Three friends each married women from different regions of the United States.
The first man chose a wife from Wisconsin. He instructed her that her responsibilities included doing the dishes and cleaning the house. After a couple of days, he returned home on the third day to find the house spotless and the dishes neatly put away.
The second man married a woman from Minnesota. He directed her to handle all the cleaning, dishwashing, and cooking. Initially, he noticed no changes on the first day, but by the second day, things had improved. By the third day, he was pleased to find the house tidy, the dishes done, and a large dinner prepared for him.
The third man took a bride from Kentucky. He demanded that she maintain a clean house, wash the dishes, mow the lawn, do the laundry, and ensure hot meals were ready for every meal. He recounted that on the first day, he saw no progress, and the second day was the same. However, by the third day, some of the swelling had subsided, allowing him to see a bit out of his left eye, and his arm had healed enough for him to make a sandwich and load the dishwasher. He still experiences some challenges with urination.
