In "Why I Want a Wife‚" Brady offers hypothetical criteria for an ideal wife in a satirical commentary on how the work of wives is often taken for granted. The humor of the essay lies in its structure: on the surface it seems to accept the criteria it puts forth‚ while the meaning actually operates in the recognition that the narrator is being sarcastic.

you know what it feels like to be homeless? I don’t know what it feels like‚ and I don’t think anybody should should know how it feels‚ especially children.

more than playing softball. I have never been the girl with a cannon for a throwing arm nor have I been dubbed as the team’s ‘power hitter’ with five home runs in a single season‚ but that has not stopped me from seeing my true potential and recognizing what strengths I do have to offer.

We have been free for a very long time‚ but it hasn’t always been like that. Ever since Christopher Columbus arrived in the new world‚ I have had more freedom. The slaves during this time had no freedom. They were only allowed to work and earn a small amount of money‚ until they were allowed freedom.

Why I want to become a Teacher Becoming a teacher has been a life-long dream of mine since I was in grade school. I remember sitting in Mrs. Lawrence’s 5th grade classroom wanting to be just like her. I had planned to go away to college the fall after my high school graduation but sometimes life has other plans for you.
