housewivery

Reasons I would make a good housewife:

• I make excellent baked goods
• I LOVE DOING LAUNDRY
• I can't go to sleep if there's a mess
• I would be so good at organizing everything in the house
• I am a quality multitasker
• I can go to bed late and wake up early - and I could nap at the same time as the children!
• I could teach the kids how to read etc.
• I would be so good at paying bills
• I am a very efficient shopper
• I'm pretty good at being by myself for long periods of time
• I can drive a minivan
• I can be pretty crafty when need be
• I can repair clothing
• I'm excellent at remembering important dates

Reasons I would not make a good housewife:

• I can't kill bugs
• I'm afraid of uncooked meat and also eggs (but if they're mixed in cake mix they're okay)
• I would be sad that I wasn't putting my education to practical use
• I would definitely get in those typical arguments with my husband about how he doesn't do enough with the kids when he gets home from work
• I can't whistle
• Irons scare me
• I'm afraid of stereotypes
• I want to be able to dress up every day - but at home that would just make me a June Cleaver

Hmm. It's still a viable option but it's definitely not my life plan.
