Womanhood: The Facts of Life Revealed to Women

Knowledge was the first step toward independence.

Originally published in 1927, Womanhood: The Facts of Life Revealed to Women offered women frank information about subjects that society often expected them to face in silence.

Gloria Goddard explores the physical, emotional, and social passage into womanhood, beginning with adolescence and reproductive health before turning to love, courtship, marriage, sexuality, education, and personal responsibility. Throughout the work, she argues that informed women are better prepared to make confident choices about their bodies, relationships, and futures.

At a time when open discussion of female biology and sexual health remained controversial, Womanhood challenged ignorance and secrecy by treating knowledge as an essential part of women’s well-being and independence.

Narrated by Ann Fritz, this audiobook offers modern listeners a revealing historical perspective on women’s health education, changing social expectations, and the early twentieth-century movement toward greater openness and equality.

Publisher’s note: This work is presented as a historical document. Some medical information, terminology, and social attitudes reflect the standards and beliefs of 1927 and should not be considered current medical guidance.
