Workbook for a Woman’s Guide to Business and Social Success: A Personal Analysis Record
1983
Submitter: We found this workbook still sitting on the shelf, long after the actual textbook was weeded, 15 years ago! The work book is filled with the classic tropes of the era. Ladies need to be thin, pretty and submissive to make it in the working world. An ‘interesting’ glimpse into the past.
Holly: This. Is. Awful. Sections like “My Cosmetics and How I Will Apply Them,” “My Hair Care and Coiffure Arrangement Analysis,” and “Developing and Attractive Voice” make me want to vomit. Also, we all know that workbooks are the kiss of death in libraries. How did this one survive almost 40 years without being all written up?
