A fictitious take on becoming a 50's housewife.
http://hubpages.com/hub/A-Day-in-the-Life-of-a-50s-Housewife
I confess,that in my darker days of struggle, I've thought about being a 50's housewife . Were they really Stepford-like, robotic creatures under the economic, social and political thumb? What would a day in the life of a 1950's housewife really be like..? Cue music and fade-out for dream sequence....
(Of course, as in any age, just what sorts of freedoms and privileges you enjoy has a lot to do with economic status but since I want to enjoy myself, I'll opt for a comfortable, middle-class fantasy).
