Synopsis

Over 50 years after the original book became a bestseller and birthed an international women’s movement, the sequel to Helen Andelin’s Fascinating Womanhood is here. Originally published in 1963, Fascinating Womanhood sold over 5 million copies globally and was translated into 7 languages. As controversial as it was popular, the book also spawned a grassroots movement where women could learn more about feminine influence in relationships and the home—classes that continue to this day in countries including Australia, Brazil, Cameroon, Japan, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Uganda, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The sequel Fascinating Womanhood for the Timeless Woman sees Andelin’s daughter, Dixie Andelin Forsyth, pick up her mother’s mantle with the aim of ‘awakening an enlightened form of femininity in women, in order to inspire a noble masculinity in men, and create a lifelong romance.’ “Fascinating Womanhood for the Timeless Woman holds the position that most cultures have lost the sense of ascendency that comes from proper cultivation of femininity and masculinity in women and men, respectively. Fascinating Womanhood teaches that femininity inspires a noble masculinity in men and that it empowers and liberates women to pursue their greatest potential. We teach that women are the ‘gatekeepers of civilization’ and ‘humanity’s original adults.’ We refer to something we call ‘feminine power’ which is unlocked by a ‘fascinating woman,’” Dixie says. Fascinating Womanhood for the Timeless Woman is not merely a book of personal or moral opinions. It’s based in part on modern science, over 50 years of teaching experience and feedback, and most importantly, results.

Goodreads review by Laney on December 26, 2020

This book was a really good reminder of all the ways that I am giving up my feminine power and instead trying to be masculine. I clearly still have a long way to go in order to truly be the most feminine version of myself, but this book gave me a lot of good pointers on where to continue to improve......more

Goodreads review by Janelle on November 26, 2023

I read this on recommendation from a wise friend, and found lots of gold. Solid, old-fashioned / timeless advice on relating well to men. (I would call the chapter on "girlishness" a bone to spit out.) It's written for wives, with one chapter specifically for single women, but good relationship advi......more
