Contents: First written in 1932 and later reprinted in 1943, this is the book your grandparents read to learn about sex and marriage long before it was taught in school! The book combines medical facts together with the morality of the day in which it was written. Chapters include discussion of male and female anatomy with suitable diagrams, puberty and menstruation, continence (is it harmful?), love and courtship, sexual magnetism, true vs sensual love, sex and marriage, mistakes of the bridegroom, immorality in marriage (sexual overindulgence), abortions and miscarriage, birth control (including sterilization, which the author appears to feel is justified in the case of certain degenerates), eugenics or race improvement, sterility and frigidity, self abuse, the social evil (prostitution), and more.
