I've been looking for a book to match The Catholic Manual of Civility, which is geared towards men.

Two books I would highly recommend for those of us (read: ALL of us) that have been polluted by communism.

Fascinating Womanhood (For the married and engaged)
The Fascinating Girl (For the single woman)

These books explain the traditional role of women, and put it in perspective in this post-feminist world we live in. I would highly recommend both for all married women, and TFG for teenage girls and single women.

Both discuss how we should treat our men, and proper comportment.

Does ChantCD carry these?

I remember a nice book called 'How to be a Lady".

Right now we are at 'Goops: and How to be them'.

I think Fascinating Womanhood was a book that was loaned to me a few years ago. It wasn't my idea, so it wasn't a priorty and I didn't read much of it. If it's the book I'm thinking of, it seemed much longer than I was interested in reading at the time.

A friend from church gave it to me and said I should read it because she thought it was great and it saved her marriage. But, I was a newlywed at the time and had no need yet for such advice.

No, ChantCD does not sell it... can you tell us who the publisher is?

The copy I have is from Random House.

The lady that wrote it died in 2008. She had 8 children and was 89.

Is there any book about women or girls that is not marriage-oriented?
