We at The (real) Stepford Wives Association feel strongly that providing a quiet home when our husbands return home from work is of utmost import. Before what we refer to as "zero" hour, we take a few moments first to make certain dinner is under control, our home is tidy, table set and his favorite beverage is chilled and waiting for him. During the shortened days of winter, we make sure our foyer is lit, porch light is on, soft lights or candles are lit (unscented only dears -- dinner and you should be the best smelling things in the house).
After our 'ducks are lined up,' we dash upstairs to retouch our makeup, ask nicely that children wash up for dinner. Sometimes we have been known to change our clothing, apply a dab of perfume, fix our hair, etc. the reality is this should only take a few minutes. We also slip into our sexy shoes.
Back in the kitchen, we keep the meal hot, listening carefully for the sound of the lock hitting the door.
When he arrives, we greet him warmly with his beverage. We help him off with his coat, take his briefcase and put those things away. If he asks any questions, "what's for dinner," we smile and answer him warmly. We always let him know how long before the meal. We freshen his drink, help him out of shoes, replacing them with his slippers. We keep the house quiet, we never discuss our day. We do ask them about their day. If the reply is a grumble we instantly let them know how thrilled we are to see them and have them home. We do not gush over them.
If dinner is more than a few minutes away, we offer our husbands an appetizer. Something to nibble on while they relax.
We serve them dinner, we do not worry about our meal, they always come first.
After dinner, we make sure our husbands are settled. Then we quietly begin to clean up, listening carefully in case they need us.
If our husband invites us to sit, we do and listen intently to whatever he wishes to share. If he mentions a coworker's birthday we offer to purchase a gift and card, or to bake a cake. If those are refused, we still make note of the day to remind him. There might be a social obligation coming up or an important meeting where he might need something cleaned.
If he wishes to simply unload about his day, we listen actively. When he's finished we offer to refill his beverage, hand him the remote control or whatever would please him and discretely and above all quietly, return to our chores. Depending on his mood, if there is something that does require their attention, it can be brought up, only after he is finished saying what he needs to say. Ask permission and don't just dive in with a laundry list of 'honey do' projects. Mention the one or two, which are most important or urgent. The rest can simply wait.
We go to bed, when our husbands do and dress for bed in whatever brings them the most pleasure. We open ourselves to our husbands for their pleasure only. If they are too exhausted from their day to make love, it is our job to offer alternatives, such as oral pleasures or being on top.
It is very important they are in control of the sexual act. Even if we are on top of them, they control the speed and how we move to maximize their pleasure -- not our own selfish pleasures. We have no sexual needs to be met and we feel most fulfilled and satisfied when they are happy and content.
