Someone just wife me already

I'M TOTALLY KIDDING MOM AND DAD!

I'm a bit on the fence about the phrase "someone just wife me already".
Usually this is pertaining to a persons homely abilities.
Like on Saturday I had my friend KC spend the night and let me just say, I made a pretty spectacular breakfast.
Bacon, chocolate donuts and some other things.
But seeing as most of the time my breakfast is a yogurt or some cream of wheat scarfed down before running out the door, this was pretty legit.
But I said something along the lines of "someone just wife me already."

Now as we all know.
I believe in love.
I am not particularly in a point in my life where i'm really looking for a life partner.
But there are plenty of other people my age that are.
And i'm just not really in that group.
And I don't date just to date.
Like if someone remarkable comes into my life that I like then sure i'll go on a date with them.
But if I don't feel anything for them, i'm not going to waste my time getting into something I have no intention of keeping.

But being the feminist I am I caught myself off guard saying this.
Because I do not consider myself to be the type of woman that would normally take on the "wifely" duties.
If you've ever seen my room its difficult to keep it clean.
Also I pretty much stick to the same food.
And i've found i'm not all that patient with small children all that often.

My mother is a wonderful cook and really cooking just kind of stresses me out.
She is one of the most loving human beings and was and still is an incredible wife and mother to our family.
Hell shes probably half adopted most of the kids shes come in contact with.
But my parents don't always have that typical of defined wifely or husband like responsibilities all that often. They are a team.

But I don't think I fit the typical mold of what a "wife" should be.
I'd like a match or a partner or an equal.
No real defined responsibilities for either gender but just to progress and help in anyway possible.

So maybe someday someone will partner me or match me or be my equal.
But I don't think I will call myself a wife or call my husband a husband.
But we will be partners.
