Because it clearly showed that there are two types of people,
type1 thinks
that the wife who decide to do the house work and make every thing ready for her husband using what ever facilities she has such as maid or no maids is a slave.
type2 thinks
that the wife who decide to do the house work and make every thing ready for her husband using what ever facilities she has such as maid or no maids is an excellent wife.
Other than this I must say that the excellent wife, is the wife which understand her husband, relief his stress when he is angry, ....etc.
same goes for the excellent husband.
At the end both the husband and the wife are responsible for the success of the marriage life.
Ladies and gents, this is in the FUNNIES and should be "funny", not to be taken seriously. This was presumably made up for womans day, not sure which year. So lighten up everybody.
As I said earlier .. I don't believe it's real . Having said that , the discussion shows that there are different opinions - so it seems that one size does not fit all and what works for one may not for the other ..
My bad Fubar. I believe Speed ( or diet pills as they were called then) were quite popular as well. Keep that slim figure AND get all your housework done quick as a bunny!
i thought this site can unite and learn people to develop and grow in an environment full of orchestrated personality and open for the opinion and side of the story of each individual without seeing these kind of reactions in the whole essence of it. but i think i am mistaken. its a subject i just put my own side of the story and it does not reflect the opinion of others or individualistic approach of anyone.
Don't just blame valium... plenty of housewives were abusing phenacetin in the 60s as well. And then there were the stories about women enjoying the spin cycle, to help them ease their way through their tedious, meaningless lives.
MBR, it was because all these housewives were popping loads of Valium and drinking the cooking sherry whenever they got the chance. Pills and Booze makes every housewife a happy wife.
wow xedesmarie...if only all women were like u....
@gore yo my point wasnt wether u agreed or not...its jus tht i thought this article put them in a spot cuz seriously im sick and tierd of the tht QL has been hijacked by these over zelous house wives.....sheesh!!
if you are a devoted wife to your husband and children, you will not think as being a slave whenever wake up in the morning early to prepare food and prepare their things for work and school rather its a marital duty as part of what you have vowed for. being a wife to your husband and a mother to your children is incomparable that no career can ever surpass. it is the essence of being a woman.
SA, why does she not deserve for her husband to make a good home for her but she is expected to make a good home for him regardless of how she is treated - it is contradictory and VERY old fashioned, wake up and smell the 21st century, even in this region.
I just wonder how a house can be a wonderful place is the woman is unhappy about being treated like a servant. Sounds like an awful environment to raise kids in.
Because in this case she will not be deserved to be a queen, or in other words she will not be fitted to be a queen, and non fitted queen will spoil her kingdome.
The house is like is made of foundations and if one of these foundations is weak then at the end the house will fall down, same for the marriage life.
And by the way I have put a link for you on your thread The big bang for website which has 800 articles, each article is maybe 2-3 pages, it is up to you and others to look if they want.
Joke of the century: Which is better a woman who makes her house a fantastic place to live in..?Answering your question: The better way is when a man makes the house a fantastic place to live in. Then she can be a princess or a queen. Right, SA?
Why would the house be miserable if the maid does the cleaning? I know having a maid makes my life and my husbands life much easier, and therefore we are both happier for it. Rather than fighting over who does what household chore.
gtrman, I posted this as i found it FUNNY, and do not think that it is right at all. I do not agree to what is written, in my household we are both equal.
total respect to the dude who wrote this and the ladies who understand what this is all about......
nya nya nya....all them ladies here nagging by thinking its "cool" and "hip" to disagree and be "independent".....seriously no wonder they were lesser divorces and marriage problems back then.....ay yo gore thnx a gazzilion for the post!
I agree jjj75, both my wife and i work, I do all the cooking in the house... she always has dinner and always has breakfast in the morning, absolutley nothing wrong with that.
Marriage ---> Family ------> good family -------> no problems ------> healthy environment -----> good society --------> better country
The marriagle is a balance between the husband and the wife, it is based on understanding each other.
The smart women will not disturb her husband for silly reasons like it is 10:00 PM and he is sleeping and she comes to make her hair with this noisy device at 10:15 PM in the same room, she can do it the next day when he goes for work.
Life is about doing things at the correct time.
I have a question to all of you who disagree on this post, how the wife will be a slave if she wake up before her husband and make the breakfast ready for him?
Which is better a woman who makes her house a fantastic place to live in or a woman who throws every thing on the maid and the house will be miserable place to live in?
what a very arrogant, conceited, immodest, anti-feminist book..as if that woman have no rights at all..i really thank God that i was born in a country where women has and equal rights like man..what a male-chaunist p*g...
I doubt whether this is real.. BUT .. there is no harm in ladies taking note ..
"Should your husband suggest congress then agree 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 isencouraging to him and quite sufficient to indicate any enjoyment that you may have had."
You are probably right about that.. Perhaps the author meant 1860 and not 1960.. I guess then it would be appropriate, right? My grandma was 30 years old in 1960 and had 5 kids but I am sure even she did not put up that kind of crap with my grandpa.. And they were in India..
Kareena74 - no it did not happen, the 60's were a time of liberation, I know my mother was in her 20's in the 1960's and she would no more have put up with this than I would now (BTW she is a lawyer, so no messing with her).
Just look at the hairstyle and clothes, I think that is a bit of a giveaway as to the decade.
errrr if that is the 60's she has a very edwardian (turn of the 19th/20th century) hairstyle and clothes. Not sure if this is from the 60's, seemds doubtful
This book did what it was intented to do, I am speechless. I can see how happy the woman in the picture is....NOT. I am forwarding this to my mom and sisters so they can have a laugh too.

Ramadan Kareem
Hmmm I would be interested to get a range of contemporary Middle Eastern female perspectives on that piece of text - for comparative purposes.
Don't just blame valium... plenty of housewives were abusing phenacetin in the 60s as well. And then there were the stories about women enjoying the spin cycle, to help them ease their way through their tedious, meaningless lives.
Yes. Don't question anything EVER.
or what? Are yopu all questioning the behavior of our parents? They had their time, we have ours, so let's leave it that way!
MBR, it was because all these housewives were popping loads of Valium and drinking the cooking sherry whenever they got the chance. Pills and Booze makes every housewife a happy wife.
called making women think this is all they want in life in order to be manipulated by men so they can do what they want
wow xedesmarie...if only all women were like u....

xedesmarie - can see you have swallowed that hook, line and sinker. Called brainwashing.
Maybe your essence xedesmarie, but not mine. I have WAY more going on in my life than cooking, cleaning and pushing out babies.
if you are a devoted wife to your husband and children, you will not think as being a slave whenever wake up in the morning early to prepare food and prepare their things for work and school rather its a marital duty as part of what you have vowed for. being a wife to your husband and a mother to your children is incomparable that no career can ever surpass. it is the essence of being a woman.

SA, why does she not deserve for her husband to make a good home for her but she is expected to make a good home for him regardless of how she is treated - it is contradictory and VERY old fashioned, wake up and smell the 21st century, even in this region.
Fubar, that's what valium and wine are for, then every wifes a happy wife.
I just wonder how a house can be a wonderful place is the woman is unhappy about being treated like a servant. Sounds like an awful environment to raise kids in.
And a woman's part in the foundation is based on cooking, cleaning and popping out babies, right SA.
Because in this case she will not be deserved to be a queen, or in other words she will not be fitted to be a queen, and non fitted queen will spoil her kingdome.
The house is like is made of foundations and if one of these foundations is weak then at the end the house will fall down, same for the marriage life.

SA - if the house is not tidy or dirty and it does not bother the wife, but it bothers the husband, I suggest the husband does something about it.
Why would the house be miserable if the maid does the cleaning? I know having a maid makes my life and my husbands life much easier, and therefore we are both happier for it. Rather than fighting over who does what household chore.
what does equal mean if your house is miserable place and like a rubbish.
I liked this advice in which a mum said to her daughter be for your husband like a land he will be like a sky for you,.....,etc.
The whole idea is that both should treat each other equally and respectively.
and vice versa, the most important thing is that both understand each other and agree on the common goals.
Be for your wife what you want her to be for you, if not then do not criticise her.
No one answered the second question yet.
The joke of the century will be if LLP answers one of them.
gtrman, I posted this as i found it FUNNY, and do not think that it is right at all. I do not agree to what is written, in my household we are both equal.
gore - wish you were my husband
If it wasn't so true (see SA and others) it would have been THE JOKE of the week on QatarLiving!
SS, who said the author was a male (to call him a male chauvinist p1g) or is this directed at me the poster?
total respect to the dude who wrote this and the ladies who understand what this is all about......

My husband makes me breakfast in the morning. ;)
I agree jjj75, both my wife and i work, I do all the cooking in the house... she always has dinner and always has breakfast in the morning, absolutley nothing wrong with that.
I work, so what about the husband making me my breakfast SA - that would be nice
brit, you nailed it down. No shouting! And even if you didn't have any enjoyment, moan!

no point in coming again... it wasn't allowed the first time around;-p
Gee SA... you allow your wife any kind of enjoyment?
I doubt whether this is real.. BUT .. there is no harm in ladies taking note ..

I think you mean "men were much happier then". Women certainly weren't.

15th :o(
Seems like she is his slave rather than a wife.. Can't believe that it used to happen in England just 50 years ago..
Yes SA, what century are you living in?
ooooh I like it..
This is called, European culture,,,, by the way... when u got freedom ladies...(Europe & US)..
There you are, girls! That's an absolutely fantastic comment!
A great message to those married women who forgot some of the most important golden rules.
What? come again? What a crap!
ok, rizks , am a little slow today. I see now.
errrr if that is the 60's she has a very edwardian (turn of the 19th/20th century) hairstyle and clothes. Not sure if this is from the 60's, seemds doubtful
