Today I had a lovely day in York with my mum, Gwen and a family friend. My dad was meeting a friend of his from uni that he hasn't really seen since then. We met dad + chum at the train station on our way home, and were having friendly chats with them

*hysterical laughter* "What! Housewives never retire, you keep cleaning and cooking and careing for the house and people in it till the day you collapse! If you have a day job that you retire from you get to relax afterwards."

Not sure if I can think of a witty response either. Plenty of offensive responses, but no witty ones.

If you're retired for being a housewife, then he must be senile for being old. Treat him as such.
If it makes you feel better, my brother is a house husband.
