Perhaps the reason why the stereotype of the Japanese housewife as a boring individual unable to please her husband is because, left alone at home there is little intellectual stimulation for her mind. The same goes with common male laborers; it has nothing to do with one's sex! And because the ancient Japanese courtesans were trained in the arts - poetry and music, etc - they were far more appealing to Japanese men than their dull, timid housewives. No wonder they frequented the pleasure quarter so often. It wasn't only bodily lust, but it was intellectual lust as well. Be sure that your wife doesn't only stimulate you physically with her appearance but also mentally with her intellect and fascinating personality. And she needs hobbies to keep her spirit bright and alive; if all she does is household chores, her dreams and spirits will dim for lack of use. The woman that you fall in love with and marry should be nurtured as she is and watered so that she grows and blooms more beautiful. A wife is not a wild flower that you pick because you admire it's beauty, then just leave it lying around to decay. Instead, you need to pull it up from the roots carefully and put it in your personal garden to nurture and care for it, then enjoy watching her flourish as you lavishly pour your love upon her.
Note: this is a thought fragment, people! Not a well researched theoretical essay, so don't get all irascible if you mistakenly think I'm a misogynist or something...I don't have time to be politically correct and account for every possible way you might interpret what I write...
