1950s are SO OVER

Dos and DON'Ts for a 1950’s housewife appeared in a 1955 edition of Good House Keeping Magazine

• Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him. His boring day may need a lift and one of your duties is to provide it.

• After all, catering to his comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction.

• Greet him with a warm smile and show sincerity in your desire to please him.

• Listen to him. You may have a dozen important things to tell him, but the moment of his arrival is not the time. Let him talk first - remember, his topics of conversation are more important than yours.

• Arrange his pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soothing and pleasant voice.

• Don’t ask him questions about his actions or question his judgment or integrity. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will always exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him.

• A good wife always knows her place.

so here is MY RESPONSE:

To All Husbands (and men to hope to be) -

Remember your wife had more than one suitor to choose from and you must work to keep your #1 spot.

You will NEVER know the pain and hardship your wife went through to bear your children– you need to show your gratitude for this everyday. (no matter how many diapers you change or bottles you fix, its nothing compared to going through labor!)

If your wife is the one who has to do all the housework and childcare, how can you expect her to have any time and energy to be intimate with you?
(studies show husbands who help around the house, have more sex!)

Marriage is a partnership and therefore, both partners should have a say.

And last but not least, regardless of what your buddies in the locker room say, a big d**k is NOT all we are looking for and will only make up for so much.
