Title

"Beware of Chance Acquaintances"

Description

This poster warns women not to associate with men they don't know. It is part of a larger poster series called "Youth and Life."

"'Pick-up' acquaintances often take girls autoriding, to cafés, and to theatres with the intention of leading them into sex relations. Disease or child-birth may follow : Avoid the man who tries to take liberties with you : He is selfishly thoughtless and inconsiderate of you : Believe no one who says it is necessary to indulge sex desire : Know the men you associate with"
