A few weeks ago I posted about the 1930′s Marital Rating Test that caused a sensation all over the web when Monitor on Psychology from the American Psychological Association put it on their site. Well, now you can take the entire test on-line here, and find out how you’d rate 80 years ago. I did manage to get a superior score, but missed very superior by 7 points. Mostly due to my penchant for wearing pajamas, I think. Anyway, it’s good for another chuckle. Men can take the husband’s test too.

I scored 62, superior. Must have been the profanity and pajamas question….
I am a 92, which I was shocked by. Some of the questions (crooked seam on nylons???) were ridiculous, but I was sure I would fail! Thanks, that was fun!
As a husband: 93.
I don’t know if that is good or bad.
Yeah… somehow I got an 84… I don’t even fall into the “superior wife” category by today’s standards!!!
“Reacts with pleasure and delight to marital congress.”
That one cracked me up!!!
What a fun test! I was rolling my eyes at some of the questions, and honestly a bit convicted by others. I scored a 91, but I think I could have been a little more honest about my rough spots… it’s interesting to see how many of the important things back then are still important now, like not being a whiner!!
