1950s Magazine Shares 129 Different Ways To “Bag A Husband”

Jordana Grace resides in Queensland and when she shared this hilarious video, she never could have expected how far things would go.

The video was initially shared on Instagram and we have been cackling ever since we saw it for the first time. The British woman found a magazine from 1958. While that would have been funny enough, it is what she found inside that will really have you laughing.

The magazine included an article about the best ways to find a husband and even provided 129 different tactics to use. We were howling with laughter at one part of the clip in particular. “Number 17. Be nice to ugly men because handsome is as handsome does,” she shared. Some women may not agree with this but there is a point to be made here.

Sometimes, it is the men who are not as conventionally attractive as their peers who make for the best partners. However, there are some who will counter the importance of physical attraction. Either way, we can see why that part in particular is going to get a lot of laughs. It is also going to lead to a lot of debate.

While some of these tips seem to be a bit outdated, there are some that still make perfect sense. The next one that we are about to share gets a bit dark but it’s still funny regardless.

“Number 23. Go to all your high school reunions because there could be widowers there,” says the article. A bit rude, yes, but still sensible all the same.

“Number 25. Go back to your hometown because a wild boy next door might now be an eligible bachelor,” reads another tip. This one’s mileage may vary, depending on where you are from. For some of us, the prospect of returning home is a blast. For others, it probably sounds like a fate worse than death.

The last tip that we are going to share just might be the most diabolical one of all. “Number 40 is the best. Stand in the corner and cry softly because they’ll come over and ask what’s wrong,” Jordana says.

This is foolproof if you ask us. Only the most heartless man would be able to avoid coming over to see what’s the matter.
