Next time Op, try not to mischievous, submission is for both husband and wife,
In 1Peter 3:7, the bible says
Husbands, in the same waysubmit yourselves to your own wives, as you dwell together wisely, recognizing her........

Christian women should submit in a marriage where there is mutual respect, loyalty, and trust, not to a irresponsible selfish self centered cheating man who does not give a hoot about his wife and children, if you do that, you will face the consequences and be made to fend for yourself and kids alone.

Remember the Bible says that "a man that can't provide for his family is worse than an infidel", Bible also said that "a lazy man does not deserve to eat" laziness is a sin.

To many marital crises abound these days caused by men, instead of focusing on men that are supposed to build and nurture their home, you focus more of women because of useless ego, thank God we are in an era where women are becoming enlightened, no more enduring bullshit in marriage, you misbehave, you go your separate ways.
Stop twisting the bible to your fantasies
The word submit does not exist in that verse

Nothing is "useless" about the human body. That's the difference between us Christian men and you atheist gender identity obsessed feminists.
We treasure and adore God's creation and the woman is God's greatest creation alongside man.
We both carry the image of God and He does not love or despise any gender over another.
Compare that to your case where you are willing to deny a scientific truth in order to advance a lie.

Ok, it should keep fighting for its life. When it’s tired it will give up. Still does not change the fact that it is the only useless chromosome in the human body.

You need to obey the the word of God to make the kingdom of God.
Husband and wife are two human being, each must run the heavenly race according to the bible rules
Who knows maybe you can win the love of your husband by respecting him according to the bible and even wining his heart for God
And who know whether you can win the love of your wife by loving her, according to the bible and even winning her heart for God

Anything that is natural will always happen naturally without any fuss
it is unnatural for a human to submit to to another human, hence the need for people to keep sing the looney tunes of submissiveness to women lol
I found this funny cheesy

The OP quote is a biased philosophy backed with the manipulation of scripture.

Why read Verse 25 before 22 ??
The instruction is first to the Woman, then the Man.

The Bible is Forever Correct.
Leave the Bible out of your shenanigans.

Even in Biblical order, love from God/Jesus comes before the instruction to obey.

Infact, the instruction to obey is hinged on the love of Christ.

Before I continue.

Ephesians 5:25 "Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it"

Ephesians 5:22 "Wives submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord"

Your wife is to be treated with much love, respect, care, attention etc. You are not to be like a boss over, but a good leader to her. She can give you Godly counsel and guide you on matters she knows God's will on. You are not to be domineering, but flexible even as you lead.

On the part of the wife, respect your husband and submit to him. See yourself as a Deputy or Vice President of the home. Submit to him on things that are good and Godly. Anything that God hates and does not conform to God's will, do not submit to anyone on that.

A wife is to be good, humble, not toxic and not rude. A husband too should be good, humble, not to toxic and not rude. Do not give place to the devil in your marriage.

Husbands love your wives. Wives submit to your husbands.

Note: From the insight I got from someone, marry who you can respect.

Happy Sunday.
What is the difference between a boss and a leader? What's the difference between being domineering and leading?

You are not getting me rightly,
There is a relationship between you and your spouse. There is another relationship between you and your God which you have to maintain according to the word of God in order to make the kingdom of God.
You must not because your spouse is not doing right and so you must do wrong. It will amount to sin against God

An adage says that two wrongs can't make a right
Also it is good for a spouse to please God by playing his/ her part rightly and biblically in order to make heaven

Isn't my post agreeing with you?

Or have you automatically assumed that only the husbands are allowed to 'misbehave'?

" Misbehave" is not for married women that wants to remain in marriage.
A man without a fiance can decide that he will marry within a month, in as much he has the financial capacity he will marry
But a billionaire lady can not do such even within a year.
Culturally and religiously, the husband is the head in marriage there is nothing like equality.
Wokeness and feminism is anti marriage. It is only a catalyst to divorce and baby mamaism.
I married a lady ( graduate professional) that I senior with just 2 months
A marriage that has its foundation on Jesus can never crumble so far the couple' s actions are in line with the bible.
I am not saying the husband should misbehave but I am saying a wife must respect and submit to her husband. And the husband must really love his wife.

I knew I was going to get you cheesy

You are free to have your beliefs and definitions of headship however, leave the Bible out of it.

NOWHERE does the Bible condone male misbehaviour under the guise of headship nor does headship equate the right to 'misbehave'.

The Biblical headship is for men to be godly leaders to their wives BY EXAMPLE and the relationship between Christ and the Church was used as a 'type' of the relationship between a man and his wife.

Can you imagine Jesus 'misbehaving' because He & the Church are not equal? Or Him being 'unrighteous' because He can 'get away' with it?

My brother, do as you will, just leave the Bible out of it.
