Home is Where You Hang Yourself; or, How To Be a Woman

First published in 1962, this is a wonderful collection of humorous articles on feminine topics written by actress and stuntwoman-turned-writer Cynthia Hobart Lindsay. "e;The art of being a woman successfully can be learned neither from life nor from a charm school. It is a quality mysteriously endowed at birth a magic quality. If it is inherent in you, you are blessed indeed. If it isn't, you just have to keep trying harder, and harder and harder. "e;Plan your life, organize your time, and if you can't learn from your own experiences, try to learn from those of others mine, for instance. There may be a little something useful you can pick up in this "e;How to"e; in Womanship; if so, I'm grateful that I've contributed to easing your situation while complicating my own. "e;But as you go on your womanly way, remember, and keep always in mind, the one imperative fact: You Can't Win."e; (Cynthia Hobart Lindsay)
