Don't Forget To Perform Your Patriot Duty, VOTE!

Ladies, remember to put on your best outift and get down to the voting stations to do your partriot duty.

All Stepford wives should be active in the community.

And if the public question on who to be voted on confuses you, remember to ask.  Start with your elected man of the house!

Now here at Stepford Wives Organization, we ladies love the AMC TV Series Mad Men.    While we may not adore it the way we adore the Donna Reed Show, we do watch it religiously.  We swoon when Betty Draper says “whatever you think is best” to the head of her household when it comes to making a decision.  And not to mention those gorgeous 50′s outfits.  It’s to die for!

In the opening season, there was a clever reference to our beloved manifesto, the “How to Be A Good Wife” guide, an urban legend spread first through faxes in the eighties, then emails in the 90s.  When Peggy Olson goes to visit the gynecologist, she is seen seating on the inspection table reading a pamphlet entitled “It’s Your Wedding Night: What a Every Bride Should Know. How To Be A Good Wife.” Of course, the women at Stepford Wives don’t think it’s all that funny. I mean, the atrocious grammar is positively shameful! “What a Every Bride Should Know?”

The reference could also be a nod towards yet another urban legend: the article that purportedly hailed from “The Madison Institute” in 1894 entitled “INSTRUCTION AND ADVICE FOR THE YOUNG BRIDE.”

Whatever it may be, we still blushed a little that our hard work at our Stepford Organization has finally paid off and we are receiving some recognition on tv.

The Fox News interview of Sarah Palin post VP election with Greta Van Susteren is an extremely telling reflection of the supposed enlightened American public at large.  Even though us ladies at the Stepford Wives Bridge Club have cheered Sarah all along in her quest for the Vice President slot in our United States of America, we couldn’t help but notice a latent chauvinism surfacing from the “male-feminists” who sometimes pretend to know better.

At The Stepford Wives Organization, we may leave the tough decisions up to our husbands, but that doesn’t mean we are in the dark about issues.  Camille Paglia wrote a wonderful article on our Sarah, and guys who purport to be the ever sensitive and political correct male should have a glance at it.

I could almost feel the relish and satisfaction of some of the thinly disguised egalitarian males (and females) when they see their arch-enemy back in the kitchen preparing food for her children (is that even a punishment?  Stepford Wives say NAY!).

We girls do believe that people should have their say.  We support people whose opinions don’t mesh with ours.  Critics may make fun of our 1950s view on life and women’s place in the home.  But make no mistake: a person’s right to speak and voice her or his opinions is a wonderful thing we admire and wish we possessed.

Sarah Palin will go down in the history books as having exposed the double-standards of the “feminists liberators.”

The moment the freed individual voices a perspective these supposed liberators disagree with, then that individual needs to “go back into the kitchen and take care of the kids.”

Well, so be it.  Come back to the kitchen and join us Sarah!  We love you and we don’t care what your critics say:  we know you can do it, and you have inspired us all here at Stepford by showing us you have the take-charge, can-do spirit!
