Oh, sheesh! This demerits/merits chart for the beleaguered wife of 1939 is enough to make me burn my bra, start spelling woman with a "y," and wear "soiled and ragged dresses" around town. No wonder she was "slow in coming to bed." She was trying to figure out how to sneak out the window so she could "flirt with other men at parties or restaurants."

why the heck is "wears red nail polish" a demerit? pretty trivial if you ask me.

According to this, I'm like the worst wife EVER. I guess night-owl agnostics with cold feet and red nail polish aren't very good spouses?

Can I have one of those for merits and demerits for what makes an acceptable husband? Hmm, should I include wearing red nail polish in the merits or demerits?

According to this, I get a negative 6.

This husband expects his wife to personally bring all of the children to church (presumably on Sunday morning), while he stays home and sleeps in late. Classic values!
