"Private Sex Advice to Women: For Young Wives and those who Expect to be Married" by R. B. Armitage, M.D. is an instructional guide focused on sexual education for women, likely written in the early 20th century. This work aims to provide essential knowledge about sex physiology, anatomy, and hygiene, addressing the significant lack of sexual education afforded to women, especially those preparing for marriage. The book tackles societal taboos surrounding sex, arguing for the importance of understanding one's body and sexual functions for achieving a harmonious marital and parental life. The opening of the text sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of women's anatomy and its relevance to their lives. Armitage emphasizes the alarming ignorance that many women possess about their reproductive health, attributing this to outdated beliefs and societal norms that discourage open discussion about sexual matters. The author advocates for a rational and scientific understanding of sexual physiology, contending that this knowledge is crucial for preventing marital disharmony and enhancing personal fulfillment. Through direct addresses and clear explanations, Armitage seeks to empower women with the knowledge they need to take charge of their health and relationships.
