Cute Quiz: How Do You Rate as a 1930's Housewife

This is a cute quiz. I'm kind of embarrased -- I scored an 83 ( I always did feel like I was born a few decades too late). So let us know if you're really June Cleaver at heart.

Some of the wording in the questions were funny

"Reacts with pleasure and delight to marital congress."
LOL

My score was 44.

I cannot believe my score - a 92. I always believed I was a June Cleaver but I thought with a modern spin - I guess not! I thought I would have a low score because I did not wear rollers in my hair!

75 - Superior

But not Very Superior, because I swear. I think the Husband's test is ever more interesting, definitely more explicit.

I got a 108
Don't know how I managed that, but I think I got bonus points for having 4 young children... I would have been great in the 30s.

I did the men's quiz for my husband and he outscored me. 140... We're a good match!

Well, not at all a surprise to me....I got an 18. Maybe a failure as a 1930s wife, but I am a superb 21st century mom/woman/contributing member of society.

Hmmm.... 89. I thought I was old fashioned, but didn't realize I was that much.

Interesting for a 31 year old engineer.

Well, that was interesting.

15 - As a 1930s wife, I am Very Poor (Failure)
Despite the fact that I was raised by wolves, I'm still a little surprised at my score. (LOL) I really thought I was a little more "traditional" than that. Maybe I took the questions too literally.

But, I'm not too surprised about DH's score.
58 - As a 1930s husband, I am Average
He works hard at his job, but doesn't do a lick of work at home unless I ask him to (which is rarely). He likes sports and he's quite affectionate to me. That's about all Ward Cleaver did, right?

Oh hell no-I hate theis quiz---I got a 26---I am a POOR wife.
I took it for DH (and answered very honestly I must say!) and he got a freakin' 105 superior husband rating?????????????

obviously after 18 years of marriage, and four kids, we are doomed.
Ummm, thanks OP-j/k
