    I'm so sick of the whining of trad babies about how slutty middle aged women pretend to be Catholics when they aren't because they are too drunk and won't marry them.

    Here's the criteria for choosing a good wife:

    -  a virgin  NO EXCEPTIONS
    -  between ages of 16-22 (a woman's fertility peaks at 25)
    -  still lives with parents
    -  has a strong devotion to Our Lady and the wearing of the Brown Scapular
    -  has verifiable hands on experience raising siblings (knows how to feed, diaper, bathe, nurse little children and babies)
    -  knows how to cook nutritious food from natural ingredients
    -  knows how to properly care for clothing (washing, mending, making)
    -  knows how to run a household without help from others
    -  is responsible with money
    -  has no debt
    -  is NOT a victim of childhood abuse (you will never have a normal marriage with someone who was abused)
    -  is NOT someone your friends consider "hot"

    There ya have it.  


    Hey, what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

    It's only fair that women get a Perfect Husband as well, if men are to expect some kind of 100% ideal or "Perfect Wife".

    Here ARE the criteria (plural) for choosing a good husband:

    - A virgin NO EXCEPTIONS
    - Younger than 30 (a man's physical strength and fertility peaks in his youth as well!)
    - Owns a house, preferably with a bunch of it paid off
    - Is not "underwater" on his house
    - Has a good job, making at least $80K a year but isn't in a line of work that adversely affects family life (truck driving, firefighting, military) and isn't compromising his Faith or Catholic living ideals.
    - Has a strong devotion to St. Joseph, Our Lady
    - Knows his faith well; ex-Seminarian preferred
    - Knows Latin decently well, so the kids can be taught (will be helpful for future home schooling)
    - Knows how to serve Mass, so he can teach his son(s).
    - Frequents the Sacraments, especially Confession
    - Is a well-rounded man, who can change a tire, handy enough to fix small problems around the house, plumbing, car problems, etc. and can cook for himself if the need arose.
    - Is organized, able to manage his time, and discipline himself so he doesn't waste time or pursue foolish things. Is able to control his emotions.
    - Is not prone to outbursts of anger.
    - Is responsible with money; has minimal student loan and other debt.
    - Has no credit card debt. Managed to buy a car when he was younger, so his car is paid off.
    - Is not a victim of childhood abuse (it might affect him as well)
    - Is not a playboy or one of the guys the girls chase after for superficial reasons.

    There ya have it.

  • I tried to keep the list "tit for tat".

    For example, I didn't add, "Is sensitive to the woman's needs" because there's nothing equivalent on the "perfect wife" list.

    I tried to just list things that were equivalents to what the men were seeking in the "perfect wife" thread.

  • The list Hatchc made was simply Catholic men traditionally expected.

    If you want what Catholic women traditionally expected, by all means, state it.

    But your list isn't it.

  • Now how about the COWARDS explain what they have against my post?

    Are you a misogynist or what?

    Can't the women have ideals as well? Or do they just have to settle for any schmuck that comes along, but the men get "only the best"?

    Come on, where's your sense of fairness?

    Explain to me how this isn't 100% fair, but instead it's mere pandering to females with feminist leanings. Do explain.

    I bet you won't say a word, because you're NOT A REAL MAN.

  • "Isn't prone to outbursts of anger"

    I recommend reading the part of The Legal Subjection of Men which explains quite clearly that a man getting angry, ever was enough for a woman in a country ruined by feministic "chivalry" was a sufficient pretext for a woman to claim cruelty and leave her husband.

    That's rich.

    Everything in my list is something women used to expect is most men they'd find to marry.

    They expected a man with an education, who was established, and who was a man that could take care of himself and his family.

    And women in Catholic countries certainly preferred and expected a man who could lead in matters of religion, and who himself was a good Catholic.

    All those items in my "list" merely go into specifics a bit.

    I already did explain what is wrong with your post.

    As it stands, I have nothing against it because no woman would be dumb enough to make such a list.

    I do have quite a bit against a twit of a father using it.

    We're talking about traditional standards.  Not things you make up that suit your fancy.

    Sure.

    No one is going to criticize a woman with a list like that, because we're not going to marry her, and wouldn't want to.

    The requirements of men and women are different.

    Not being a slut is a far cry from the requirements you're setting out.

    A real man would never attempt to shame men who point out that if he raises a slut she's not wife material.,

  • Hey TELE, why don't you post all these pearls of truth and wisdom from your own account?

    Oh, I know, you don't want to bear the consequences of your DRIVEL on your precious REP score.

    Tele, there's a reason you're not married yet, and it's not because of any feminist conspiracy.

    Maybe women want a real MAN to follow, and not someone who's afraid of having his rep score scratched a bit.

  • Tele, there's no difference between a woman wanting a decent Catholic man and a man wanting a decent Catholic woman.

    Men and women are NOT different AT ALL in this one particular.

    You want a woman who can cook, clean, teach, sew -- to save on expenses?
    I say a woman expects a man that can fix things, plumbing, car repairs, do his own oil changes, to save on expenses.

    How is that a double-standard? Seems pretty darn fair to me.

  • Catholic men of the past would have thanked their lucky stars to have decent, kind men to care for their daughters.

    That is the difference.  They think they're doing you a favor.

    Good luck to them with that attitude.

  • Your list is what modern women want. One example, wanting a younger man or refusing a man because of an age difference, even a significant one, is part of feminism. Women expecting men to be "at home & helping with the homeschool" is part of feminism. Men's duty to provide and protect take him away at times.

    Many families struggling would do well if husband went away to work.

  • It's not that the man has to teach homeschool classes during the day -- but wouldn't it help if the man of the house knew Latin?

    Wouldn't he be more demanding of his son(s), knowing that IT CAN BE DONE and he wouldn't be intimidated by the idea of learning a language?

    He could quiz his son, tutor him while they work outside, etc.

    It's about his EXPECTATIONS and CAPABILITIES, not necessarily having the husband punch in as a teacher during the day.


    The "younger" thing is not an absolute, but let's face it -- if women are "ideally" married between 16-22 then men are certainly "ideal" in their late 20's. They don't get any younger with age either.

    The time to set up a homestead is when you're still young. You can get married (or re-married, if your wife dies) in your 40's or something, but you'd better have your homestead set up by then. Your trees planted, buildings built, etc. because you're not a 20 year old anymore.

    I'm sure the women who were writing their names Mrs. Teles Phorus with a <3 are  now crossing him off because he posted on CI anonymously.
    This is silly.

    Of course not. But if he's this cowardly, "shrewd", etc. IRL, it would explain a lot.
