I found this article from an old copy of 'The Berrow's Journal'. When I saw it I knew I had to post it.
These eyebrow-raising hints are from the March edition dated 1904.

"The Cultured Women":
"She is one whose manners are always perfect and who does not offend you by gushing over you one day and freezing you out the next."
"She is one whose gowns attract no notice unless by their absolute suitability."
"She can be friendly without being familiar and can repel without being rude."
"She refrains from saying malicious things, not only because it will ruin the shape of her mouth but because they are in bad taste."
"She always makes you feel at ease with yourself and the rest of the world."
"She is one who, if stewed puppy were served at your dining table, would praise its flavour and talk of the civilisation of the chinese."
"She can make order come where disorder has reigned and put everything where it should be."
"She is one with whom it is a delight to associate and is governed by the desire to make life run smoother and easier."
"She is the one women it would be well for all women to imitate!"

Well that's me screwed then ! :evil:
So are YOU a cultured women ?
