Helen Berry Andelin was the founder of the Fascinating Womanhood Movement, which began with women's marriage classes she taught in the early 1960s.
Her writings, including the book "Fascinating Womanhood," have been controversial among feminists for advocating traditional marriage roles for women.
Despite criticism, Andelin's ideas continue to find support and are still taught in online classes and seminars.
Her work focuses on teaching women how to cultivate feminine qualities and behaviors to improve their marriages.
Andelin's teachings have been both praised for strengthening marriages and criticized for promoting outdated gender stereotypes.
Her influence on discussions about marriage and gender roles has persisted long after the initial publication of her work.
