“All the Dirt on Anti-Flirt”

This little Monkey doesn’t like to brag, but she’s been known to turn a few heads. What can you expect when a girl walks around in a perfect little package? Stylish clothes, careful makeup, and a hairstyle that will never see a braid or bun. She’s a modern girl with modern dreams, and she likes all the perks that come from living free from pantaloons and petticoats. And so, what’s a girl to do once the heads turn? To flirt or not to flirt? That is the question. If a man winketh, shall we not wink back? If he honketh his horn, shall we not smile and wave? Monkey’s new club has the answer, and that answer is “No.”

You might have noticed a little item in the papers, way in the back where nobody cares. Miss Alice Reighly and her group: the Anti-Flirt Club. If you’re a woman ready to crawl back into the last century and wait for your cotillion escort to favor you with a dance, this might be the place for you. If you believe women should be silent, invisible, disappearing meekies, then you are a candidate. (Ladies only, please. They might find the presence of a man to be too frightening.)

There’s a motto at the Anti-Flirt Club: “Those who flirt in haste repent in leisure.” Ha! Ha! Any girl who’s batted her eyes at the wrong sheik knows if she flirts in haste, she gets him first, before some other sheba takes him away.

Miss Reighly also says we aren’t anybody’s baby but our mothers’. True enough, I guess, but this Monkey remembers her mother marching in the streets for the vote. For equality. And what better way to show you’re equal to a man than to give to him as good as he gives to you? Don’t be fooled, my little monkey girls. Your power isn’t in your vote. It’s in your eyes. It’s in any part of you that you can use to bend his will. Bat your eyes and blow a kiss. No reason you can’t close the bank later.
