I was wondering how long it would take, and who would make such a comment. Congratulations Moray.

It is a little disturbing considering the little adorable avatar beside your comment.


I can always be counted on to lower the tone sufficiently. I shouted have a speech bubble coming from my innocent little mouth!!

I see I'm the only backward-thinking happy housewife on the board.

It was a rhetorical question... and if it was a woman, it was not the most emancipated member of our gender.

I thought of a brainwashed "model housewife" (aaaargh, now this reminds me of "Stepford Wives"...)...

It's a measure of how much we've changed. Marriage is now viewed as a partnership, not hero worship.

Back then, women rarely went out to work, especially after having children. But even if a mum isn't working in the earning sense, it's way too much to ask to clean up the house, and the kids and have dinner ready and a gay smile painted on :)
