There is nothing on this earth I would not do for a woman who behaved like that.

I would kill myself in overtime to provide her with a good home, food and clothes, tuition, her own car, etc. I would promptly accomplish any chore, assure her personal time with friends and time off of taking care of the kids every day.....and maybe this is over the top, but I would even pay attention to her complaints :2razz:

Yeah, a long way down. That's to bad.

Even though I had to use the "zoom in", three clicks to read it, I would rather have one of the new robot Babes, I'm saving up for.---I Kid Women a lot, but they are still real people with real emotions and personalities. . I don't want a Stepford wife.
 
Just like i cant remember his name but a slave wrote something along the lines of the worse thing that happened to me was learning to read.I think there is alot of lonely middle aged women out there and middle aged men who would be happier in that kind of a situation.

I know most people on here wont agree but you wouldnt be on here if you didnt have an interest in the more complex.I think there is alot of people who arent.

I don't think that's an "actual sex education book from the 60s", Dave; that photo is maybe circa WW2 era. Maybe.
I think it may be a legitimate text, but I believe it's probably from, at latest, the late 40s or early 50s.
At that time, many women who attended college were going for degrees in "home ec", and much of the curriculum focused on this sort of smarmy "how to please your man" advice.

I think Betty Friedan quotes this text almost verbatim in The Feminine Mystique, but she identifies it as being from the late 1940s.
The 60s were a very different era, and I think this sort of advice was pretty passe by then (at least in the US; and I think the UK might've been even a little more progressive than us across the pond).
Honestly, though, that text could've been published at any time, from the mid-1800s (or earlier) up until the early to mid-1950s. This sort of material was common. Popular magazines of a century ago, like Ladies Home Journal, are filled with articles of this sort.

1960s, though? I can't say I buy that.

If I had a wife like this, I would probably be bored of the marriage in under the year. Whats the point of spending your life with someone if they always make it all about you?

I want a woman with fire, passion, someone who can teach me something about life, someone who will disagree with me when I am being stupid, someone who will tell me to stfu when I am being irrational. I want a woman who has their own goals and their own interests. Not a maidservant, but a friend, a companion, and an equal.

Because you in turn make everything about her, and you are each a blessing to each other.

Men tend to become like little puppies to affectionate and supportive wives.
 
:rofl

Thankfully my husband and I are quite voracious in bed and sex usually happens right after he gets home from work while dinner is cooking.

Nothing like following up good sex with good food.

You're just mad 'cuz I shut you down in that gun thread :mrgreen:
 
Any of us who were around in the sixties know this is from an era in time quite before us.
 
The page is more likely from the '50s or earlier, but it is probably real. I wonder how many girls listened to that sort of thing?

Back then,

Birth control was highly controversial. Condoms were sold with a caveat: "For prevention of disease only," and kept out of reach of teens.

Girls weren't supposed to "like it", at least not good girls. Those other girls, the ones that single guys were more likely to chase might, but not the one you wanted to take home to mother.

Females were not supposed to try to initiate sex.

Note that the "sex education text" couldn't even print the word sex.

Today, it is good for a laugh. Then, it was supposed to have been serious.

Either that or the guy will begin to feel like he deserves the special treatment and come to expect it.

Its a common part of the culture down here for men to not eat unless the girl fixes his plate, even on her birthday.

I have seen men who are clearly more stupid than their wives micromanage them, make them feel worthless, and get onto them about the slightest thing when clearly they don't know WTF they are doing in life (and in are in the majority of cases, abusive as well)

Besides, it would still be boring to have someone lose their personality in the service of you. If I wanted that, I would get a dog.

My wife is very affectionate and supportive without being a total :kissass

You're just pissy with me because I live on a higher plateau of thought than you - and I have a *****. :mrgreen:
 
I though sex education in the 60s was lynchings and shot gun weddings.

Seeing a few of those would teach you right away everything you needed to know about having sex before marriage.

True - but many women seem to forget this and expect communication/emotional intimacy from the man without giving an ounce of respect in return.

Marriage is a two way street: if you want something good, you had better be willing to do your part as well.

Regardless, I think there are a few good ideas in that article but overall, I think it strips the woman of any sort of personality or zest. I do know, however, that when my wife pampers me, I'm willing to return 10-fold. Demonstrations of love and respect reciprocate and build on each other. That's part of the reason why we have a very active and very healthy physical/emotional relationship, even after 3 young kids.

You're a virgin? JK, but a woman slut wife like that would probably be the one thing on this earth that could possibly make me turn gay. And I ain't kidding.

Yeah, a long way down forward. That's to bad awesome.

Yep.

That article doesn't encourage women to support their husbands. It basically encourages them to do everything in their power to make men turn gay - hence the feminist revolution of the 60s. This was secretly one of their weapons.
