Doesn't seem that long ago...

It was also during this period of time when Valium was deemed a wonder drug
and called "Mother's Helper"......go figure.

Now THAT's frightening....I'm sure glad it's not like that in our house, I'd never
survive.

Ditto.
A good wife always knows her place eh? Reminds me of the joke we told as
kids, Where does an 800 pound gorrilla sleep? Anywhere she wants to!

Why, why... that's ME! Yes, I do all of those things and more every single
day. And I believe wholeheartedly in the basic concept. Yup, he's the boss
and I'm his slave. I serve no other purpose other than to make sure that
his every need is catered to. It's my mantra and I repeat it throughout the
day. I particularly agree with the premise that "his topics of conversation
are so much more important than (mine)".

I don't think my mom read this article, but she, who was married in
1967, did and still does many of these things for my dad. Again, I
repeat, I want a wife too!!! (

I will admit to having been married more than once. :-) Ya know, for
the right kind of relationship, and being treated with the same
consideration in return, I wouldn't have one bit of trouble following
these "rules". I haven't found that yet- I have always had to fight for
every little thing I wanted or needed. Therefore, I've never found a
reason/incentive to act "the 1950's way" in a marriage.... so far.

that was fun!"

You all think you want a wife.
When you finally get one, she changes the kitchen cupboards all around
and always puts the toilet paper roll on backwards.
It's not all loungeing about with a box of bon bons you know!
