Best friend.
If we can be that first, no problems.
No one-upping, no superiority complexes, no wanting to outdo him; letting him be a man. Ideally, I'd be a mom first and he'd be, well, the man. Old fashioned isn't as bad as it sounds I guess. Sure would be good for our kids!
Now the guy will say "You need to get to work...find a better job." (A friend totally supports hers -- yeah, I guess they're equals. She wears the pants in that house! I think she's more manly than he is!)

Gone are the days of barefoot and preagnant, along with the Leave it to Beaver, "June what's for dinner" way of life. Our economy is built on 2 income households, few women have the option NOT to work.
For you single women out there, would you give it all up, the job, the independence and all the trappings if given the chance to marry a strong and succesful, but painfully old fashioned man? He would love and cherish you, be kind, affectionate and attentive to the children. He would also insist on bearing any burdens and making all the important decisions for the family. He would want a wife to be obedient and supportive, You'd be expeced to keep a tidy house and have dinner ready with a smile when he gets home.
Just curious how many women out there want to meet and marry a provider and a "daddy" figure versus a partner, and equal contributor.
Up to a point. Obedient is where you lost me. Other than that, I love doing things for the right man, yes, even "waiting" on him. And other things I don't consider a chore if he gives as much as I do in a relationship--and I do give a lot. I want him to feel as special as he makes me feel.
Maybe you should try juggling or something. Spice up your act a little; make it a little less boring.
Or just smack em silly whenever they start to yawn and nod off...
If Jane's dad is available I guess I could make the sacrifice.
Seriously though. If the man forces me to take his paycheck every week and pays all the bills, I would have to do it. I would dress in sexy lingerie on our day/days of the week and when he comes home from work on special occasions ,I would lead him to the bathroom for his bubblebath and wash him here and there.
The meals will be either homemade or restaurant delivered. No need to dress up so we can go to a fancy restaurant, I'll get our meals delivered.
And if he wants kids, then he will take care of them when the nanny goes home. I will sacrifice for him and give him a child or two. And yes, I want a cat.

LOL....I'm with you but I say restaurant delivered all the time, or the nanny can do it (hire one that cooks and cleans too, my friend did it!!) I already have a cat though...
I grew up in a two-parent home where my mom was the head of the household and worked and its hard for me to even imagine allowing someone to financially support me. I was taught young to make my own money and to create financial independence for myself.
Can't even see it any other way.
