Decades ago, which we’re sure will be a sore point in the history of humanity, it was believed that a woman or wife’s role, was just to make her husband happy. Thankfully, that has changed (for the most part) with time. But when it was something people were concerned about, Housekeeping Monthly was there “help” out, by giving a guide to being a “good wife.” Standouts include, “don’t greet him with complaints and problems,” “be happy to see him,” “be a little gay and little more interesting for him” and of course, “a good wife always knows her place.” In today’s more progressive society, it doesn’t matter who wears the pants, if anyone at all does, as long as a home is happy and healthy.
