We may contend that he failed with his own marriage, but he spoke the plain, cringe-worthy truth.

Women should never marry a man they cannot RESPECT and be SUBMISSIVE to.

That is why sometimes it is quite beneficial for the age gap between the two to be at least not less than 5 years.

A woman has the duty of respecting the man she married, while a man has the duty of giving his woman a personality she can respect.

No woman will respect a drunken man or an alley cat who chases skirts all day long.

The man, being the HEAD must lead by words and most importantly by EXAMPLE.

The wife should look up to her husband as a role model.

She protects him spiritually, he protects her physically.

Together they nurture and grow their family.

Shut up idiot. Your husband is your lord and your master. Take it or leave it. Marriage isn’t for everyone

I've seen couples with less than 5 years age difference and some with their wives older and still build enviable homes. It's beyond age Sir.

I didn't generalize though, I added the word "sometimes".

truth is, no two marriages are the same.

but I feel a considerable age gap MAY help.

MizAijay:
Well, my husband doesn't see life in this sad and myopic way. Truly, marriage isn't for everyone and I feel really sad for your wife/slave (that's if you have one) as you have the tendency to be a very tyrannical "Lord". Bye!

LordKO:
Aside the unsavoury connotation of the word "master" in this context - an euphemistic word like leader would've been better - his submission is almost perfectly in order. And it would've been perfectly in order had he used the word leader and say that, a leader is one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way - because one who doesn't believe that "he who comes into equity must come with clean hands" isn't qualified to answer a leader.

A husband and wife aren't partners; They're simply husband and wife - with the man as first between the two. The head. Egalitarianism doesn't mean absence of hierarchy and conscientiousness.

Love begets submissiveness; And the difference between the two remains in their names and applications - neither is a sign of weakness. Men love your wives, women be submissive to your husbands.
