Modern Marriage
Jealousy Among Women Is Big Problem;
They Never Set Same Standards for Men
By Dr. Paul Popenoe
Maybe it's love and love alone
the world Is seeking, as the song
alleges; but what it gets is some
times jealousy instead of love.
That was the conclusion of a
women’s club in Chicago, which
got started on a discussion of the
subject, "What Is Delaying the
Progress of Women?” Some of
the old-timers took it for granted
that men would be incriminated.
But even the older members un
consciously lined up with the
younger ones in answering the
question, “Do you prefer to work
under men or women superiors?”
The answer was almost unan
imous: “Men!”
Why? They said that men aSj
bosses are likely to be more con-[
siderate, more appreciative, less1
exacting. Women employers, too
often, are petty—and jealous.
“Just look at how women pass
up women doctors,” a member re
marked. “It's jealously among
women themselves. It starts in
high school. If school girls think
a girl has a chance to be elected
president, they’ll vote for a boy.”
One member suggested that
what is often called pettiness,
jealousy, childish behavior in
business and personal relations, Is
just an unusual attention to de
tail, a capacity for noticing little
things, for which she alleged that
women are well known, and which
jshe declared that most men lack.
1 But she did not explain why wom
en look for these details in other
women instead of in men.
An insurance executive ended
the argument: "Yes,” she sighed,
“it’s woman against woman—and
what can we do about it?”
Questions and Answers.
Q. Is there any way to stop a
child from asking incessant ques
tions?
A. That’s the way the child gets
an education. Try directing a
conversation of your own. instead
of making him take all the initia
tive.
Q. Is it true that married per
sons are least likely to become in
sane?
A. Yes. Statistician Neil A.
Dayton found the liability to men
tal disorders was least among the
married, then the widowed, single,
and finally the divorced, who had
the highest rate of mental dis
ease.
Q. Do you think it is ever prop
er for a high school girl to ask
a boy for a date?
A. Only in specially circum
stances. A girl who takes the in
; itiative in that way is likely to be
; shunned. Try to be where boys
are, and make yourself pleasant
and interesting. They'll do the
rest.
Q. Do you approve of high
school girls going on blind dates?
A. Yes, if it is arranged by some
one whom you can trust, and
you are going with a group. Don't
go on a blind date alone.
Q. Is it all right to let a boy
kiss you good-night on the first
dates?
A. Almost all girls will tell you
no. A kiss ought to mean genuine
liking, and that can hardly be ex
pected to grow in just a few hours.
