Religion was made for man and not the other way round. The heart of man is desperately wicked, that was why some selected individuals fought for some basic rights (human rights) to be given to all humans.
The Bible admonishes wives (not women) to be submissive to their husbands (not men). I personally don't have a problem with respecting my husband, and I don't see how that should make me an inferior human being.
Human Rights Activists fight for equality btwn men and women; they are only asking that men and women should have the same rights as human beings.
Maybe you should study a little history, before the advent of human rights, a woman can not talk when important discussions are going on. Women were (and are still treated by ur types) as chattels, something to be used and inherited. In the western world, before the advent of civilization, women were not allowed to vote or own properties in their name, whatever they own belongs to their husband after marriage. Women were ill treated by the men and had no say in who they marry.
We thank God for today, now women have been liberated from slavery, and not ur type nor any other person will take us back to that era.
Women don't allow anybody (whether male or female) to brainwash u in the name of religion. Am a Christian, but if we are to follow the teachings of the Bible, then we are all condemned. Don't single out any teaching in the Bible to achieve ur own selfish intention, if u want to follow the Bible, follow it in its entirety.
And don't say ur a Christian so the laws of the old testament does not apply to u; remember, Jesus said, He has not come to destroy the Law but to complete the Law. We are all under the period of grace, and I believe in the Grace of God and not the law, for by the law we are condemned. Remember, when asked, Jesus said, the greatest commandment of all is LOVE: love the Lord ur God with all ur heart and soul and love ur neighbor as urself. If you want to advice or preach anything in marriage, preach/advice LOVE.

Just start preparing for divorce then...
I will definitely prefer to be divorced than be with someone has no personal sense of justice. tongue

A man should respect his wife and wife respect husband.

She should not be your subordinate but your partner.

If you need a subordinate get a slave or a dog! That way you know that you are the master cheesy

Will they listen? Or even read? Girls of these days are parasitic in nature, most of them that is...
u are funny. women should b submissive 2 their husbands (no argument there) but what happens when the man is not being fair? d whole idea here is respect, luv and understanding. didnt d bible comand men to luv their wives as christ have luved d church? are they obeying dat command 2day? a man cheats on his wife, beats her up, barely provide or spend time with his family, yet he complains about his wife not being submissive. men justifies their action based on culture but women are critisized based on religion. pls lets reason as humans

Re: What You Must Know/do Before You Get Married As A Christian Lady by Nobody: 11:45am On Mar 13, 2016
So true...a woman would get her man to do anything soon as she shows submission, but an equal partner is a rival, a good man will contend with his rival till he's dominant...I have always insisted that I want a wife, not a partner..if I need a partner I can always incorporate a business.

So what do u say, discard God's directives on marriage as it puts too much pressure on the womenfolk abi? Are you a christian?

Mind u, I didn't ward off the Bible, I only advised u stopped using the Bible as an instrument of oppression and domination over women.
Mind u, Apostle Paul while teaching about marriage did not command women to submit to men, rather he advised wives to submit to their husbands,and that was just to ensure peace in the home.
As I earlier stated, I don't have a problem with a wife submitting to her husband as I intend to do same, what I don't agree with is the points u stated: husband is the master; husband and wife not equal; wife's beauty lies in obedience,etc. What ur implying is that; a wife is a servant, or rather a slave bought by a man to entertain himself and for procreation. For there to be a happy marriage, both the husband and the wife must respect each other, and see the value in each other. Marriage is never and shouldn't be a master /servant relationship.
Mind u, am a practising Christian and that is why I made reference to the Bible and the teachings of Jesus in my earlier post.

Now I get it...lol.. Your grouse is with the domestic chores wives are subjected to in the home. That's something u'd desperately hope to end before you become a wife, as you don't have the stomach for homely duties, wouldn't you? A Nigerian home where husband and wife share the chores equally eh? Good luck with that lady, but leave this intelligent write-up and the Bible out of it.

Read his number 2 point, he made reference to feminist movements. What are feminist movements? These are organizations that fight for the realization of equal rights between the men and the women. Saying a woman is not equal to a man touches the fundamental human rights of every woman, hence my point.
The Constitution which is the ground norm in Nigeria criminalize the discrimination of any person based on sex etc. Even the Bible commands us to respect constituted authorities.

Read again. He only stressed on the fact that feministic ideologies don't help the average woman in marriage. He did not play down the roles feminist movements play in the realization of true gender equality in the society, neither did he say in his article that men were superior to women. Read again ma'am.

When u say two people are not equal, what comes to mind? It means one is superior to the other. He stated clearly in his point number 2,that men and women are not equal. He stated further that men and women can never be equal. From his posts, it can be inferred that one of the prerequisite to a successful marriage is a master/servant relationship. Completely false! For a marriage to last, u need mutual respect, love, understanding, trust and Tolerance! All these I find wanting in his posts.
With reference to your comment on feminist movement, he mentioned it immediately after stating that women are not equal to the men. He went further to state that feminist movements emanates from failed marriages. Very false, they are men who are feminists and they are women who are feminists and happily married. Divorce is very prevalent in our society and in the world at large. People divorce for various reasons and u hardly see a man divorce his wife because she's a feminist. Feminism doesn't ascribe to a woman disrespecting her husband, NO! It only seeks that women should be treated and seen as an equal human being by the male counterpart.
Anybody can be a feminist, even u! All you have to do is understand what it is all about. Though some women misinterpret the doctrine to their own detriment.

I ask again, are you a christian? The original post is for christian ladies who seek happy and successful marriages. Note : 'Christian Ladies'. If you aren't, I don't see why we're having a discussion here.

Debating the word of God as regards marriage with a feminist?? One would have better luck debating the wind. Happy Sunday ma'am. Peace.
