What? Staying At Home and Helping My Husband Will Make Me Happier? No Way!

Wow, who would have thought? Apparently a new book has come out detailing a shocking new way for women to be happier, use their big old brains, and solidify their place in life. And that would be by….. staying at home supporting their husband in his work. And who do they hold up as the best current example of this? Michelle Obama! And hence the absolute ire of the feminists.

Now please forgive me if I am wrong here, but isn’t this pretty much what we Christians have been saying for, you know, ever?? Of course, when we say it we’re a bunch of old-fashioned women whose overbearing husbands have gotten the better of us and are stifling our creativity and smarts by making us stay home and do dull things like endless piles of laundry.

When some new book babe comes out using the First Lady as her best current example of this type of thinking, then wow! this is all new and brilliant. No wait, I should amend that to read Democrat First Lady. This is only new and fresh if you’re a liberal. Republican First Ladies would no doubt get the aforementioned old-fashioned description.

Ha! I guess if you read it that way, it is new and newsworthy. Only the headline is wrong, so I shall rewrite it correctly:

“Liberal women finally discover what everyone else has known for millenia: Standing by Your Man makes everyone happier.”

Here’s the article:

‘Quit work to help your husband’, says a controversial new book that has infuriated feminists

I really enjoyed the article. It was the funniest thing I’ve read in weeks.
