Feminists Outraged After Female Author Writes Book Encouraging Women to Get Married and Be

A self-help book based on Old Testament principles of the Bible written by a 43-year-old married Italian journalist and mother of four advising women to be submissive to their husbands in marriage is now causing an international uproar from feminists around the world.

The book, Cásate y sé sumisa, translated Get Married and Be Submissive, has even drawn the ire of a high ranking political figure in Spain in the form of that country's health minister Ana Mato, who according to The Telegraph, said: "I think it is inappropriate and disrespectful to women."

According to the report, from the very first pages, author Costanza Miriano declares to women: "we are not equal to men and to not recognize this is a guaranteed source of suffering."

Let em wail and gnash their teeth.
I, for one, also hope that they get so enraged that they really do something stupid...really stupid, for all the world to see. On top of that, they’re ugly...both inside and out. I think one of the main reasons good men turn gay are because of ugly feminists....LOL

I found it interesting that the 3 skanks in the photo destroying one of the books have faces that would make a freight train take a dirt road! Men; can you imagine facing something like that across the breakfast table, while she bitches and tells you all the things you did wrong in the previous 24 hours?!

OTOH, take those same 3 faces, but rather than being hard, spiteful, dissatisfied faces; now let them glow with the inner beauty of being submitted to The Lord Jesus, and let them love being a female and the honors that come with being “the hand that rocks the cradle,” and those same 3 women become consorts, lovers and best friends to a man; and he with her, rather than miserable, carping, demanding shrews.

A woman CANNOT be a man. She has neither the plumbing nor the “tackle” for it. IMHO.

Where’s the hate crime accusations against the troll who recently wrote a TIME article on how men should be brainwashed?

Marxists are tolerant of everything except people who disagree with their world view.

Guess which group of women are happiest?

"I think it is inappropriate and disrespectful to women."

No more inappropriate or disrespectful than a gaggle of homely harridans haranguing women to give up their homes and families and challenge men at every step.

"we are not equal to men and to not recognize this is a guaranteed source of suffering."

I would rephrase that to say 'we are not THE SAME as men.' Women are every bit mens' equal, but that doesn't mean they are as good at being men as men are. THERE is the source of their suffering.

The irony is that, in trying to out-man men, women are STLL letting men set the boundaries. In other words, the feminazis who insist that women can only be complete if they can do all the things men can do are defining themselves in terms of male-dom, not female-dom. If it's so great to be a woman, why are you trying so hard to be a man?

Ugly feminists make men turn to net porn, I’m sure, but I don’t think many men are switching sides solely because of them.

I know several men who’ve turned from decades being hetero to bi or gay. One of them used to be my friend for several years, married, and then like a totally different personality hovering and hinting and then a full confession...he wanted me to move in with him AND his wife. Believe me, I fully appreciate a woman’s situation when a man is constantly steering the conversation *oh so subtly!* in a “Hell No” direction. It ended with a brief violent encounter, now we rarely see each other and “hello” is about it.

I don’t think it’s the fault of crazy women, it’s men with nothing inside and something twisted sets up housekeeping in there.

Viva the fitting, but this does not mean one should be submitting to the other. Fitting is fitting, submitting is being surrounded. Each part of a couple has their bad days and moments of irrationality. Why wouldn’t a sane person want their partner to protect them from themselves? Why would we want to promote the Muslim view of women and marriage??? A Dutch film maker produced “Submission” about Muslim views of women and marriage and was assassinated by Muslims.

Things weren’t perfect, but in many jobs a man could earn enough to support a family. Not so easy today, especially if you want to send your kids to college.

What kind of ‘female’? A female bear?

Am really enjoying these old Beaver episodes. I had an older brother...and while he tried to protect me...he also got me to climb the school roof, rob cherries after dark, pick worms, deliver newspapers, ride double on the back of his bike on a hill with a 12% slope, put fish in mom's washtubs (almost late for school).

Yes Beaver...you were an idol.

"I don't know the coloring the word has in English but I don't use it in a negative way it's a word taken from the Letter to the Ephesians. It doesn't mean in any way being like a doormat for the husband. I use it in the etymological sense of being beneath or underneath providing the support like a column supports a roof because we as women we are stronger," explained Miriano.
Excellent article. Loved it all; thank you. I have taped to the wall by my computer the readings of December 29, which include the bible verse about being submissive [subordinate]. I need to be constantly reminded of same. In the RC missalette, that verse is bracketed, whereby it can be left out if the priest wishes to do so. At the Mass we were at this year, it was left out. http://www.usccb.org/bible/readings/122913.cfm

I remember a priest telling me in confession, that if I ever complained about my husband in front of the kids, EVEN ONCE, they'd be nothing but spoiled brats.

This woman sounds like an idiot but getting worked up over what she’s written is counterproductive. Her stupidity alone is enough.

Submitting in the sense of Biblical submission. Means that when appropriate; you put the other persons needs ahead of yours in some situations.

It doesn’t mean that a woman should be generally submissive or denigrate herself in anyway. Or that she is in any way inferior to a man.
But yes different. Thank goodness we are different.

What are the fang-toothed feminazis outraged and angry about now? That men exist? That they can’t be like men?
