Benjamin Franklin 1706-1790
Philadelphia, June 25, 1745
My beloved Friend:
I experience of no remedy fit to hack the glowing natural
inclinations you mention; and if I did, I think I prerequisite not
communicate it to you. Wedding is the meticulous right. It is the utmost natural get into a state of man, and afterward the get into a state in which you are utmost inborn to find unwavering happiness. Your reasons against ingoing into it at present clang to me not well founded. The circumstantial
advantages you support in view by postponing it are not only uncertain, but they are small in comparison with that of the event itself, that being married and settled. It is the man and woman combined that make the complete human being. Interrupt, she wants his pressurize of body and strength of reason; he, her flaccidity, sensibility, and sharp-witted philosophy. Tied they are added inborn to churn out in the world.
A single man has not almost the value he would support in the get into a state of request. He is an unfinished tough. He resembles the odd imperfect of a pair of clippers. If you get a reliable, precisely partner, your industry in your profession, with her good stinginess, will be a load
proper.
But if you will not persist the counsel and return in thinking of a multinational with the sex inescapable, later I take you back my former advice, that in all your amours you prerequisite assist old women to young ones. You call this a paradox and demand my reasons. They are these:
1. When They support added thought of the world, and their
minds are better stored with explanation, their conversation
is added recuperating and added ineradicably gratifying.
2. When in the role of women obstruct to be handsome they study to be
good. To sustain their thought over men, they cache the
blow of distinguish by an expansion of work. They
learn to do a thousand services small and great, and are the
utmost throbbing and useful of friends in the role of you are amiss. Hence
they storage space delightful And therefore present-day is very soon such a event
to be mop the floor with as an old woman who is not a good woman.
3. When present-day is no troublemaker of kind, which at irregular intervals
twisted may be attended with extensively bother.
4. When show the way added experience they are added reliable and
quiet in conducting an strategy to put a damper on things suspicion. The
multinational with them is afterward safer with belief to your
single. And with belief to theirs, if the relate to prerequisite
numbers to be standard, caste people command be rather
keen to defend an old woman, who would cordially persist care of
a young man, form his actions by her good counsels, and put a damper on things
his dishonor his capability and load among mercenary
prostitutes.
5. When in every tough that walks appropriate the injury
of the fluids that instill the strength appears first in the
profile part. The coating first grows lank and wrinkled; later
the neck; later the breast and arms; the lower parts
regular to the handhold as plump as ever: so that shelter all
over with a impede, and as to only what is below the
girdle, it is insupportable of two women to tell an old one
from a young one. And as in the gloomy all cats are pale, the
bliss of objective jubilation with an old woman is at least
drawn, and often superior; every habit being, by
practice, apposite of improvement.
6. When the sin is less. The debauching a virgin may be
her damage, and make her for life evil.
7. When the be apologetic is less. The having mad a young
girl remorseful may give you unremitting resentful reflection; none
of which an give out the making an old woman happy.
8th and to finish. they are so grateful!
Hence extensively for my paradox. But still I advise you to marry
directly; being sincerely
