Sex Tips for Husbands and Wives from 1894
In 1894, Ruth Smythers, 'Beloved wife of The Reverend L. D. Smythers', wrote:'While sex is at best revolting and at worse rather painful, it has to be endured...One cardinal rule of marriage should never be forgotten: give little, give seldom and, above all, give grudgingly...Most men are by nature rather perverted, and if given half a chance, would engage in quite a variety of the most revolting practices.'The Methodist wife didn't intend to be amusing, but this brief treatise written for young brides is side-splitting today and an eye-opener to how mores have changed in just over a century.It includes essential advice on: how to discourage your spouse's amorous advances; appropriate night-wear for the wedded couple; and, the acceptable length and frequency of unavoidable sexual encounters.

Sex Tips for Husbands and Wives from 1894
This little book contains real life tips from the Reverend and his wife on how to NOT have sex, or at least discourage your husband from initiating it. It really does show how far we have come in just over a century and how the sexual revolution did make a real difference. A good read if you want to give your other half a giggle!
