This is nothing new. It's actually 6000 years old. As Satan deceived Eve in the garden and Adam went along with it, so now, in a society that has turned from trusting God, Satan has again deceived women and men are going along for the ride to the destruction of society and infanticide of the unborn.
So.. relatively new then?
Yes.
Men’s movement too.
I see all sorts of whining cry babies, including here, who couldn’t keep their wife and blame everything but their own selves.

There are arguments about whether women should be wearing hats “in church” today. I would posit the principle of respect is more important than how it is implemented in practice. Cultural expressions of gender specific conduct differ from society to society. This looks like a situation where women already were expected by society to wear hats and so for women to go without would be a noticeable breach of etiquette and risk causing offense. We might not need to do that today — a congregation may choose to be permissive about it — because the customs of showing gender specific respect are implemented differently, but again that society would know nothing of our modern “bathroom furors” either, not having the blessing of indoor plumbing.
The guiding practice should be love as God has intended and desired it to be carried out.
This Scripture has context, for which the application is behavior of men and women when the members of a local church are assembled for religious functions. Christian women do not owe obeisance to men in general in the secular environment, IMHO.
To quote a famous fictional Greek wife
Yes but the woman is the neck
As Tommy Sotomayor has pointed out many times, anyone can see what a matriarchal society looks like by driving down your local MLK boulevard.
A lot of it has to do with men who refuse to cover their wives (protect) instead they think this verse means she is your slave and you own her.
Eph_5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Col_3:19 Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
An elder yiddishke mama once told me, that, “Yes, ‘he’ is the head of the family ... however, ‘I’ am the neck that TURNS the head!”
And now, for myself, it has been 16 years now, that my beloved and I have been ‘a team’. We each have our own abode, and each still ‘our honor’, as it were, and with THE question asked, the answer has been ‘no, it would mess up your benefits’. She is my Queen, and it is with all rights, duties, responsibilities, and devoted commitment, to be all, that as her King, I be, to my last shed drop.
The PC crowd cannot understand this, nor can they come to make such a commitment, for to them, it is an imprisonment of ‘self’. The long-engrained epitaph of “find’em, feel’em ... you know the rest (4F’s)” does nothing but create a veneer of what might be, but yet never can be. I was taught this ‘creed’ by my father, who became entrapped, once I ‘was along the way’. Many years and sorrows later, i finally discovered what it is to be ‘a Queen’s King’, and the joy of commitment and being teamed to one who has come to know the adage ‘iron sharpens iron’.
It works for us, and it sets an example for her granddaughter, who has adopted me as her grandfather.
Research the Jezebel and Ahab spirits. You’ll easily see the connection between today’s feminist/antichrist thinking and the Whore of Babylon.
Yeh ever since women quit covering their heads the world has just gone to chit. Its all their fault. They just don’t know their place anymore.
Here’s a hanky for you to boo hoo in. LOL!
