I think a lot of my fellow-men on this thread have the "submissive" thing all wrong. It's not about you "snapping your fingers" and having her bring you a beer and a sandwich like you were Archie Bunker or something. It's not about that at all!

If you want somebody to wait on you, go to a restaurant or hire a maid!

Submissive (in the biblical sense) simply refers to the wife supporting her husband and accepting him as head of the household and provider. In modern context, it could mean that when the husband's job takes him from say Atlanta to Cincinnati, well she follows him to Cincinnati. It means that she will take your surname and and defer to you on the major decisions (of which you should allow her input and allow her input to play a part in your decision).

With that comes responsibility for the husband. He must assume the role of provider and accept responsibility when the decision is not the right one (and make it right). Above all, he must honor his wife and never do anything to dishonor his wife or his family. It is a two-way street.

The ultimate example of this two way street is the fact that its MEN who are supposed to go to war and die, and if some disaster occurs, women and children are saved first. That’s the responsibility of men. I’m not sure where these feminists get off with their whining and cries for censorship.

How does one think we end up with pajama boy? When you strip away male roles, it strips away male responsibilities. And I guarantee when some disaster strikes, the feminists will be the first to cry when the men bail and leave them stranded with the children. Yeah, lets imagine what pajama boy would have done aboard the Titanic.

I wait on my husband frequently, and I consider it an honor to do so.
