be involved in activities you really enjoy.
Something good could still happen—without warning or any planning on your part.
From the other side of the gender divide, I agree with you that its better to be alone than trapped in a bad relationship. Id like a good relationship where you live apart and dont have the right to control the others life. Something like when you were 17 and still lived at home, and you got together solely because you were having so much fun. Yeah, I know, wish me luck. Im not giving up hope tho.
No doubt. When you are young, you barely know yourself, let alone what kind of person your mate should be.
My wife is introverted just enough for me.
Any woman who would ever “talk” to 100 different guys socially, let alone date them is not the right personality for me.
Then she must have some weird tumors on each breast. Probably it was a cheap bra of some kind.
