This is probably the "forward" of the fifties, you know like the stuff we forward nowadays making fun of the current situation, just being sarcastic!

Hi,

Well even if it was a 1955 guide I would think that some things would never change: things like MEN ARE MAFAGEE3 so let's try learning how to cook hehehe

Hi Salam,

This is good. How did you get this stuff, anyway?

I like the piece of advice stating that "his topics of conversation are more important than yours" ...

FROM URBAN LEDGENDS

The following is from a 1950's home economics textbook intended for high school girls, teaching them how to prepare for married life:


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



1. Have dinner ready: Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal - on time. 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 prospects of a good meal are part of the warm welcome needed.

2. Prepare yourself: Take 15 minutes to rest so you will be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your makeup, 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. His boring day may need a lift.

3. Clear away the clutter. Make one last trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives, gathering up school books, toys, paper, etc. Then run a dust cloth over the tables. Your husband will feel he has reached a haven of rest and order, and it will give you a lift, too.

4. Prepare the children: Take a few minutes to wash the children's hands and faces if they are small, comb their hair, and if necessary, change their clothes. They are little treasures and he would like to see them playing the part.

5. Minimize the noise: At the time of his arrival, eliminate all noise of washer, dryer, dishwasher or vacuum. Try to encourage the children to be quiet. Be happy to see him. Greet him with a warm smile and be glad to see him.

6. Some Don'ts: Don't greet him with problems or complaints. Don't complain if he's late for dinner. Count this as minor compared with what he might have gone through that day.

7. Make him comfortable: Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or suggest he lie dow

I don't see what the big fuss is all about. If a woman chooses to live that way to make her husband a happy man LET HER! I am a SAHM who does just that, makes her husband happy! So what? It makes ME happy doing it. He is the money earner, so the least I can do is make his life a little more comfortable.
