Men’s View of an Ideal Wife

Men\'s View of a Good WifeJust a few decades ago, feminists could only dream of gender equality. While their dreams have come true today, the men’s view of the ideal housewife hardly changed. According the latest poll, most men want to have a “traditional” wife who would make a great housewife. As for women, they want men respect their opinion and support the family financially.

    Females need to merely obey their master.

    All else follows that.

    Support the Females as Property Movement.

    Save yourself, save society and save the girlies from the tremendous burden they have been required to bear since being allowed to enter general adult society.

    Some historians believe the burden commenced in 1920 when females were granted the general country-wide privelege of voting.

    Sadly, as females gained various rights and priveleges their inability to accept the accompanying responsibilities has harmed those females, males and society as a whole.

    The emotion-laden generally irrational female of the human species has fallen short of adult expectations.

    We must remove the enormous burden from female shoulders for the good of all.

    Admittedly, there IS a very small percentage of females who ARE capable of bearing the burden of adulthood in our modern society so exceptions will be made for those few.

    However, easing females out of the requirements of being full-fledged adults and re-assuming their roles of yore will be a blessing in many ways and will assuredly improve the female’s general happiness.

    OBBOP, what planet are you living on? What an insulting bunch of garbage.

    Obbop, HAHAHAHHAHA, seriously. Crack kills! Lay off the drugs!

    Obbop, We juggle families with careers, we start puberty and sexually and mentally mature well before our male counterparts. Voting is not a privelage, it is a right.
    You may view females as the air-headed naiive little girls that need to obey their masters, but take this into account. We bewitch you with our feminine charms, we ensare you with a taste of what could come and you keep coming back for more. The more unattainable we are, the more thrilling the idea of securing us seems. Soon we have you on your knees proposing marriage and love. Now tell me, who’s the real master?

    I read Obbop’s comment as satire…do you people also think that “A Modest Proposal” was actually recommending eating babies?
