By , About.com Guides

The large numbers of Japanese workaholic husbands is the reason for the existence of the "Japan Doting Husbands Association" and the proclamation of January 31st as a special day for wives.

Although we think they need to add a few more rules, here are the five golden rules of the doting husbands.

Five Golden Rules of the Doting Husbands

  • Get home by 8 p.m.

  • Eat dinner with your family.

  • Say thanks to your wife for all that she does.

  • Call your wife by name rather than saying "you" or grunting at her.

  • Look your wife in the eyes when talking to her.
