That is because most women today know they are too sinful to be unconditionally obedient. π

I find you, and your religion, repugnant.
The amount of suffering and pain caused by these vile beliefs is to much to comprehend.
And my anger at the despicable inhumanity of religion is what drives me to oppose religion
and faith based beliefs.
For those who defend belief based on faith, a method of belief formation that allows belief

this piece of human scum, and his smug belief in his putrid religion to exist.

"Do you expect your wife to submit to you?"
No.
If I did, she would leave me.
If I had, she wouldn't have married me.
Been married 15 years next Oct. Knew each other 4 before that.
Originally posted by moonbusI've been married more than 20 years and my spouse and I haven't even ever raised our voices against each other. We've moved country three times and made a stack of joint decisions of a comparable magnitude without ever feeling one was submitting to the other in terms of will or authority or priority. I have known plenty of people who have had marriages that have had a power imbalance built into them, or an assumption to that effect at their very core, but not always successfully.

Originally posted by FMFA successful marriage is not necessarily one in which there are no disagreements. A successful marriage is one in which disagreements, if and when they arise, are settled in a manner which is agreeable to both partners.

Originally posted by FMFIn just over a month my wife and I will have been married 48 years. I have always expected her to submit to me. However, in practice there are many times that I have submitted to her. We also make a lot of joint decisions, but I am sure she would submit to my judgment if I really demanded it.
