Indeed...

This Filipino poet just took the words out of my mouth.

A Prayer, or Great Expectations
Fanny Haydee B. Llego

There's no doubt about it I need to get hitched:
I need someone to scratch me whenever I itch

Or give me a backrub whenever I want it
(Who'll pout only a little when someone else does it);

Someone on whom I can vent my frustrations
& who is supportive in trying situations;

Who'll extol all my virtues, forget all my faults
& would always submit to my sexual assaults;

Who'll bring up my children the way they should be
Yet still be entirely devoted to me;

Who'll always obey me, my word being law,
My logic, perfect; my thinking, without flaw;

My sexy cheerleader, housekeeper, accountant,
Secretary, nursemaid, unflagging assistant;

Brought up & moulded to think that success
Is found in the home: nothing more, nowhere else.

O, Mother Goddess, I need in my life
A man willing to be the perfect little wife!
