    This is the kind of stuff that makes me realize why I am not married.

    What is more interesting is I think that a lot of dudes think this way. (at least many of the dudes that I interact with)

    I have spent a few conversations with many a dude hearing their expectations about women and relationships that appear to have derived from this article. These dudes are usually a little miffd at the fact that women aren't "Ms. 1955" anymore.

    Then they really get miffed when I unleash the queen bee in me and educate them on what's really going on in 2011,lol.

    But of course I do this nice and politely. I have manners after all.:wink::wink:

    OR...you just have double X Chromosome disease and are perfectly insane as all the women that have two X Chromosomes....oh ya that all of you!....(Jim is just kidding ladies please don't go crazy...oops see PROOF!)

    Jim- are you being presumptuous and dumb?? *inside joke* ;-)
    Nope, I'm wearing my sexist D-bag hat today you damn double Xers!

    That dress with some thigh high hooker boots and fishnets on an edgy chick with some wicked tattoos (and Tina Fey Glasses) and a nose ring or six would be SOOOO HOT!

    That's actually a really cool dress. I have heels that would go perfectly with that...No probs. No one said you couldn't dominate a man in a cutesy dress with *****in' high heels!

    Have dinner ready. Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready on time for his return. This is a way of letting him know that you have be thinking about him and are concerned about his needs. Most men are hungry when they get home and the prospect of a good meal is part of the warm welcome needed. (HOW ABOUT FIXING DINER FOR ME OR AT LEAST HELPING??? I'VE DONE 8 TO 10 HRS TOO.)

    Prepare yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so you'll be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your make-up, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh-looking. He has just been with a lot of work-weary people. (AH WHAT?????? IN MY HAIR????)

    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. (BE GAY?????)

    Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives. Run a dustcloth over the tables. (IS HIS ARM BROKE?)

    During the cooler months of the year you should prepare and light a fire for him to unwind by. Your husband will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order, and it will give you a lift too. After all, catering to his comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction. (WHERE IS MY @#!@#@! HAVEN?!)

    Minimize all noise. At the time of his arrival, eliminate all noise of the washer, dryer or vacuum. Encourage the children to be quiet. (WHEN THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO DO THIS STUFF???? WE'VE BEEN AT WORK ALL DAY TOO?????)

    Be happy to see him. (ALWAYS, OTHERWISE YOU WOULDN'T HAVE MARRIED HIM)

    Greet him with a warm smile and show sincerity in your desire to please him. (PLEASE HIM, THAT'S A TWO-WAY STREET)

    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. (WTF? His topics are more important than mine?! WHEN DID THE EARTH START REVOLVING AROUND HIS HAPPY A@#? )

    Don't greet him with complaints and problems. (OK, HE'S GETS 2 SECONDS)

    Don't complain if he's late for dinner or even if he stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through at work. (MINOR MY A@#!!!! WON'T HAPPEN BUT ONCE!!!!)

    Make him comfortable. Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or lie him down in the bedroom. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him. (SURE JUST AS SOON AS I GET ALL THE REST OF WHAT I'VE GOT TO DO DONE. I'LL GET RIGHT ON THAT.)

    Arrange his pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soothing and pleasant voice. (I'LL GET RIGHT ON THAT JUST AS SOON AS THE KIDS GO TO BED)

    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. (MASTER OF THE HOUSE. ONLY IN HIS MIND!!!!!)

    A good wife always knows her place. (YES AND THAT'S BESIDE HER MAN NOT BEHIND OR BOWED DOWN TO)


    AND THEY WONDER WHY THEY CAN'T KEEP A GOOD WOMEN. LOL.

    Nah- just highly aware that a proper dress down can be had from a dainty woman- doesn't matter if it's 2011 or 1955 because I do assure you that the majority of women living during that time might have had vastly different ideas about their roles in the family but they were not complete doormats.

    The modern version of this ..well I could write the satirical modern version myself, would be just as difficult to obtain in spirit as this was.

    After teasing and funning around is done I can`t imagine very many men (at least around this area I live) who would really want a wife as described.
    I wouldn`t,it really doesn`t sound like a lot of fun to have more of a servant then a friend and soul mate.

    Don't go gettin' all mushy to try to BS these babes into believing that your the kind sensitive type. they only pretend to buy the hype till they get their hooks into you. They know we are all hormone driven pervs at heart .... so go find your man cards and redeal!...j/k
