Wanted: Housewife in Atlanta
A friend of mine just got engaged and her fiance asked her to work on ending her career. She loves him very much but said that she is having a hard time wrapping her mind around the concept of housewife.
She fears her existence will become about shopping and domestic work. Clearly her idea of housewife is a bit distorted. I wondered why being a housewife seems so unappealing to women today?
Although my mother was a career woman, she seemed to enjoy caring for the family and my Dad. The thought of being a stay at home Mom or housewife sounds pretty awesome to me, personally. I believe there can be joy found in having a career or being a housewife.
What do you think of the idea of a woman leaving her career to please her husband? Is it unfair for men to want a housewife?
Guys, would you ever ask or want your wife to leave her job or career? What if she really enjoyed working?

cba, I checked out the article too, especially the middle portion, 3rd paragraph. Interesting detail if you read between the lines there. It was more there than I expected.

PR – Celisea, I am going to start calling you and just play a different individual sound, each call, without me speaking and hang up. Cows, Bulls, Tractors, truck engine, boat engine, door slamming, baby crying, water boiling etc. LOL I have to remember to block my number though.
Okay…call away…not sure what number you’re going to guess at…lol
I see you want me to move away from my “be nice and good” stance. Nothing doing…not moving
