Happened to read this book from google digital archive. Excerpt from a book - From a Girl's point of View by Lilian Bell (c) 1897 Chapter 1, The Untrained Man under Thirty Five page 8 The trained man wishes to amuse. A man under thrity-five is in this world to be made happy. The man over thirty-five tries to make you happy. There is no use of uttering a protest. You simply must wait, and let life take it out of him. The man under thirty-five is being trained in a thousand ways every day that he lives. Some learn more quickly than others. It depends on the type of man and the lenght of time he is willing to remain in the raw. You can do little to help him, if you are the first girl to take a hand at him. You can but prepare him to be a little more amenable to the next girl. His mind is not on you. It is centered on himself. You are only an entity to him, not an individual. He cares nothing for your likes and dislikes, your cares or hopes or fears. He only wishes you to be pretty and well dressed. Have a mind if you will. He will not know it. Have a heart and a soul. They do not concern him, because he cannot see them. He likes to have you tailor-made. You are a GIRL to him. That's all. End Quote - Then it stikes me - have you perceived me as 35 or older? Regardless my 15 years of age ahead you - did I let my youthful inside reveal? -- A broken clock can tell right time twice a day. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 209.6.175.234 (美國) ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/EngTalk/M.1596549237.A.411.html
