Perhaps (31) are far more wives that I imagine who take it for (32) that housework is neither satisfying nor even important once the basic demands of hygiene and feeding have been (33). But home and family is the one realm in (34) it is really difficult to shake free of one’s upbringing and create new values. My parents’ house was impeccably kept; cleanliness (35) a moral and social virtue, and personal untidiness, visibly old clothes, or long male hair provoked biting jocularity.

My parents had not even the status-seeking impetus to send me to university that Joe’s had; my mother (48) me to be "a nice quiet person who wouldn’t be noticed (49) a crowd", and it was feared that university education (50) in ingratitude (independence).
