That's how I read the posture differences between the husband and wife in each frame. No matter the wife, the husband always looks unhappy.

all that to say that the sex is better with older women.

In these times the guy was the only one working all day to pay for the lifestyle.

Women also were not allowed to have bank accounts

I tend to disagree. I for one can tell a person's age primarily by their necks. There's a reason scarfs are so popular among over-40s. For the face, there's make-up and botox.

It's a 6000 year old tradition.

Big dommy Tommy?

He looks ragged, but we've all seen the needy entitlement of that generation in an office environment, and I'm just not buying it.

"Now how did I kill my husband, again?" *scribbles furiously into notepad*

I'm down for all of these except "always cheerful". There is such a thing as toxic positivity, and christ it's draining.

I've had some mix of QuietHomeGirl+Industrious which was great, but we didn't always have a lot to talk about. I've had Butterfly+SeriousAndClever and I just could not keep up.

I myself am Industrious (that's my only defining characteristic here). I think HomeGirl+Tomboy could be a fun one.
