From the author: I continue to publish fragments of the new book "How an accomplished woman can create a happy family. Maturity. Life scenarios. Sex. Serious relationships" There are many typologies and classifications of women. I would like to introduce you to some little-known people. Let's start with Anton Chekhov, who in his story “A Woman from the Point of View of a Drunkard” classified women by marital status and status: wife - seltzer water; mother-in-law - cucumber pickle; lovely stranger - a glass of vodka before breakfast; widow from 23 to 28 years old - nutmeg -lunel[1] and marsala.widow from 28 onwards - porter.old maid - lemon without cognac.bride - rose water.auntie - vinegar. In the same short story, Chekhov has another classification, the criterion of which is a woman’s age: up to 16 years - distilled water; 16 years - Laninskaya fruit; from 17 to 20 - Chablis and Chateau d'Yquem; from 20 to 23 - Tokay; from 23 to 26 - champagne; 26 and 27 years - Madeira and sherry; 28 - cognac with lemon; 29, 30, 32 - liqueurs; from 32 to 35 - beer from the Vienna plant; from 35 to 40 - kvass; from 40 to 100 years - fusel oil. I note that the age indicators of the past and, especially, the year before centuries differ significantly from the present. Thus, the age of historical and literary characters can plunge us into culture shock. Juliet’s mother was 28 years old at the time of the events described in the play. And Romeo and Juliet are 14. “Balzac’s age” is 30 years old, from the title of the novel “A Woman of Thirty.” Ivan Susanin was 32 years old at the time of the feat, he had a 16-year-old daughter of marriageable age. The old man Cardinal Richelieu at the time described in The “Three Musketeers” of the siege of the La Rochelle fortress were 42 years old. Pushkin’s Tatyana was “about 17 years old at this time,” and her “old woman” mother was 35 years old. The old money-lender from Dostoevsky’s novel “Crime and Punishment” was 42 years old. Anna Karenina at the time of her death was 28 years old, Vronsky was 23 years old, the “old man”-husband Karenin was 48 years old (at the beginning of the events described in the novel, everyone was two years younger). From the notes of 16-year-old Pushkin: “An old man of about 30 years old entered the room "(This was Karamzin). From Tynyanov: "Nikolai Mikhailovich Karamzin was older than all those gathered. He was thirty-four years old—the age of decline.” It’s a paradox, in the old days the rhythm of life was much slower than ours, but the pace is much faster. If earlier at 40 life faded away in “old age”, now at 40 years old life is just beginning... Usually in my typology I use structuring according to scenarios and role settings. I will give some classifications. Alternative - casual relationships are acceptable, compensating for the quality of relationships with quantity, creating parallel relationships as insurance against loneliness. Attitude: “a man will leave you sooner or later, so you shouldn’t count on a long-term relationship.” A hermit - leads an ascetic lifestyle, inconspicuous, unkempt appearance, often putting on weight in order to protect herself from men. Attitude: “no men - no problem with men.” Mercantile, bright, sexy - exchanges her beauty, affection for status, career and material wealth. The attitude: “men come and go, but status and gifts remain.” Manipulator - creates psychological and social dependence of a man on himself. Attitude: “in order for a man not to leave, we need to make him dependent, “get him hooked” as much as possible”: care (he is well-groomed, fed, he feels comfortable in the house, etc.); finances (buying fashionable things, accessories, cars, help with work etc.); permissiveness (sexual experiments, permission to cheat, etc.); blackmail - manipulation of guilt, fear (illness, children, suicide, etc.). You can also divide women by images. The Alternative and Mercantile can be in the image of “Fatal” or “Doll”. The Hermit and the Manipulator can be found in the image of the “Domestic Hen”, “Mother Teresa”, “Business Woman”, “Intellectual Woman” and “Boundweed”. I also use the format of family-kinship relationships. A partner can be in the following roles: parent (directive or caring) -/
