‘How to find a husband’ letter to barrister a reminder of ongoing issues – Lawyers Weekly

On Monday, 1 May, Alexandra Wilson, a junior barrister based in the United Kingdom, posted on Twitter a three-page personalised letter that she received on LinkedIn from another lawyer, which purported to offer advice on how to find a husband.

Ms Wilson is an Oxford graduate who was called to the bar in 2018 and has won multiple scholarships, along with being a vocal campaigner for ethnic minorities.

In a tweet that — as of the time of filing this story — has been viewed almost 90,000 times on Twitter, Ms Wilson shared a letter from another lawyer telling her “How to Find a Husband”.

The unnamed lawyer also commented on how to go about intimacy: “If the relationship is to go anywhere good (and someone who loves you will not be in a hurry to get too intimate, they will be willing to wait for the right time) and no long courtship either, that leads to manipulation, relationship abuse and, in the end, heartbreak.”

He also added: “Develop some cooking skills too! … that skill will serve you well.”
