The good wife charter - and how to be a good husband
The good wife charter - and how to be a good husband
Are you a good wife? There is something awkward about this question in the
first decade of the 21st century. In a postfeminist world, the word “wife”
on its own sounds quaint enough, and “good wife” conjures up images of
blissed-out 1950s housewives admiring their hostess trollies. Good wives are
what women had to be before we fought for the right to be good at something
else. In 2009, a woman wants to be good at her job, a good mother, a good
friend, a good daughter, good for her age, good in bed, but a good wife? Do
me a favour.
