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.
