I used to do a lot of jobs where I had to climb around on step stools,
reaching into awkward corners and nearly killing myself in the process.
Increasing age makes me less inclined to do this, hence my fantasy in
response to Jackie.  It's nice to know that some men do like housework.  I
have always hated it.

Hi Wendy.

So you are in the market for a tall man.  Can I assume also that he should 
be dark and handsome and have a big brush, and prepared to be treated  like 
a slave?  If I did not have Pauline, I may very well take you up on your 
offer, as nothing delights me more than working my fingers to the bone and 
being chastised for my efforts.  Why not buy a brush and do the job 
yourself.  Just think of the confidence this would give you and you could 
honestly say that I did it myself, without the help of a man.


Liberation for Woman, that's what I want and peace on earth for mankind.
