Excerpt

After reading the essay "Why I Want a Wife," I would agree with Judy Syfers that a wife is a person who is expected to do, and does, everything for her husband and family. I have had the experience of living with a self-professed male chauvinist pig for the past eighteen years. That man is my father and his expectations for his wife correspond closely to Syfers' list of a wife's duties.
