[quote]PETALING JAYA: Obey, serve and entertain your husband – that’s the key message to wives by a club which will focus on how to reduce social ills committed by husbands.

The Obedient Wives Club, to be launched today, will provide tips to wives on ways to keep their husbands contented.

Its spokesman Siti Maznah Mohd Taufik said many social ills were caused by disobedient wives who did not bring joy to their husbands.

“Domestic abuse happens because wives don’t obey their husband. He must be responsible for his wife’s well-being but she must listen to him,”

That is so misogynistic but at the same strangely appealing.

you mean appalling?

Guess it depends on POV?

Actually, you would probably take ANY class prostitute any time! If they would have you!

I'm not sure what it says about me that I've been tagged in three separate facebook posts about the OWC.

I must admit though, the part about the "first class prostitutes" had my husband intrigued

To be honest, if you take away the misogynistic context I don't think it's such a bad idea for wives to know what makes their husbands tick.

Now we just need a "Devoted Husbands Club" to teach husbands how to deal with their hysterical wives to keep them from going out an maxing out the credit cards at the mall, and teach them how to romance us like Hawkeye from Last of the Mohicans and we'll be all set

isn't a marriage supposed to be a partnership where both parties are equal and responsible for each other rather than a 'servant'-'master' kind of thing?
dont get it why is there a need for OWC.

In patriarchal Singapore?

Reminds me of that old joke:

"Do you believe in clubs for women?"

"Yes, but only when all other forms of persuasion fail."

Agreed !

Very disgusted by the obedience wife club.

why not have a obedience husband club !!!!

Anyway it was set up by a banned Islamic sect from Malaysia so even typical Muslims find that very unacceptable...
