I think I really understand the plan God had in mind for us. He said the husband is to be the head of the wife. He also said the husband must be willing to lay down his life for his wife so I do not see where in any way, God is saying my life is less worthy than my husbands.

There should be one vote per household and it should be the husbands. That doesn't mean the wife may not exert influence over the husband but he will still be one taking the vote.

I actually see God's plan as putting women on a pedestal to where we don't have to do those things. Let the men do it. The problem is too many men are willing to abdicate their responsibility.

I guess I'm saying I wouldn't mind being a kept woman. It's just not working out that way around here. :)

I’m glad to hear from another woman who can see clearly.
I am a Christian now but I found my way to God through Conservative Judiasm. They say there that women don’t have to go to shul (church) because they bear children and have a “direct line to God”. The men have a different relationship with God and have things they have to do which frankly, I have no desire to emulate.

God made us all, but gosh darn it, we are different sexes and cannot equalize no matter how much we discover about DNA and socializing trends and stuff.
