By the way, note that "failures" is in parenthesis next to "Very Poor". If you score that low, do you really need to have it rubbed in? Ouch.

How do you match up?
We were looking at this at work today. There's an article on this website that shows a Marital Rating Scale, or a quiz basically for how good a wife you have (or are). A psychologist in the 30's made it up, and although it definitely shows the way things were back then, he also admitted to having a little bias in the scoring. Now if you're a woman and read through it, just a warning, it's appalling! And amusing. I'm sure AJ would find it hilarious. But I tried to take this quiz and let's just say, I didn't do too well. I mean I know the test is dated, but come on..so I added up all the possible points, and there's NO way you can get an over-average score. So here's the question: Are there missing pages to this test, or is it set up so that no woman could possibly get a high score?

There are missing pages. You can see the rest of it in hilarious detail here.
WOW! The sad thing is I agree with a lot of the "husband chart". Uh oh. Maybe I really do need to be better!
Red nail polish is a demerit?!?! HaHa, now that is great.
"Puts cold feet on husband at night to warm them" is a demerit too! Oh, man! I did that last night, along with waiting until my husband was asleep before going to bed, sleeping with spots of zit cream on my face, and wearing raggedy old pajamas. I think I got a negative score on this...
So I took the ENTIRE test for both Daniel and me on Friday night. I ranked a "Superior" wife (although I probably could have been harder on myself). He ranked as "Very Superior."
I thought I was doing really good but I scored a 12 and was a failure! That stinks!
