Please answer the title question with as many points as you can come up with. What interpersonal dynamics and actions would make the husband the happiest? Additionally, what would the ideal husband be like, and how should he treat his wife?

That appears to be Betty Brosmer who later changed her name to Betty Weider and was partner in a pretty successful fitness empire.

22 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. 23 For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. 24 Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.

25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, 26 that He might [a]sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, 27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. 28 So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. 30 For we are members of His body, [b]of His flesh and of His bones. 31 “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” 32 This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

Patience, caring, knows when I want to be left alone, and knows how to make a man feel like a man.

No such thing

Although that girl in the pic fits the bill physically...I’ve never had a woman with a waist that tiny....

It’s a cliche but if a woman follows biblical scripture about marriage it’s a darn good path

Sadly that ship has sailed in this world for now

Women today are raised to think they simply have to be more than a wife...and mother

Career is God

It’s sad....their instincts correct some of it but often it’s too late

It’s incredible to me

I watch some southern reality shows with my not quite ideal but good wife

These pretty sweet girls simply hook up and screw anyone they are physically attracted to

Then they push push for a man who’s a good earner above all

All the while trumpeting how independent they are and capable and all that roar rhetoric

They are lost

They want Brad Pitt looks and daddy....and subservience

No building a life together through work and. Sacrifice

No it’s I’ll marry you if you can immediately provide the life daddy did and maybe I’ll give you a kid or two...two at most

I’m such a prize ..I’m 32 and I’ve slept with 50-100 guys

But hey I did cotillion ..

Go Bulldogs...rah rah

In order....

1) An actual woman, a female, two X chromosomes

2) a Christian, not a “liberal Christian” but someone able to give an uncompromised account for what she believes, who prefers Scripture to having views accepted by society

3) a good sense of humor (with me she’ll need one)

4) young enough to have a family (likes kids)

5) intelligent

6) good looking

7) likes cats

8) since she needs to think I’m a catch: temporary non-recurring insanity when we meet

Proverbs 31:10-31

In principle the noble wife. Allegorical yet applicable for today. It is not a description of a servile woman, who does not act unless her husband
give her the go ahead.

Be the wife you'd want to come home to.

Feed them, do them, love them, make them feel wanted. It's pretty intuitive and the returns are fabulous.

If she reads cosmo, vogue, vanity fair or rolling stone, she can pack up and get out.

“No Comment....for my health’s sake.”

Didn’t I hear you say, “A woman’s place is in the home and she should go there immediately after work!!!”

I treat my wife like an angel. She may actually be one. Dressed up as a Latina Morena.
