Wafery

Wifery

Disputable. Can only find 'Old-wifery' & 'Midwifery' in Scotty's OED, and another sourced OED.

'Wifery' doesn't stand on it's own.

It exists in the term 'spiritual wifery' according to Wikipedia, first used amongst US non-conformist religions form the early 19th century.

(By the way, there is no apostrophe in its, when it's used as a possessive. )

Is 'wifery' in the dictionary used as THE reference as quoted in the original poster's profile?

Ok, you've got me on the apostrophe.
We're not meant to be using Wikipedia Urban dictionary etc etc.
Why can't we stick to the link in the thread makers profile?
That way it's one source for all.

Beat me to it.
Anything goes...when it suits HIM.

Laaarf!
