I feel like the writers from The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel have referred to this list!

These ideas/ rules were not funny when you lived it. We have come so far but not far enough. I get very upset with young women who believe that being a feminist is a bad thing. Be ever vigilant, there is a rather large group that would love to shove women back into 1958.

I much prefer #111 - #129. The rest make my head hurt.

Hide your Phi Beta Kappa key! Nothing much has changed there. Some men are still apparently threatened by an intelligent woman.

A couple of those aren’t quite awful.
Go to the engineering school, take classes, get a degree, make a lot oh money, buy that fancy car, get a boy toy!

Still laughing at making toupees for bald men, LOL!
Some of the suggestions sound downright dangerous! Though I do personally know of one woman who met her husband when he stopped to change her flat tire. The world was kinder and friendlier back then, I guess. Nowadays no telling what kind of man you would meet.

I like the one that said “go to Yale”.
Yes, go to Yale. Because you’re fucking smart. Get educated in a subject you are passionate about, and use that education to get a job to support yourself.

Unfortunately Yale wasn’t accepting women in 1958.  link |

That was all so disgusting.
Stalk widowers? To me that says "Be a golddiger".
Get a sunburn? Melanoma is super sexy.
Men don't like ill women? If you get sick then you're not worthy of a man.
I'm so glad we're not in 1958.

The list is, of course, ludicrous through our eyes, but I can't imagine today's methods of finding a mate are going to hold up to future scrutiny either.
1) Develop a great intro for your online dating profile.
2) Take pictures at the most appealing angle.
3) Use App A for hookups but App B if you are looking for a relationship.
4) Apps C, D, and E will give you a score about how well you will work together.
5) App F shows you pictures so that you can make a snap judgement.
6) Don't be overly enthusiastic.
7) Date the old fashioned way - meet someone at church, a bar, or at a shared hobby/interest.
I'm not sure strategically breaking down in his neighborhood is that much worse than changing your profile get more matches.
