Now, being a caddish chap-about-town, I've seen the world in all its colours and tastes. But that said, dash it if I'm not a little peturbed that my betrothed wishes to find some form of 'employment'. My view is one of tradition, that a lady remains at home, looking after domestic concerns, making lace and cooking pies whilst idly dreaming of failed aspirations. Meanwhile, my duty is to socialise at the gentlemen's club and maintain a standard of dignity that reflects the power of my family fortune. Sadly, my choice of lady has proved tempestuous to say the least - quite determined as she is that she will go 'out to work' and, even worse, that I might consider the same for myself! Dash it and blast, how can I make it clear that this simply isn't on?
