| Summary | "What a Young Woman Ought to Know" by Mary Wood-Allen is a guidebook aimed at young women, written in the late 19th century. The book serves as a part of the "Self and Sex Series," focusing on the physical, emotional, and social responsibilities of young women as they navigate the transition into adulthood. Its central theme revolves around the importance of understanding one's worth and health, especially in relation to personal conduct and societal contributions. At the start of the book, Wood-Allen engages the reader with a heartfelt letter, urging her daughter to recognize her inherent value and potential impact on the world. She emphasizes that a young woman’s worth is not merely material but deeply connected to her spiritual and emotional contributions. The opening chapters discuss the significance of health and bodily care, including topics such as nutrition, exercise, and the importance of self-respect. Through these discussions, the author sets the stage for a larger conversation about the roles women play in shaping society and the future through their health, character, and choices.
