Having a housewife more often at home also allows things to be prepared on time for the husband to get home so when he does finish work- it's finished. No more doing this at home or doing that, it's all done and basically it's just time for relaxing and fun.<br /><br />People just don't know what that's like anymore. They're constantly 'working' even at home when the chores are split between two busy people outside of traditional work hours. It sucks the quality time out of life.<br /><br />(By the way, I'm back! :) )Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811218606579843131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139017677124620997.post-8016215985697358592017-12-13T07:48:19.458-08:002017-12-13T07:48:19.458-08:00People used to starch bedsheets so that the dirt d...People used to starch bedsheets so that the dirt didn't cling to them and washed them only about once in 2-3 weeks, now they recommend doing it once or twice a week. Not that many people (women) do it nowadays, because I absolutely agree that many are lousy housekeepers and the big reasons behind it are entitlement and laziness. As for cooking, don't let me started, apparently eating well is patriarchal oppression, much better to never cook, eat junk and die from obesity and diabetes type 2. That'll show them!Sannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08124283361844607678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139017677124620997.post-18200939435545087302017-12-13T05:27:32.719-08:002017-12-13T05:27:32.719-08:00People also do SO much more laundry than they used...People also do SO much more laundry than they used to. One reason is that synthetic fibres start to stink if you do not wash them all the time and also the cut of clothes has changed. Blouses and shirts are really thight around the upper arm and armpit (I hate that), hence they get smelly more rapidly. <br /><br />But I must admit that many women are really louzy housekeepers. I know women who cannot really cook. In some slightly feminist lightweight novels (from 70's, 80's 90's) the heroine is often displayed unable to cook. And somehow that is not bad at all. Somehow it just proves that she is feminist and has a career. In more modern novels that isn't made clear, propably it is nowadays obvious that women making career cannot cook. Or wont. <br /><br />I have never understood that. I mean no matter how career -oriented one is, one has to eat. And one cannot eat outside every night. So are women just supposed to starve themselves in order to please men or what? Housewife Outdoorsnoreply@blogger.com
