Think that was the "June Cleaver" theory of housework. But come to think of it most housewives shown on television or in the media wore high heels, starched shirtwaist dresses and heels when doing housework. Oh yes, don't forget the pearls. Let me see, we had: Mrs. June Cleaver Mrs. Cunningham (Happy Days) The mother on Father Knows Best Lucy and Ethel IIRC were more real life in that they wore flats with slacks and a big blouse when house cleaning.

In home economics we were taught to always put on a clean frock and freshen up before husband came home from work. Said husband shouldn't be greeted by a drudge moaning about how hard her day was dealing with the household, children and her chores. The businessman upon coming home should find his home an oasis from the troubles of the office, so the theory went. A housewife was no to trouble her husband with petty household problems the minute he walked into the door. Neither were his children to "bother" him. Once the "lord and master" arrived home all was to be done to arrange his comfort. Guess what grade I got? *LOL* Only reason ever watched LITB reruns was to look at Wally, Beav's big brother. Can see why girls went crazy over him. A 1950's BMOC, right down to the varsity jacket. Launderess |

There were then, and probably still now, women whose husbands never saw what they looked like without make-up. These women would "put their face to bed" after hubby was in bed already and prolly post any funny business, and always arose before he did to get dressed/made up. IIRC think this sort of thing fell under "keeping the mystery alive" in a marriage. Launderess |

I've seen Tony Dow in much later shows and though graying, has held up very well, MUCH better than Jerry Mathers did. Barbara Billingsley has also aged well. |
