I would rather be a spinster than a doormat. Any "man" who want that kind of woman, is not a man at all.
Those "not man at all" did stop the Nazis.
Being good at war doesn't necessarily make one a man.0 -
Woman, you have no idea how lucky you are to have landed a man. But as the literature of the mid-century’s greatest matrimonial minds tells us, he’s one wrinkled shirt away from leaving you. Eyes open and mouth shut ladies. It’s about to get real.
article could have stopped here if it had read- eyes closed and mouth open. Although.. I do prefer to keep my eyes open for that kind of thing0 -

What is your definition? Since, stopping the greatest evil of the last century, doesn't speak of their character at all.0 -

Let's see here...
No, you can talk. However,1. Don't Talk
a) Speak to me as you want to be spoken to. Don't disrespect me and expect that I will continue to treat you respectably.
b) Do know that every single thing that you say isn't necessarily more important than whatever I'm doing, watch, or listening to.
c) Do know that repeatedly saying the same thing over, and over, and over, is one of the quickest ways for me to get me to tune you out.
d) I can hear you just as clearly when you're not standing directly between me and the TV. I'm not a unidirectional microphone; my hearing is not based on line-of-sight.
Saloons? They still had those in the 1950s? Sounds more 1850s to me.2. Bad cooking will drive your man to seedy saloons
Hey, sometimes a quick cheap pork is exactly what the doctor ordered! <eyebrow wiggle>3. Be the Hot Steak, Not the Cheap Pork
Ummm, nah, I ain't trying to have the mods crack down on me. Insert your own #giggidy here...4. But don't be a Sexual Vampire or a Frigid Franny
What are these "panties" you speak of?5. Pink Panties are a must
Gonna happen with or without you... which side of the fence you wanna be on?6. Let him have a little fun now and then
Pffft! She ain't even the boss of herself! Some wacky voices seep in there and start pulling strings sometimes. Well, at least that's the image that plays in my head to make me a little less fearful of the crazy person in front of me.7. Your Husband is The Boss Of You0 -
It's all about the cheap pork...
That's no cheap pork.
Sure it is! It's just pennies per pound.
Ah, but how many pounds?0 -
My in-laws call me an "old soul". Im all about catering to my man. I love cooking, i love serving him, Its what I love to do. Im a hard working woman and independent but when i love, i love hard, and he is the king in MY castle, thats how i see it. Glad some woman see things as i do, because not a lot of woman do. I been with my man for 6 years, and its working this far. I do nag, but make up in everything else i do for him ;-) **** he bust is *kitten* all week for his family too, he deserves it ;-)0

I prefer a crazy chick that talks too much, complains about everything, can't cook, is a sexual vampire, is always needy.......... The more crazy the better.......
Give that chick black and neon panties.

Many of the men who fought in WW2 were drafted and did not have much choice when it came to stopping the greatest evil of the last century. While I appreciate everything our soldiers have done for our country and the rest of the world, to automatically assume they are all good people or have good character would be foolish. Defining exactly what a "man" is would be nearly painstaking and time consuming as defining beauty. Instead I will say, that any man that treats a woman as a possession or as someone who should be seen and not heard or as someone who is merely there to do his cooking and cleaning and occasionally be used for his sexual satisfaction when he doesn't feel like going out and screwing around on her is no man at all. That is a selfish boy attempting to play grown up. I love my boyfriend and I do things sometimes just because it will make him happy. That does not negate my ability to have opinions, or to tell him about my day regardless of how trivial it may or may not have been.0 -
Wow, no wonder I'm a feminist.
Once again men have no responsibility for infidelity it's a woman's fault she didnt cook right and never wore pink panties.
Remember this is the same era that had instructions for African Americans on how to behave properly among white society.0 -
I think this is all solid advice.

Let's not forget the country (men, women, young, and old) was at war we were all involved. You had women making the planes and munitions, healing the soldiers on the front line to help with the war efforts.
and not to be a total nerd but I think it was the dropping of a few A bombs that won the war.0 -
how did a thread about sexual vampires and pink panties get so srs?0
-
I moonlight as a sexual vampire who only preys on girls wearing pink panties....0
-
It is to be borne in mind that it is particularly older girls—girls between thirty and fifty—who are apt to be unreasonable in their demands
Cough.
Same line of thought why a little girl in Yemen died on her wedding night. Young women are malleable and obedient.0 -

Um. You are missing the part where this list doesn't define what men in the 1950's actually thought.0 -

I think it's the perception that some people actually agree with the propaganda. It would be similar to reading a pamphlet for slaves on how to keep your master happy and agreeing with it.0 -
Heaven help the man who tries any of those with me.... he'll wake up outside covered in his belongings. Even my hubs knows better (and he tried as his parents did grow up with those values).
Good for a giggle before the insult implied got to much for me0 -

Did you read the thing?
Srsly. Making men happy doesn't have to equate to undermining your own humanity.0 -

NO no there is a fair and equal trade of ejs for bjs0 -
