The Good Wife’s Guide...

Have dinner ready. Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready, on time for his return. 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 a part of the warm welcome needed.

Prepare yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so you’ll be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your make-up, put a ribbon in your hair and be fresh-looking. He has 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 schoolbooks, toys, paper, etc. and then run a dishcloth over the tables.

Over the cooler 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.

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. Minimize 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.

Your goal: Try to make sure your home is a place of peace, order, and tranquility 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 if he 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 his 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 judgment or integrity. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will always exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him.

A good wife always knows her place.

"Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him"

haha translated into our times is "hunny, would you like a threesome? I found the perfect girl"

If Mrs. Hazard were to act in accordance with the "good wife guide" she'd soon be in danger of being the "good ex-wife." I could not tolerate such deferance of her own interests in favour of mine.

lol old post but always funny. I don't understand why women get genuinely offended at that. It was a stupid way of thinking, and it is no longer the world we live in, at least not in our society.

Personally, I'd hate a woman like that. And any guy who wants a woman like that is kind of a coward. I guess I just kind of thrive on a little bit of conflict though, and I would never want another person sharing their life with me to completely forgo the things she wants.

And in return for being a good housewife the husband must be the sole bread winner providing a roof, food, and any other money necessary. This is just as unrealistic in today's world. And believe me there are lots of women out there who use their men for their money and then turn around and refuse to be the submissive wife. To me thats the trade off.

The real problem is the fact that marriage is not a contact of love but one of business.

agreed. basically shes bought and paid for, so she really can't say anything

I could not disagree more. The "dutiful homemaker" is not simply some loaf who sucks up resources. The services preformed by housewifes or husbands are of profound value. The fact that one is not gainfully employed does not mean they have not earned a seat at the table when it comes to decision making and they have most certainly not waived their right to be an autonomous individual.

talking about the gold-digging trophy wives. not the housewives and stay at home moms.

STFU all of you! I long for those days, I want to be a kept woman - damn those fucking bra burning bitches!!!!

Now we just end up doing twice as much, fuck!

They earn their keep in other ways As long as all parties agree there is a balanced exchange between the parties then all is well.

Never said the dutiful homemaker is some loaf. Being a Mom, cook, housekeeper, wife is a FULL TIME job and deserves all the respect in the world. My point is that being a "kept woman" doesn't mean being a money sponge. It means that your provide for you man in other ways. The only problem I have with arragements like this is that it inherently creates a power structure of dominant and submissive. If this is what each person wants in their life and relationship then all the pwoer to them. I fully beleive that if your happy and loved it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks.
