Oku-san - Vol. 1 Ch. 7 - The Housewife Minds the Home

[MangaDex]

 

[obsidianpassion]

Her husband fists her cleavage everyday?

 

[SotiCoto]

... So a kid breaks into her home somehow, gets mud everywhere, pisses in the bath... and then while holding said kid, she gets punched in the boobs by the older sister... and she just remarks that her husband does it every day. What? Punches her in the boobs?

And let us not get started on all that sexist crap about pouring the bath.... Why would anyone give a shit about a bath anyway?

... This is so unrealistic. She isn't even human at this stage. She is more like a neglected puppy.

Sexist crap? That's traditional house-wife stuff over there (and anywhere with a long-standing bathing culture.) Being a good home maker is a full-time job, as in, people literally pay thousands of dollars for the stuff a good housewife (or more rarely, husband) does. From maids to daycare. As for the bath, it's more a sign of the effort and love shown for one's partner. The point is it starts with, "I don't need to do X anymore..."

Also, what good neighbor she is.

 

[Suck-a-duck]

Are we ver going to see the husband, or the parents next door.

 

[sheepdoge]

you know i feel for the husband, he probably wishes he were home more given how loving his wife is (and the little gestures like putting his clothes on her and leaving a note for her that he'd like to be intimate with her that night as well) he probably wants to just spoil her, but to do that he needs money, but to get money he has to work and be away from her. the perils of adulthood

 

[Exia1987]

Bah we are at the point that an housewife can't choose to stay home and don't work because that's sexist... really all this bragging about freedom for woman and then we still have this kind of mental disposition. She want to work? That's ok. She want to stay at home and dote his husband? That's still ok. If a couple is ok with that I don't know why not be a stay at home woman, and apparently they want kids so why not?

@Boomthorkell Hey if she wants to do be a housewife, then let her be a housewife. It isn't sexist, it's her choice. She clearly and made her choice to be a housewife, as the Husband had shown signs of not forcing her to be a housewife and be traditional. Read Exia1987's and sheepdoge's comment for you to understand it further.

@SotiCoto Idk, does a Isekai make sense? Is Fantasy realistic? No. It's just a manga, it doesn't need realism to be a great manga. It just need to be entertaining. I don't get people like you complaining about the realism in a fictional book. Yes it's a Slice of life book, but it's still a Fictional book.

@Ap0stl30fA1nz

Ah, I was saying, "Sexist Crap?" to SotiCoto's claim. Thus, my whole written tangent about why she's a good housewife, and being a housewife is completely normal and desirable in most normal, healthy societies.

 

[Ap0stl30fA1nz]

@Boomthorkell Sorry, misread and misinterpret your whole sentence.
