I know this is quite an old post, but a lab mate of mine recently showed me this “Marital Rating System” developed by Ph.D., M.D. in 1939 and I had to share. If you look around, there’s both a husband’s and a wife’s chart… Good thing I’m not looking for a husband in 1939 or my putting my cold feet on Andrew at night to warm them up could seriously get me in trouble (well, more than it already does)!
