The reliable wife

Today's book club book was "The Reliable Wife". I didn't care much for the book itself...I actually quite actively disliked it.

But the title got me thinking. What makes a reliable wife?

Is it a woman who can:
  • Keep a clean house
  • Procreates the amount of children you want
  • Makes you laugh and laughs at your jokes
  • Can cook
  • Hold down a full time job and manage the house
  • Wants sex whenever her husband/partner does
  • Makes you chicken noodle soup when you are sick
  • Watches football with you every Sunday
  • Raises your children
  • Knows you inside and out
Or is it something else?
