expected Gini to take over that task---after all‚ he couldn’t wear wrinkled clothes to his new job‚ could he? Poking fun at the responsibilities involved in marriage is similar to the attitude presented in Judy Brady’s 1971 essay‚ "Why I Want a Wife."

Why I Want To Teach Why I want teach is a question as big as the sun. To teach is to pass knowledge and skill from one to another. For me to teach I am allowing my love for music to be passed to another student so that can carry on that passion.
