The sock thread made me think of this quiz from another site:

I got a -26.

17, but then I don't have a husband/partner/boyfriend /significant other or kids...

I have a score of 39. Which makes me a poor 1930s husband.

The question I have now is what exactly makes a good 1930s husband?

I got a big fat 92. I don't know how I feel about that. I'll let my husband know the next time he says something about 'good old days'

I got the following:


83

As a 1930s husband, I am
Very Superior


Scoring:

0-24 - Very Poor (Failure)
25-41 - Poor
42-58 - Average
59-75 - Superior
76+ - Very Superior

You beat me Mom-H. But not too bad. :D


I really liked the one that said:

Rolls in bed covers - Pulls them off wife.
:lol:

Guess what I checked there. :D :D

I am a "failure". They are kind of harsh with the words that they choose to use to describe you with on this test. :p

Wow, all the women here seem to be failure as potential wives. Perhaps you should tell your potential future husbands. :p :lol: You know, accuracy in advertising. :D

Well, I checked the box that said I would have dinner ready on time (or whatever that one said :) ). So, doesn't that count for something?? :)

Of course, I have to admit that I was solely thinking of myself when I was considering checking that one. I was thinking about when I would want to eat dinner. I generally do eat at the same time everyday. But he doesn't need to know the truth. He is still getting fed! :p

LadyW

49 Average.
Of course, I'm not married and so I was thinking hypothetically.
That will do; I'm rather glad I'm not in the 1930's...

Maybe this could be my new pick-up line at the bar... "Hey baby, I'd make a very superior 1930's husband." :lol:

As I have never had a spouse or anything (and don't plan to) I solved it according to what I would do if I ever had one and here are the results :p
I expected even worse seeing that I have shown in all house-work related options how much allergic I am to it and there were many of those. A very unwilling person in this field I guess. Reminds me of what I used to say as a little girl, "I will marry any that person who would do all the house-chores for me." :D


35

As a 1930s wife, I am
Poor

Since I have taken the quiz by imagining myself as a 1930's wife, which is not very likely, I find nothing wrong with trying the husband's side. :lol:


48

As a 1930s husband, I am
Average

I saw that you did this and you gave me the inspiration to try it out. After all, I am a failure as a wife. So I figured that I might as well see how I would do as a husband. :p Here are the results:

99

99!!!!

I failed as a wife but I am "very superior" as a husband! My jaw just dropped when I saw that score! How is that possible?!? :p

since some of the women have taken the husband's test, I decided to as well.
Guess what ? I would make a superior husband. I scored a 60
As a wife I only scored a 45

I got a 115 as a husband. I'm shocked because I leave the dresser doors open and hang clothes on door knobs! Do these things make me Very Superior?

I'm going to answer as if I were my husband now!

Did you take the test in his name or did he actually do it himself? If that's out of his own choosing, then he must be quite a man's man. ;)

Eats onions, radishes or garlic before dates or going to bed

I took it for him- maybe I can get him to do it himself later tonight

It will be interesting to see the difference between the score he gets taking the test himself and the score he/you got when you answered for him....
Is he an even better 1930's spouse than you think ;)

I should look at the wife's questions. I answered truthfully and I am just moderately polite and considerate.

As a wife, I didn't do as we as for being a husband.
94

As a 1930s wife, I am
Very Superior


:sick:Please tell me this was an awful thing to do even in the 30'.:lol:

That was a normal thing to do then, as now, but both husband and wife should eat such things.

I got a 31, I would be a poor 1930's housewife.

Somewhat glad about that, it would have been a little scary if I scored higher.
