I am just the messenger and thought I would share it...


The women of today don't really realize their role in the home. I've been in many households visiting and I'm shocked at some ot the behaviour these women of today express in the Castle of their men!

I'm "OLD SCHOOL" and my house is a happy little kingdom due to the fact that my wife is old school as well..... We've been married 50 plus years and here's the way things are done round here.

You women out there should read the rules of HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE and you'll see things will be a lot better for you.

HERE'S THE DEAL.............. All You Babes of today..........(Read & Heed)



THE GOOD WIFES GUIDE ................. (from Housekeeping Monthly 13 May 1955)

* 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 been thinking about him and are concerned about his needs. Most men are hungry when they come home and the prospect of a good meal (especially his favorite dish) is part of the warm welcome needed.

* 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 or work weary people.

* 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.

* Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives.

* Gather up schoolbooks, toys, paper etc and then run the dustcloth over the tables.

* Over 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 for his comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction.

* Prepare the children. Take a few minutes to wash the childrens hands and faces (if they are small) comb their hair and, if necesssary change their clothes. They are little treasures and he would like to see them playing the part. Minimise all noise. At the time of his arrival eliminate all noise of the washer, dryer or vacuum. try to encourage the children to be quiet.

* Be happy to see him.

* Greet him with a warm smile and show sincerity in your desire to plaese 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.

* Make the evening his. Never complain if he comes home late or goes out to dinner, or other places of entertainment without you. Instead, try to understand his world of strain and pressure and his very real need to be at home and relax.

* Your goal: try to make sure your home is a place of peace, order, and tranquillity where your husband can renew himself in body and spirit.

* Don't greet him with complaints and problems.

* Don't complain if he's late home for dinner or even if he stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through that day.

* Make him comfortable. have him lean back in a comfortable chair or have him lie down in the bedroom. have a cool or warm drink ready for him.

* 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 judgement or integrity. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will always excercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him.

* A good wife always knows her place.

to recite such absurd quote from the 1950 is simply ignorant.that piece was proberly written back then by a controlling freak.thank God that most of us men don't see women in that way.

You know where you can shove your good housekeeping!

Jess you know me I am just having fun......and I do find it funny that something from 1955 can piss off anyone .....

Truth is Ron, there are still Neanderthals out there that expect that from a woman... and well... perhaps I may have been a tad rather ummm 'fired up', prior to reading that..
