Elinor Glyn - 1920's

I'm midway through INVENTING THE IT GIRL, a biography of Elinor Glyn from Hilary A Hallett and I definitely recommend it to anyone interested history of the romance genre. There's a lot about the double standards of sexuality in British Edwardian society, as well as acknowledgement of the anti-Semitism and Orientalism at play in views of sexuality. Everyone knows married women have affairs after producing heirs but god forbid you actually write novels acknowledging such. Especially novels in which married women undulate on tiger skin rugs in front of lover who are not their husbands, a scene which happens in Glyn's most well-known, and controversial, novel, THREE WEEKS.

THREE WEEKS was published in 1907, and is therefore in the public domain and not to hard to get a copy of, so I've started reading that as well. Here's the frontispiece showing the book's heroine in the 1907 American edition of the book.

okay I thought about it and I’m gonna elaborate rizz is like. okay so you know how like how elinor glyn equated having “it” to having a certain magnetism and sort of invented the it girl as this like inherently universally desirable woman. and it’s like that plus you know how having game is when you can successfully navigate romantic encounters but specifically in the sense that romance and interaction with the opposite sex - interaction with women, really, let’s not be obtuse - is gamified. rizz is that (gender neutral) (mostly) it’s like. active participation in the way game is and inherent charm the way It is. and also, critically, part of a vocabulary to abate the gravity of romance and attraction as every generation is wont to invent because, as anyone who has ever been 15 may be able to attest to, vulnerability is embarrassing. anyway goodnight love you sleep well

Ah I see, I see. Thank you for this more in depth definition
