A Mental Toothpick For The Fair Sex: Or Something Useful To Occupy Their Time, In The Absence Of Better Amusement (1797) is a book written by Philoguna. The book is intended for women, providing them with something to occupy their time when they have nothing better to do. The title A Mental Toothpick refers to the idea that the book will provide a mental distraction for women, similar to how a toothpick provides a physical distraction. The book is filled with various topics such as history, literature, and science, all intended to educate and entertain women. The author, Philoguna, is likely a pseudonym for an anonymous writer, as there is little information available about them. Overall, the book is a reflection of the societal attitudes towards women in the late 18th century, where women were often seen as idle and in need of constant entertainment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
