Rent a husband for an hour

Check this out.

Moscow City Hall want to rent ‘husbands’ to perform ‘men’s jobs’ in local households. The hired “husbands” would be available to perform tasks traditionally viewed as a man’s job in a Russian household, such as replacing a leaky tap or putting up shelves,

“Husband For An Hour Moscow” is one of several dozen companies which promise “young and strong men with a huge set of technical skills,”

“You’ve just spent a long time in a store selecting a new light fixture for your hallway to perfectly match your new decor,” the company’s online statement reads. “But you’re a beautiful woman with a killer manicure, and you’re not ready to get intimate with a buzzing and horribly vibrating drill. Who can come to your aid?” “Assertive men, who’ll call themselves your husband for an hour, are on their way to your home,” the ad reads.

We generally call these men ..plumber, electrician, technician, carpenter, contractor, window guy..etc

Maybe something is lost in the translation…or way more is being advertised here..
