My Ideal Wife
My Ideal Wife
Beautiful, wise, intelligent and open-minded, most people have these qualities enlisted in their minds for their dream wives. However, everyone looks to each of these characteristics according to his conceptions especially when we look to these words we will find them general and can be interpreted to many meanings and ways. My Ideal wife should not be exactly the same as me but there should be a good atmosphere of understanding between us because she is supposed to be my life partner not my opponent.
Beauty for me is not only the outer beauty because sooner or later it will be abolished but that inner beauty that comes from the kindheartedness. Sometimes I meet young women whose attitudes are marked by wickedness and slyness. Of course no one would wish to have any kind of relationship with such a person but the problem lies in finding out the truth about the one you love. A good wife should have enough wisdom to organize the domestic affairs. Sometimes the family fully depends on a decision that she might take, and a man always wants to make sure that things are going on well when he is not at home, and there is no one better than his wife whom he can trust with the stability of the family. This stability requires an intelligent wife who will act as if it was her husband who is acting; with the children and financial affairs.
Jealousy is a popular culture in our society and it has its benefits and disadvantages. Of course I do not want to live with any constricting rules and I will need to feel that my wife cares about me at the same time. This riddle requires an open-minded woman who can understand my needs and my actions to be solved and it also can be linked to the intelligence that was formerly discussed. Most men have some hobbies, habits and interests that do not usually meet half-way with women. A good wife should know about my interests because it can be impressing or depressing to

    In Jose Stone's, “A man's World” she said, “it would be nothing without a woman”. The moral and lesson of this story is to show people that sometimes we have to stop thinking about what we want and we need to think about what we need. This story teaches us that beauty isn't the most important aspects of a person. The knight realizing that it is more important to have someone that will be faithful, it made him value a person’s personality more than looks around and he gives his wife mastery over him.

    In the story “Wife of Bath's Tale” Sir Salvio chooses the old women that would always be faithful so he doesn't have to worry about her being with other men when he's out during war and other events. I would have chosen the same because I would have less stress and less things to deal with when I come back home after work. It would also be cheaper because the pretty one might run away so she would take half of my belongings and money, she would also go out with others so she might spend money on them to please them. And now a days make up can fix anything up a little. An honest and loving wife would be better than someone who wasn’t going to care if your troubled or having problems or not like you for who you are.…

    From birthing a child to taking care of cooking and cleaning, it is hard to imagine what life would be like if a woman was not held to generic standards. Judy Brady’s essay, “I Want a Wife,” shows complete satire of what a perfect, model wife would be like in the eyes of a man. She presents an image of someone who gets no breaks and succumbs to her husband’s every word. This someone, the model wife, is unrealistic but desired by some. The societal expectations of women in the 1970’s, when this essay was originally published, has influenced the rights of women today. There has definitely been improvement in women having more freedom to do whatever they choose to do, but generally speaking, women are still expected to be a wife who does everything for her children and…

    Sugar Daddy Thesis

    Nature is very cruel because it selects certain people to be more attractive than others. It would be a fairer world if every person looked like a Hollywood star. It would be even better if outward appearances were not that important. But none of us can deny that we are influenced by a person's good looks. Men in positions of power choose only beautiful women as wives and pass by the less than attractive. The "sugar daddy" thinks like those in power because he is influenced only by appearances. We should accept the way they both think because all men will imitate them if given the chance. Those of us that say: "inner beauty" is more important then external appearances are only fooling themselves. There is nothing as beautiful or important in this world as an extremely attractive woman. There are thousands of stories written about her loveliness. Few stories are written about inner beauty.…
