[Thinkingabout]

2. Oh, really, laughed all the way through.

[leftofcool]

4. If I started doing this after 40 years of marriage, hubby would think he was in the wrong house.

[jwirr]

5. NOW I know why my 50s marriage fell apart. By the way does anyone know where this came

from originally?

[ND-Dem]

14. I think it came from 2015. It appears to be a mash up of pictures from various sources

linked by a newly invented text.

the full thing is found on a right-wing site, which the photos copied here link to.

17. And why Valium was referred to as "mother's little helpers." nt

[jwirr]

21. Exactly. But seriously I don't think any of us back then were that bad. I suspect many of those pics

come from advertisements and if we had seen this as it is presented today we would have laughed. But that is not to say that much of that did not happen -just not all of it.

I am going to a wedding shower this month and may try to find a way of using this as a joke.

6. The "perfect dinner" looks like boiled armadillo fresh from the interstate.

Warning, ladies: your man may not approve if the roadkill souflee you slaved over all day, gives him leprosy.

[Kath1]

7. Yes.

And that is why so many of them are single with no girlfriend or divorced!

[Cleita]

8. Yuck. I had classes on this back in the day.

Thank god I was still expected to know English, math, Latin and other boy stuff besides.

[LiberalElite]

20. This reminded me of a gem from the '60s - Grammy award winner

[frogmarch]

30. Hey, little girl, comb your hair,

fix your makeup...♪♫

No.

I'm glad those days are gone. At least they are in my little world, but then I'm not a republican.

[annabanana]

31. yep.. that and

[LiberalElite]

32. Marvin Gaye - I'll be Doggone - esp. at 1:50: (It's just one line)

[Arugula Latte]

9. One of the weirdest my-how-times-have-changed aspect of this is

the little boy in the first picture -- dressed in his suit for the family dinner!

[2naSalit]

10. FTS!!!

F that Sh*t. And it appears to be exactly what the r's expect.

And THIS one on particular...





Obviously they don't think women are anywhere near equal and barely human at that.

[tularetom]

11. I was 9 years old in 1950 and it sure as hell wasn't like that in our house

For those of you who weren't around, not every family was like the Cleavers or Father Knows Best.

[Cleita]

12. I was ten and that's for sure they weren't the Cleavers or Father Knows Best.

But we liked watching those shows because we wanted our families to be like them. By that I mean, we wanted them to have the nice clothes and homes. The truth was is that mom although she baked cookies and made dinner, usually wasn't all that made up and put together. She was tired and had a beer or drink in her hand before dad came home, usually rather dirty and tired, and he had a beer or drink before the the thrifty casserole dinner. There wasn't much TV to watch, if you had a TV. Maybe you listened to radio and went to bed pretty soon after. But I didn't find it a bad life.

[ND-Dem]

13. as far as i can see that's a mash up of photos from various sources with an invented text.

[littlemissmartypants]

15. Clean up the clutter...

My version would include getting a Brazilian wax. Just sayin'

[MiniMe]

16. Ouch!

[NickB79]

24. Well, just call me a hoarder, I guess

And bring on the clutter

[littlemissmartypants]

35. Rapier wit. I like it. nt

[Behind the Aegis]

18. LOL!

#1 I take care of by texting him an hour or so before he comes home, unless I don't feel like cooking, then he fends for himself.

#2 "Be well dressed" Sometimes I am wearing something other than my undies when he gets home.

#3 Now, this rule, I got this one down pat! I am gay as hell and no one would ever call me "boring."

#4 Yeah, sometimes I am good at this, more so than him. Plus, I outsource!

#5 Um, it is ME that needs to be comfortable otherwise things get real dicey real quick!

#6 "Peace of Mind" Ever try to quiet down 4 Chihuahuas?!

#7 "Smile" Yeah...that can mean multiple things...sometimes, it means "this is gonna cost you!"

#8 If I waited for him to talk, there would be nothing spoken in our home!

#9 "Manners" He better be interested in what is happening with me!

#10 "Freedom" He better call or text me! I will go looking for him! It won't be pleasant when I find him.

#11 "Comfortable"

#12 I think I peed myself from laughter!

It is funny to look at these and make fun like I did, but there is a profound sadness and dismay that some still feel this is "appropriate" and how "a lady should act." Marriage is a partnership...ours is!

[kpete]

22. thank you

for those LOLs


peace,
kp

[treestar]

19. !2 is just so insulting

I wonder who wrote that - man or woman? Women could say these things to, to younger women.

[mercuryblues]

23. When I

read the title, I thought it was going to be an instruction manual on how to get all those republican jobs out of my uterus.

[pipi_k]

25. Screw that shit!!!

My first two marriages lasted less than five years each even though I followed most of those rules.


This time around, I'm a whole different person and Mr Pipi appreciates a challenge, much as he would never admit it.


We just celebrated 20 years together.

[AuntPatsy]

26. My upbringing in in black and white

[daleanime]

27. Kind of scary to think that some folks read this....

without laughing.

[Faux pas]

28. Lol

when I was married, my husband was the clutter. All those examples are the reason I couldn't watch Mad Men, I lived that nightmare why would I want to watch it on the tv?

[FLPanhandle]

29. If my wife did this, I'd get really suspicious

Beside, I married a person, not a servant.

[MosheFeingold]

33. I be worried I was about to be poisoned. n/t

[locks]

34. I always heard

we were supposed to meet him at the door wrapped in cellophane.
