Well, that was back in the good old days of the ‘60’s, when most women didn’t work - they just stayed home and cooked and baked, and talked on the phone with their girlfriends, planned church functions, sewed, canned, and made sure the house was tidied up (and kids hair combed) before hubby got home from work.
I wouldn’t know how to act, staying at home doing all that WORK!! LOL!
