Ladies - Totally OT - can't stop laughing

[Guest guest]

Dear Females,

Laughed so much I forgot to post the post - here it

is.............Love Penny

This is an actual extract from a Home Economics textbook printed in

the early 60's. Absolutely unbelievable. Men love it! Women can't

believe

it!

 

The Good Wife Guide.

 

Have dinner ready. Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a

delicious meal ready on time for his return from work. 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 favourite dish) is part of the warm welcome

needed.

 

Prepare yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so you will 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. 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 school books, toys, papers etc. and then run

a

dust cloth over the tables.

 

During the colder 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.

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 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. 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.

 

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 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 the 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 exercise his will

with fairness and truthfulness.

 

Once he has had a chance to have his evening meal clear the dishes

and wash up promptly. If your husband should offer to help decline his

offer as he may feel obliged to repeat this offer and after a long

working

day he does not need the extra work. Encourage your husband to pursue

his hobbies and interests and be supportive without seeming to encroach.

 

If you have any little hobbies yourself try not to bore him speaking of

these, as

women's interests are often rather trivial compared to men's. At the end

of

the evening tidy the home ready for the morning and again think ahead to

 

his breakfast needs. Your husband's breakfast is vital if he is to face

 

the outside world in a positive fashion.

 

Once you have both retired to the bedroom prepare yourself for bed

as promptly as possible. Whilst feminine hygiene is of the utmost

importance your tired husband does not want to queue for the bathroom as

he

would have to do for his train. But remember to look your best when

going

to bed.

 

Try to achieve a look that is welcoming without being obvious. If

you need to apply face-cream or hair-rollers wait until he is asleep as

this

can be shocking to a man last thing at night.

 

When it comes to the possibility of intimate relations with your

husband it is important to remember your marriage vows and in particular

 

your commitment to obey him. If he feels that he needs to sleep

immediately then so be it. In all things be lead by your husband's

wishes, do

not pressure him in any way to stimulate intimacy. Should your husband

suggest congress then accede humbly all the while being mindful that

a man's satisfaction is more important than a woman's.

 

When he reaches his moment of fulfilment a small moan from yourself

is encouraging to him and quite sufficient to indicate any enjoyment

that you may have had. Should your husband suggest any of the more

unusual

practices be obedient and uncomplaining but register any reluctance

by remaining silent. It is likely that your husband will then fall

promptly asleep so adjust your clothing, freshen up and apply your night

time

face and hair care products.

 

You may then set the alarm so that you can arise shortly before him

in the morning. This will enable you to have his morning cup of tea

ready

when he awakes.....................................
