Respect is actually reciprocal.

The Queen of England was someone's wife and he couldn't claim superiority to her. Yet I know she respected him and he gave her due respect as Queen.... In short, women are given their due respect In the western world which makes their world amazing....

All these subjugation love in Naija, submit while the man has his way over everything as of he married a braindead person is killing the society
Being a submissive wife doesn't mean u are or should be brain dead. Western marriages aren't anything amazing if that's what ur trying to point. Submission of the wife goes with the husband showing her all the love and care she deserves. Go marry a white man or those in the western world if submission to a man ( ur husband) is impossible for u and leave Queen Elizabeth out of this. There are powerful real African women married to African men and their marriages are very good because the woman knows to separate her public office/ position of power from the home front. You sound like a kid tho(No offense).. when reality slaps u will know how to act. Go and learn true submission in marriages and stop circulating garbage.

Feminism is a frustration agenda that may drive gender equality seekers to doom.

As a matter of fact, i have discovered 3 reasons why feminist and supporters agitate for this.
1. Their level of depression.
2. Pride- which can lead to negligence of responsibility.
3. Being hypnotized - false teachings and advice from peers.

"A real woman will submit to her husband and a real man will love such woman."

Nice write up sweet

You are a bastion of stupidity. Let your money run dry and see if she won't start complaining.... as I said even if the security u offer her isn't financial it could be psychological..... they aren't loyal and "wife" is an idealistic judeo Christian construct. Foolish man.

Portiphars wife wasn't loyal and the nature of girls hasn't changed.

How about Abraham's wife? The one in Islam you call Ibrahim? Why is his sacrifice of the ram in place of Isaac celebrated in Islam as Eid-El-Kabir?

You looked at all the examples in the bible and you stupidly and idiotically decided to pick a heathen named Potiphar! You are an idiot!

The power and authority is divine and God-given. Nature has made the man the more powerful one, physically and emotionally. It has been so since the creation of man. Nothing you can do about it. It is men that created the conditions in which you can claim equality

Women Basically want 3 things
1. the Power and Authority of a man
2. The Privileges of Being a Woman
3. The Accountability of A child.

I pity those ignorant, naive men who are fighting for Equality for women. Those idiots don't realize that they are being cheated,the woman you are fighting for,is trying to overthrow your power. She will expect you to man up and fight for her,or Provide when times are hard. But when times are good,they will drag equality with you. Take the Russian/Ukraine war as a case study. The women are allowed to leave,but the men are mandated to stay. Not a single feminist came out to say women were being Relegated (because they are weak,which is true).
You know why? It is because times are hard,it is war,so they don't have the luxury to be fighting for equality now.

OP Have you ever seen a divorce case where by it's a case of domestic VIOLENCE which is due to the fact of equal right?
U can never see a man divorce a woman because of equal right or violate the woman because of equal right?...
Every man wants a woman dat would have equal right with them in marriage and both would respect each other.
It is women who wants equal right and cant play equal role or have wht it takes to have equal right and want to use her mouth to get equal right dat get violated...no efficient woman gets violated...BAD MOUTHING is the major cause of Domestic violence which no one has ever mentioned or EQUALITY

Eph 5:22-25

Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.

25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

So because westerners decided to be foolish we must be forced to join them in their foolishness? No wonder we have so much confusion in the world today. Nature made man and woman to fulfill specific functions and to change that is to bring confusion. If a woman hits you its okay but if a man retaliates they say Ahh!!! don't you know she is a woman and a weaker vessel. The hypocrisy sickens to the heavens. A male is a male and a female a female. Even in the wild the males are in charge in almost all species of animals. Gorillas, Lions etc. That is the way nature meant it to be. The confusion we have in the western world where the female folks have been given so much power while the men have been virtually emasculated is as a result of changing the natural order of how things were meant to be.
Exactly my thought. The female gender has succeeded in turning the table to a point of relegating the make for house core. And we are busy clapping for them. God never created nan and woman to be equal.
