Download or read book Single Past 50 Now What written by Tammy Bleck and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2008-02-01 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learn what you never knew. Face what you were afraid of. Laugh, cry, yell and wonder how a book can know so much about you. Is it possible that YOU could be better off single? Tammy Bleck found herself single after 25 years of marriage; in her fifties, her daughter off to college, broke and unemployed, and the cat and the dog to feed. Not exactly her life's plan. Born and raised in Los Angeles, an only child to a single mother, she grew up in the seedy side of the city and learned quickly how to survive. Never acquiring a college degree, Tammy has gone on to receive a Certificate of Commendation from the Mayor of Los Angeles, host a weekly talk radio program, produce a real estate television show, own a successful earthquake survival company, as well as become the co-founder of a property management company which grew to be one of the largest in Southern California. This latest life circumstance has spawned yet another career: author and public speaker.

Download or read book The Single Woman written by Jill Reynolds and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-01 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increase in numbers of single people has been described as one of the greatest social phenomena of western society. Most women will spend periods of their lives alone, without a committed partner relationship. Yet there is still a degree of social stigma attached to this status. Single women are a crucial group for study in relation to perceived changes in family life and relationships. This book provides a new understanding of what is often taken-for-granted – female single identity. In an examination of extracts from her interviews with women aged 30 to 60 years and living alone, Jill Reynolds explores how women deal with this potentially stigmatized identity. She focuses on identity and self-representation through consideration of discourse and the conversational moves made by the participants. Her analysis highlights that the culturally available and familiar resources for understanding singleness are highly polarized. Single women weave their way through the extreme contrasts of a denigrated or an empowered identity. Thus, while most participants give very positive accounts, they also pay attention to widespread social expectations that success in life involves a long-term committed relationship. This book makes an important contribution to the understanding of the lives of single women and represents a challenge to the considerable literature on gender and family life which has inadequately theorized singleness. It will be of great interest to academics and students in social psychology, sociology, social work and social policy. It will also be of particular interest to students of gender studies, qualitative research, narrative studies, conversation analysis and discourse analysis.

Download or read book The Single Woman Married Man Syndrome written by Richard Tuch and published by Jason Aronson, Incorporated. This book was released on 2002-09-01 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many single woman–married man relationships are characterized by such recognizable, even stereotypic, interactions and run such a predictable course as to constitute a genuine syndrome. Documenting the existence of this syndrome with case histories from inside and outside clinical practice, Dr. Tuch gives serious consideration to the complex dynamics involved and offers a framework to help patients struggling with their involvement in such affairs. A broader discussion of relations between men and women evolves and addresses such issues as men's dread of women; women's unique inclinations to employ masochistic adaptations in their relations with men; married couples' varied styles of dealing with their differences; the relationship of power and control to the processes of domination, submission, and the act of surrendering; and the development of the capacity to fall and remain in love.

Download or read book The Single Woman Modernity and Literary Culture written by Emma Sterry and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book situates the single woman within the evolving landscape of modernity, examining how she negotiated rural and urban worlds, explored domestic and bohemian roles, and traversed public and private spheres. In the modern era, the single woman was both celebrated and derided for refusing to conform to societal expectations regarding femininity and sexuality. The different versions of single women presented in cultural narratives of this period—including the old maid, odd woman, New Woman, spinster, and flapper—were all sexually suspicious. The single woman, however, was really an amorphous figure who defied straightforward categorization. Emma Sterry explores depictions of such single women in transatlantic women’s fiction of the 1920s to 1940s. Including a diverse selection of renowned and forgotten writers, such as Djuna Barnes, Rosamond Lehmann, Ngaio Marsh, and Eliot Bliss, this book argues that the single woman embodies the tensions between tradition and progress in both middlebrow and modernist literary culture.
