What do you think of the word Housewife?

[nmoira]

I'd prefer houseb*tch. :smilielol5:

 

I'm a little bored at the moment.... :leaving:

 

 

I'm feeling rather like a buxom housewench today. Low-cut top. :D

[MissKNG]

I call myself a stay at home mom. But housewife doesn't bother me.

Well at least you have clothes on.

 

I think my UPS guy concurs.

Now I'm leaning toward alewife...

I believe the PC phrase is that you "don't work outside the home". :D

 

I tried that one for a while. I quit using it after more than one person said, "oh, so you work at home?" "Well, yes, but not a business...I'm homeschooling my kids...never mind..."

 

I immediately think of the show Real Houswives of the O.C. :blush:

 

I haven't seen the show, but living in the OC, I've heard & read all about it. The ridiculous thing is that one season they wrote up bios in the newspaper of all the women. NOT ONE that season was a HOUSEWIFE! Half of them weren't married (divorced, at least one of them it happened during the show) - so that takes away the "wife" part. And almost all of them had a full or part time job - which makes them a realtor, or whatever, but not strictly a housewife.

 

Anyway that show makes me gag...I think all but one had had a booK job, all but one had blonde hair (really, we're not all blonde in the OC!)
