"Marriage is a workshop...where the husband works…

“Marriage is a workshop…where the husband works and the wife shops” is a jocular marriage saying that has been printed on many images. “Marriage is like a workshop: husband works, wife shops” was posted on Twitter on May 20, 2010.

The “workshop” joke appears to have originated in India. Many women work, so this saying is very often not true.

Marriage is a workshop. WHY? Because the husband works while the wife shops 😉
