and impeccable makeup.
My husband works as a mechanic. He has early 5am starts. Every day I awake at 4 am. I go to the bathroom.. but not the ensuite, because I would NEVER wake up my poor handsome Walter from his much deserved slumber. No, I go to the outhouse, because I need to poop, and Walter must never find out I poop.
After pooping, I tip-toe into my daughter's bedroom (I usually wake her but who gives a fk, girls don't need sleep they never do anything). I apply my makeup impeccably. I epilate every hair on my body. I apply baby oil so that my skin is supple.
I then prepare Walter's breakfast, while having my black coffee (good wives don't eat breakfast, I have a figure to maintain!). Perfectly poached eggs, Atlantic salmon, streaked bacon, with sourdough toast that I baked the night before.
I awake Walter by massaging his feet and kissing his head lovingly. I tell him breakfast is ready. While he eats, I iron his underwear and socks for the day. He then goes to work and I clean-and-exercise at the same time, wearing 5 inch stilettos, my favourite sundress, and listening to Snoop Dogg so I never forget how to pop my booty, in the off chance that Walter runs back in because he has forgotten something. He must never see me in a state of unsexiness.
We have been married for 30 years. I believe it is because I am such a wonderful wife.

Dear,
Don't forget the well-manicured, polished 2-inch finger nails. Also, you must be well-versed in the ways of manners and gentility.
...and be well-read...
...but not too well-read...
...because you, of course, are only a woman, and we must always be sure that the man knows, he's ...well...the man...

Yeah girl lol we had a $10 limit. I got the biggest box and was SO excited. Unwrap it up to see it's one of the boxes we get the stationary delivered in... okay so my excitement is going down a little at this point. See that there's a label saying "You are what you do"... now I'm confused... Apron, tea towel, oven mitt, and a g*d damn bottle of windex.
I was like U WOT?!?!?. Kept trying to detective who it was.. went on holidays for Xmas and my coworker got the guy to confess.. He probably is just clueless.. but still. U wot.

Ah, I get it now, yeah China is a bit behind in it's gender roles to say the least. He probably thought it was totally fine because that's the sort of thing that happens here all the time to women that aren't on the road to marriage before they leave university. It blows my mind. My colleges tell me not to worry, it might be okay being western, but I should probably get on and have a baby, because, you know, I'm so old already. No, they are actually genuinely concerned for me and what I am doing with my life.
Also it's totally fine to grab parts anyone that's not Chinese and tell them they're fat and hairy, which is disconcerting to say the least...

Without thinking then okay I understand. But a present for someone he doesn't know, that has been thought about in advance? Seems a bit weird.
As for the fat and hairy trash, I find it really insulting. People here are so xenophobic they don't even know they are doing it! It dosnt matter what size, you just have to be not Chinese! It's tiring to get insulted in the hometown for being too thin then insulted at here for being to big. And don't get me started on the size of the muff I see in the changing rooms!

haha, it's just that I can't un-see it! Girls a row with and everything
One time when we first moved here my husband and I where walking about. He say's to me 'loads of Chinese women look like they have big bulging fannies' (lots of people wear leggings here) I had to tell him that Chinese fanny is not different, just a lot of them have giant unkempt bush.
Yeah, he kinda made that face too.

Build-a-man workshop, awesome!!
For me perfection is:
-intelligence
-emotional maturity
-belief in a higher power
-communication skills (Texting to death doesn't count. I prefer use of the voice feature every now and again.)
-understanding that working out and solid nutrition is not solely for aesthetics
-ability to fix things
