Gabrielle Reece: Women Should Be "Submissive" With Their husbands She's a modern woman, wife and mom, but Gabrielle Reece has a surprising take on the ideal relationship between a wife and her husband. Married for 17 years to surfing legend Laird Hamilton, the pro volleyball star and fitness expert, 43, advises women to be "submissive" with their men in her new book My Foot Is Too Big for the Glass Slipper. "To truly be feminine means being soft, receptive, and -- look out, here it comes --submissive," writes the former model, who shares daughter Reece Viola, 9, and son Brody, 5, with Hamilton, 49. Reece, who took off ten years from work to raise their kids, clarified that provocative argument speaking with Natalie Morales on TODAY Friday, April 12. "I think the idea of living with a partner is 'How can I make their life better?'" she reasoned. "So if I'm the woman and he's the man, then yes, that's the dynamic. I'm willing and I choose to serve my family and my husband because it creates a dynamic where he is then in fact acting more like a man and masculine and treating me the way I want to be treated." But being "submissive" isn't a negative or antiquated thing, she argued. "I think because women have the ability to set the tone that the ultimate strength and showing real power, I believe, is creating that environment. I dont think it’s a sign of weakness. I think it’s a sign of strength." After tying the knot with Hamilton in 1997, Reece and the iconic blond went through a rough patch -- filing for divorce four years after the wedding, but reconciling two years later. "I feel like it's a blessing for us that we've gone through a bunch of different things in our relationship, which has allowed us to arrive here today," Hamilton said during a separate TODAY interview. "We’ve been brought here through what we've endured in our relationship and at the end that's only made us stronger http://omg.yahoo.com/news/gabrielle-reece-women-submissive-husbands-180000586-us-weekly.html 2 Likes |

This woman, whoever she is, is on point! Being submissive does not mean being enslaved, unfortunately, many people look at it that way. A man is the head of the household, and should be treated as such, with respect! Submitting is being his helper, listening, and bringing out the best in him. My two cents worth! 6 Likes 1 Share |

My two cents worth!There is nothing wrong with submission, every country has a leader but when that leader decides to let that little power go over his head that's when you start seeing coups. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Good Luck getting Most Black Women to be Submissive. Nothing can "control" that woman other than anything short of Islamic Indoctrinated Core Principals. And A Slap Across the Goddamn Face. |

Miss_3v3: I am Dead Serious. The Uncontrolled Nature of Black Women in the Western World and Europe Are Solely because they deviated out of traditions and cultures of Male Dominated Societies. {with a Genetic Makeup that would take full advantage of that} It's not a negative, just an obvious trait of notice. There are videos everyday posted online of black women running a goddamn muck Like that Lady who threw her baby down on the bus to fight some lady. Uncontrolled Psychos. I find it Absolutely Awesome |

onila: do you believe Nigerian statisticsThe WHO (world health organization) says that globally 1/3 children born are not the child of the father. Now imagine how much worse the situation would be in Africa where people don't even know how to use condoms properly and contraception is almost unheard off? |

CAMEROONPRIDE: I agree with the topic, there is nothing wrong with being submissive to your husband. The man is the head of the house and that is how it should be. Woman should respect their husbands(and vice verse) as no man wants an argumentative woman. When i say submissive i do not mean being a dummy/slave because if you are unhappy with something or he has done something wrong you need to express it to your husband in a proper way. 2 Likes 1 Share |
