Domesticity Varies

By way of illustration



Domesticity means different things to different people. Here we see that some people select somewhat different styles of living from that of their neighbours. LHS - Flamboyant - RHS - Deadly Dull (but then how would one compete?)



Domestic:



Home – Homemaker - Homely – Homeward – Homemade- Home rule – Home spun – Homesick – Homebreaker - Homework – Homestead – Homicidal – Homer Simpson



Not imported - Not importuned – Not impotent - Not important – Not very interesting



House – Housewife - Household – Houseproud – Housekeeper – Housemaid – Housekeeping – Housemaster – Housemate - Housemouse – Housewrecker

Domestic is a place that is hard to inhabit - its boundaries being so close. Perhaps it is easier to define by what we look out at, than where we look from.

Is domestic a place that we can look at?
Perhaps it is a place that we can only look from?
I am planning a trip: I need to get some space, some distance from which to consider the view.
