M. Esther Harding, a distinguished Jungian analyst, began her book The Way of All Women by describing the type of woman who is “all things to all men.” This type is the “anima woman” who “adapts herself to his wishes, makes herself beautiful in his eyes, charms him, pleases him.” She is “not sufficiently aware of herself to be able to give a picture of what her subjective life is like.”
