One cannot simply define 'Good wife'. It depends on the requirements you have.
OK, I can tell some ideal characteristics of a good wife (husband's perspective) - No offense
- Great patience.
- Good looking
- Educated (at least Bachelors degree) and able to earn something (in case of your absence)
- Well Educated family with traditional background.
- Good cook and
- Respect elders, love children and pets
- Help other and maintains social relationship with neighbors (not on face-book ;) )
- Able to take decisions on her own
- Supports you in crisis (of any kind)
- Adjusting mentality
So this is the list, very rare to find them.
But as per our elders, a good wife should be a part of husband, where she should qualify all 6 Noble virtues. Which never exists (In this modern era)
