You should be flattered at how my words they just scatter
Lady readers, are you worried about how to behave at the Holiday festivities this season? Never fear, Alyson and her Party Tips from 1952 are here to help:1. Never anticipate the point of any joke or anecdote of your male companion. Laugh politely as though it is the first time you have heard it.
2. Overlook the deficiencies of others when you are talking to them; they may be the result of ignorance.
3. Avoid, at all times, mentioning subjects or incidents that may disgust potential suitors. This is especially true about vermin, noxious plants, or instances of uncleanliness.
4. It is a mark of ill-breeding to use French words or phrases.
5. Under no circumstance correct a male companion in speech or fact, even if you know he is mistaken. It is not a woman’s place to do so and will invariably end in awkwardness.
So remember these if you get confused about your place in the world and happen to step out of the kitchen and away from the oven.
