MojoRisin -> 1950s household (11/25/2005 2:24:07 PM)
To those subs who list "1950s household" as one of their interests... What exact scenario do you picture in your head with that and what exactly do you want out of it? Just curious :) Mojo

Just curious :) Mojo i've not listed such, but for me personally, i'd love for june cleaver to come to my house, clean and do laundry, and then cook up dinner and cookies. i kinda like the coloured appliances, too (pink stove and vacuum). i don't know that i could live with the social repression so prevalent during that time, though, but at least elvis would be in his blue suede shoes.

In the 1950's the man was king of his castle and the woman was the little woman. They needed each other, loved each other, and relied on each other but in the end the man was still king. She deferred to him in almost all things. They shared thoughts and opinions but his word was final. This was not only the way it was and what was the norm but shame to a woman who went against it. i think it's entirely possible to be a modern woman out in the world and live that lifestyle in the home.

having grown up in one, my idea is that they were not socially repressed, (although the form and function was there, kinda like catholics) although coming from minnesota, I did not know what black folk were, until I was in my 7th or 8th year.........both a poignant and hilarious story that I have oft regaled my friends with. My mother was no June Cleaver, I know cause shes on this site. But I am with you OP! What is that ideal? You handle the Beav's problems and have Eddy stare at your pearled tits and I do the pipe smoking or what? Curiously, Ron P.S. we did the blonde cabinetry and so on with the white appliances and a purple kitchen that was the rage in the neighborhood. Mom was a freak with colors, and a just plain freak, as it turned out.....a real rick james.

To me, 1950's means that mommy was at home and submitted to her breadwinning hubby. Dinner was always on the table at 6pm. Mommies wore pretty dresses and were ready for any occasion at the drop of a hat. The children were pretty, clean, and perfect. The doors were unlocked and there were block parties every summer.

Just rent a DVD of "Little House of Horrors." It's spelled out perfectly in one of the numbers

Dear girl4you2, you know me better than that. I am not a total glib asswipe.But I gotta tell Ja; McCarthyism = Saddamism Martin Luther King/Rosa Parks = Louisiana quote: ORIGINAL: girl4you2 the witch-hunt and anti-communist hysteria that became known as mccarthyism wasn't seen as warm and fuzzy to many. intolerance based upon thoughts, colour, beliefs, sexual orientation, and religion were highly volatile things in the 1950s. So now we do muslims and sand niggers cause we aint got russia as a world power anymore, don't need to fear the commies, so we go back to racist or cultural predjudice, the very thing we were supposed to be founded on abhorring ..........let's tell it like it is. intolerance is as prevalent today as ever, it is a distinction without a difference. I know you made that one post on real life and we have visited. I am sorry if I offended you....... I am still the same asshole I always was; however. We ain't changed much.............. You can take that to the Bank. Ron

Ron yes, i know you better and you've not offended me at all. as much as some things in the world change, they stay the same. although, some racism that was targeting certain groups in the 50s still targets them as well as others. just wanted to bring back to the thoughts that life wasn't all "leave it to beaver" and "happy days" in the 50s.

Maybe some will think I am totally unrealistic...but I have a fantasy of a 1950's style home but the woman is in charge. No...no...I will not go out to work. My husband will go out and work and then come home to clean and do all those pesky chores. OH!!! And he better be ready to please me after he gets the perfect little kiddies to bed!!! This will leave me time for all of my "amusements". I just like the clothes, strict undergarmets, and big hair. OH!!! And the pointy shoes. In reality I probably dress more like a sophisticated 1950s woman with apron and heels...more than most. I work in a "community" that supports Alzheimer's victims and those with all levels of dementia and we do a lot to reminiscence about times gone by...and have a great time with what they can remember and me telling my views on things...the more cognitive resident females LOVE my way of thinking and say women today have it made....because we can CHOSE what we want to be. I bought a book called "The Retro 1950's Housewife"...It is very amusing. Look the book up, there are a few in teh series. Tiffany

I was raised by my grandparents. They weren't into D/s or anything but it was a very traditional household. My grandfather was the king of the castle, my grandmother had a say in things but in the end my grandfather ran things. He paid the bills, he was the man of the house, and that's just how it was. Now obviously being into D/s and the lifestyle and it being the modern world and not one of the 1950's there will be differences but my house will be similar as I see it now.

kisshou -> RE: 1950s household (11/25/2005 9:41:41 PM)
I think a 1950's home is where it is the womans job to make a home, stay at home with the children, have dinner on the table every night. It is not where both parents work but where a family can afford to live off of one income.

sunshine333 -> RE: 1950s household (11/26/2005 4:40:49 AM)
i didn't check that option but probably should have. the ideal version of the 50's household, for me ... is where the man and the woman have very clearly defined roles in the house. the man is the head of the house. he is the breadwinner, decision maker, rule giver and enforcer. the woman keeps the house and serves her husband to make his life more pleasant. there is no battle for power. no confusion as to who does what. and no resentment of both people's roles. the man will leave happily in the morning for work proud that he is the provider. and the woman will happily greet him at the door when he gets home with his robe and slippers. she will treat him like a king ... and he will be a king. he will set the rules of the house and she will abide by them. he will take care of all the "worldly" things and she will keep the house warm in all ways. the simplicity of that is what appeals to me. neither one has a harder or more important role in the house. and i think the distinctness of each role makes the house run smoothly. in my opinion ... what works best is the take the ideals of from different ways of life and create a recipe that fits with you. humbly, sunshine

candystripper -> RE: 1950s household (11/26/2005 5:07:17 AM)
i agree with sunshine333, but would add, in years past (we believe) people were able to be taken at their word. Neighbors looked out for one another. Children were generally more respectful of adults. Men who were married did not stray (as much). There was prosperity, and financial security, and optimism about the future. i would point out that the 1950's were not the golden age we like to reminise about. Blacks, especially southern Blacks, had to deal with a staggering load of racism. Divorce was seen as a scandal, with the woman being ostrasized most times. The Korean War did not end until 1953. Eisinhower is not considered by most to have been a stellar president. The McCarthy Hearings -- which made television history -- did not end until 1952. The Soviet government refused to allow Jews to emigrate and sent many intellectuals to the Gulag. In short, life was different but not necessarially better in the 1950's for anyone except white men. i checked "1950's household" not for the reality of the 1950's but for the myth; that Men were strong and protected the home; that they were wise and could handle the family's affairs; that while He is at work i can rest on my laurels as a homemaker -- in short, the Norman Rockwell version. candystripper

sting516 -> RE: 1950s household (11/26/2005 5:38:15 AM)
is it me...or do we tend to take things like 1950s household a step too far when analyzing it? it's just like when there are those who debate the term forced fem or forced bi or forced whatever because if the person wants it, how can it be forced.... imho, collarme was referring to the wife at home scenario we all remember from old time tv...not all the social questions that were around...of course...none of us named it, just as none of us named certain other things people enjoy....and overly dissecting it just takes the enjoyment out of it. now, back to your regularly scheduled programming.... sting

krys -> RE: 1950s household (11/26/2005 6:53:44 AM)
Sorry if I offend anyone, but this has to be the funniest reading WAY too much into something thread I have ever seen. Does anyone actually believe that someone that checks "1950s Household" on their interests is interested in racism and the red scare? One does not have to bring society's ills into their household.

I totally agree with this sentiment. And yes, modern females can make it work I do while running two homes. A career and a job. Hectic yes but fulfilling.
