"She always looks so great! Her hair.....her skin.....everything...just right. Another thing....everybody likes her...the girs just as much as the boys."
You and Your Dates: How to be a Girl with a Boy.
On a date, if your feeling about yourself are happy, it will be partly because of the things you do on that particular date. One of the most important things is to act in wys that will make your date feel masculine and protective toward you.
This means that you should give your date a chance to open car doors for you, help you down from a bus, find a seat at the movies when there is no usher, give your order to the waiter.
Another important thing to do is to act in ways that will make you feel feminine. This doesn't mean that you have to act helpless-you don't have to faint away to feel feminine in the day and age! It does mean that you should speak softly, move quietly, and act in a gentle, ladylike way. It means that you should have disscussions rather then arguments; that you should give suggestions (if asked!) but not orders; let him be the center of the stage-not you.
If you follow this sort of "party" line, you're learning how to be a lovely and popular girl.
