An interesting flip-flop is evidently occurring among senior citizen women, chronicled in this Who Needs a Husband? piece in the NY Times.
“… the men in our age group seem to want something quite different. They want a wife. They want what they had before, a woman in the house to do all the things that a wife is supposed to do — which is, to wrap it up under one big label, To Take Care of Them.”
Maybe I should send the article to both my mother and mother-in-law.
