Our Grandparents Espoused Some Curious Requirements For Their Ideal Mates
At the height of the Victorian Era, when our rose-colored memories beguile us with the belief that everyone glided through life with absolute propriety, Cincinnatians were a decidedly randy bunch. Tales of moral misdeeds bleed from the city’s newspapers. And yet, the papers are full of instruction on how to itemize the virtues of the perfect spouse. Here is a selection, extracted from Cincinnati newspapers published between 1890 and 1920.
Tumblr media
The Ideal Husband
“Every married man knows that an ideal husband has to be nine-tenths mollycoddle.” [1912]
“He is temperate, moral, intellectual, truthful, forgiving, Christian; loves home, makes an honest, comfortable living, gives his wife a personal allowance, and never asks her how she spends it; never scolds nor contradicts nor laughs at her; remembers she has nerves, that she loves pretty things, and thinks that she is the dearest, loveliest little woman on earth – such is the ideal husband, whose advent we may expect with the millennium.” [1894]
“The ideal husband is the one who devotes his life to his wife, who makes her the first consideration in all his thoughts and acts, who understands that she is the aim of everything which he undertakes, and that he should use all the resources that Nature has placed in his mind and Fortune has put in his hands in order that she may be happy and remain long beautiful.” [1903]
“He must be generous, broad-minded, sympathetic, the gallant, fascinating lover of courting days. He does not try to be a master; he makes home happy by cheerful good humor; he realizes that perfect love cannot exist where either wishes to rule. As I was saying, this is the ideal, and ideals are better as such than in the flesh.” [1912]
“He is neat, plainly dressed and rather common looking. He has sober habits with honesty and good will shining out of a clear, frank face. His business occupies half his time; the rest he spends with his wife and children. He is fond of his home and is curious how it is run.” [1907]
“The ideal husband is the one who lets his wife alone, who does not interfere with her household duties or any of her little womanly fads, who is not always paying her compliments or besieging her with advice, and who is not always by her side or behind her back, who seldom addresses her reproaches, and never reminds her of what he has done to deserve her gratitude, who is not fussy, fidgety or a bore of a model of propriety and virtue.” [1903]
“The ideal husband is the man who pleases his own wife. The ideal husband may not be ideal in all things, but if he pleases his wife he’s an ideal husband – his wife’s ideal. The ideal husband is always a sweetheart to his wife. The ideal husband is a good fellow. He doesn’t forget his bachelor friends and occasionally spends an evening with them – with his wife’s approval. The ideal husband is not an angel. He knows the whir of wings makes his wife nervous. If a man’s an ideal husband, give credit for his perfection to his wife.” [1914]
“A husband should not be handsome. First of all he is never very beautiful, since he is a man. But he might be worse; he might think he is beautiful, and then heaven help his wife.” [1903]
“A model husband should give his wife as much money for her own use as he spends himself for tobacco and drinks.” [1908]
The Ideal Wife
“My ideal wife is a true woman, with a loving disposition, one who can cook you a good dinner, mend and make, and nurse her husband and children when ill. One who doesn’t worry over trifles, or meet troubles half way. One who will not be wanting money for a new bonnet every time the fashion changes, and yet will keep herself neat and nice after she is married, just as she did before. One who will live within her husband’s income, and save for a rainy day. One who will meet you with a smile and a kiss when you return tired from work. Such a wife I shall call a treasure if I am lucky enough to get her.” [1895]
“Her household balance sheet is an inextricable tangle which would defy the most experienced auditor. Her collection of hats is fearful and wonderful. Her wardrobe is overflowing with unnecessaries and she is always ready for anything in the nature of outdoor sports. The orderly, careful management of the household is quite beyond her, and she does not know what it is to look upon the serious side of things. We are asked to believe that she makes up for all these shortcomings by an all-pervading scent of violets and a sunny nature that will not be depressed.” [1914]
“Without being beautiful, she is really nice, pleasant and happy. My equal in vigor, health and mind. Not a ‘new woman,’ but a thorough domestic helpmate. Her voice is melodious; her affection and faith unbounded. She can discuss the news of the day equally well with the last new bonnet.” [1895]
“A Cincinnati court discovered the ideal wife in a woman who washed, ironed, cooked, mended, and made clothing for her husband and seven children. As proof of what appreciation and ideal wife receives, this one is now suing for alimony. Moral: Don’t be an ideal wife.” [1916]
“An ideal wife is one who will believe all the darn lies her husband tells her.” [1918]
“A glorified housekeeper with the capabilities of a head nurse. She is not to experience any of the beautiful qualities associated with wifehood beyond what is of a strictly utilitarian nature. Hygiene and food are her two great desiderata. The wit, beauty, seductiveness, the alluring elusiveness, the uncertainties of temper, and the irritating and fascinating surprises arising therefrom are denied her. She is supposed to be a combination of the doctor and a keeper of the household stores.” [1914]
“Pleasingly plump, with light brown hair, blue eyes and good teeth. She must have a sense of humor and be willing to laugh at all my jokes, no matter how punk they are.” [1920]
“No woman, unless she be a good cook, can qualify as an ideal wife. She must be self-reliant; she must not ‘nag’ and find fault; she must be content, but not without ambition; she must be womanly; she must continue to be a sweetheart and she must keep the house as tidy for the reception of her husband as she did for her lover.” [1914]
“I hate these baby-doll vamps. She must have a knowledge of psychology and a will of her own but not too strong, to talk sense when necessary. And she must know how to wear tailored suits.” [1920]

It's ok.
Did I mainline Our Flag Means Death? Yes. But.
I am fucking ok.
Have I been listening to Miss Misery on repeat since? Sure and what about it? Like I said.
I am excellent.
Are there some Mitski and FJM songs I have queued up to play while I curate a reading list of the finest OFMD slashfics AO3 has to offer? As if that isn't a given after eps 9 & 10.
I know I seem mental but I'm fine.

Thinking about how Crowley thinks Aziraphale calls him when he’s bored (when nothing is happening) , when he’s “done something clever” (when something good happens), or when he needs help (when something bad happens) . Like. Crowley my beloved that’s all the times.

aziraphale, the one who gave the first human exiles his flaming sword as both a source of protection and warmth, who did not look on them as sinners deserving of destruction but people entitled to the best chances possible, has never once looked at crowley, a heavenly exile, with anything other than compassion and a desire to protect. from their first meeting, he never wanted anything bad to happen to him. when crowley slithers up to him in eden, he treats him like an equal rather than an adversary. when crowley appears, his eyes fill with love and excitement, his gaze turns soft and hesitant, his whole body seizes with joy of seeing him. crowley might typically the one to seek him out, but aziraphale has always welcomed him home.

The LAYERS needed in a modern/human Dreamling au.  Some level of Endless family dysfunction, obviously.  Hob's family can be be dead or not, it's all good. Are they old enough to have individually gained the awareness they are off-puttingly intense and should hide it a bit at first, or still in that "no, why would I need to Elsa this" stage?
Option A is both of them trying to play it cool, like "don't scare him off" except they so badly want to go from zero to sixty.
(Death and Desire have ruthlessly drilled Dream with flashcards about how to react appropriately in situations.
Desire: it's your one-month anniversary, what do you do?
Dream: [hesitantly] NOT propose?
Desire and Death, conferring, because that's technically correct but the delivery was suspect.
Death, encouragingly: Good start. And?

Dream: a nice dinner and maybe a walk?
Desire: well done!
Death: and for a three-month anniversary?

Dream: give them a key to my flat.
Desire: [airhorn] NO. RED CARD.)
Option B makes them the classic anecdotal "my grandparents got engaged within seven days of meeting each other and still are happy together".
(Death, rubbing her temples: so you met this guy--
Dream: Hob
Death: -- Hob, and within 1 day you gave notice to the Registrar's Office and figured out the best day to get married. And Hob agreed to this?
Dream: NO.
Death: oh thank go-
Dream: Hob SUGGESTED this.
Death: . . .
Dream: are you going to be a witness or not?
Death, 29 days later in the Registrar's Office, to Hob's witness: Is he sane?
Johanna Constantine, drinking heavily from a large flask: unfortunately yes, by all legal definitions.
Death: fuck
Johanna: [passing the flask over] if your brother's even a tenth as intense as Hob, they'll be fine. Probably.
Death, brightening: Is Hob that bad?

Johanna: You know how sometimes you meet somebody and think "oof, they're a bit much, best give them a wide berth"?

Death: yeah.
Johanna: Hob's like a camouflaged hole in the ground of muchness. Except he's done the hole up all nice and he knows that sometimes you just want to be left alone in the hole to sulk and rattle the spikes for a bit, and occasionally get a F&M hamper tossed in.
Death: [hmmmmmmm'ing approvingly]
Johanna, morose: the bastard.
In the background, Hob and Dream are pressing their foreheads together and basking in each other's presence)
#dreamling#the sandman#it's underappreciated how many red flags hob probably is buried under his amiable exterior#he looked at dream of the endless and went 'yeah'#not even as a 'i can make him better'#very much as a 'i can vibe with his current state and frankly even if he was worse i'd still be like that's my husband [shrug emoji]'#'what am i supposed to do? i knew who he was when i married him'#everybody around them: [extremely done with their shit] STOP ENABLING HIM#hob: he's my goth sweetheart#dream's entire family: he's ten sulking cats in eyeliner and a dramatic coat#hob: i know :D i love him!#johanna constantine is like 'hob's insane'#and everybody's going 'oh no don't be so mean he's just a little boring next to dream'#johanna: he saw dream being dream and went 'i need to stamp my name on him. how do i permanently tie us together'#johanna: he'd never safety pin a condom but i can just see the gears turning in hob's head about how to get to spend more time with dream#johanna: just radiating smug contentment over his insane wet cat#hob: i cannot wait to spend the next 60 years with that man#hob: and ideally die in our sleep together still holding hands#death and johanna: [staring at him over their fourth round of drinks]#dream: [heart of eyes and pink of cheeks]#dream: we should never not be holding hands#hob: okay but what if occasionally we stop holding hands just to then appreciate the feeling of starting to hold hands again#dream: [mulling] acceptable#death and johanna could probably start an entire benefriends or actual romantic relationship entirely based on judging dreamling

“Go with them,” she commanded Ser Jorah.
“As you command.” The knight gave her a curious look. “You are your brother’s sister, in truth.” 
“Viserys?” She did not understand. 
“No,” he answered. “Rhaegar.” He galloped off.
incredibly messy drawing but the few times the rhaegar and dany dynamic/parallels are discussed are so interesting to me!!
