Dating Guru: Marlene Dietrich

I recently had occasion to read up on the great actress and singer from the 1930s and 1940s, Marlene Dietrich. I was amazed at her wisdom regarding the romance dance. Many of the things that she said (below) are things I have said as well, but without her charm.... These quotes show incredible insight into both how to attract, and how to maintain relationships with, men.

"My legs aren't so beautiful, I just know what to do with them."


"The average man is more interested in a woman who is interested in him than he is in a woman with beautiful legs."


"A man would prefer to come home to an unmade bed and a happy woman than to a neatly made bed and an angry woman."


"Once a woman has forgiven a man, she must not reheat his sins for breakfast."

"Most women set out to change a man, and when they have changed him, they do not like him."
