OMG. I usually delete forwarded emails...but this one I had to take a moment and breathe...then laugh...then get a little angry...then laugh again. Can you believe this is an actual article from Good Housekeeping (May 1955)? It is amazing to see how far "we" have come in the last fifty years, but it just goes to show what kind of craziness women had to tolerate and deal with. My favorite ones are "his topics of conversation are more important than yours" and "a good wife always knows her place." Oh, but "take 15 minutes to relax and put yourself together before he gets home to look refreshed" is also a pisser!
I hope JJ doesn't get any ideas...I know you won't honey! But some of these things I already do, right?...ha ha ha.
If you click on the image above you will be able to see a larger version of the article.

Unbelievable!!!!!!!! Some of the suggestions aren't so horrible but the wording and the reasoning behind everything, is just pathetic!!! Thanks for sharing the coolest and funniest things you find!
I agree, in concept, it's ok, for modern couples it can really work if it goes both ways...But the way it's presented is crazy. Hey 50 years from now, Cosmo articles will sound crazy too.
