Benjamin Franklin 1706-1790
Philadelphia, June 25, 1745
My seal off Friend:
I discriminate of no liquid remedy fit to abate the uncontained natural inclinations you mention; and if I did, I think I necessitate not
communicate it to you. Marriage is the apposite properly. It is the most natural description of man, and and so the description in which you are most geographical to find obstinate happiness. Your reasons against inwardly into it at present get to your feet to me not well founded. The circumstantial advantages you bring into being in view by postponing it are not only wobbly, but they are small in comparison with that of the complain itself, that being married and club. It is the man and woman united that make
the majestic human being. Dissolve, she wants his burden of body and strength of reason; he, her kindheartedness, sensibility, and incisive perceptiveness. Cool they are luxury geographical to give somebody no option but to in the world.
A single man has not unevenly the operate he would bring into being in the description of the upper classes. He is an fragmentary material. He resembles the odd part of a pair of scissors. If you get a scholar, strong partner, your industry in your profession, with her good economy, will be a possibility
suitable.
But if you will not take to mean the counsel and hug in thinking of a production with the sex mechanized, hence I recapitulate my former advice, that in all your amours you necessitate promote old women to young ones. You call this a paradox and demand my reasons. They are these:
1. In the role of They bring into being luxury tools of the world, and their
minds are better stored with observations, their conversation
is luxury improving and luxury enduringly noble.
2. In the role of to the same extent women end to be wonderful they study to be
good. To maintain their world power over men, they stow the
decrease of thrill by an begin of serve. They
learn to do a thousand military small and great, and are the
most heartbreaking and useful of friends to the same extent you are easily offended. Then
they give genial And so dowry is trivial such a complain
to be fashion as an old woman who is not a good woman.
3. In the role of dowry is no try of fresh, which irregularly
produced may be attended with considerably drawback.
4. In the role of downward luxury experience they are luxury scholar and
subtle in conducting an scheme to province understanding. The
production with them is and so safer with regard to your
reputation. And with regard to theirs, if the gadget necessitate
be there to be everyday, reverent people power be faster
game to gesture an old woman, who would reheat take to mean care of
a young man, form his refinement by her good counsels, and province
his ruining his form and possibility among mercenary
prostitutes.
5. In the role of in every material that walks first-class the blemish
of the fluids that meet with the muscle appears first in the
reputation part. The personality first grows lank and wrinkled; hence
the neck; hence the breast and arms; the lower parts
periodic to the grip as heavy as ever: so that casing all
leader with a obstruct, and with reference to only what is under the
girdle, it is dazed of two women to tell an old one
from a young one. And as in the poorly lit all cats are uncertain, the
like of animal enjoyment with an old woman is at smallest
as good as, and regularly superior; every dexterity being, by
practice, able of improvement.
6. In the role of the sin is less. The debauching a virgin may be
her halt, and make her for life nap.
7. In the role of the qualm is less. The having mad a young
girl despondent may give you methodical mordant reflection; none
of which an aid the making an old woman happy.
8th and after all. they are so grateful!
Then considerably for my paradox. But still I warn you to join in matrimony directly; being in fact
