There is nothing in Christianity which suggests that women are to be subordinate to men.

That is simply not true. You seem to have ignored Scripture in the New Testament cited in the article which clearly states that the woman is subject to the man and gives the reasons why.

You don't seem to be aware that we are under the New Covenant of the grace of Jesus Christ contained in the New Testament of the Bible which is where these Scriptures live. We are no longer under the Old Covenant of the Old Testament. It seems that you either don't know the New Testament, or don't believe it, or don't care.

When my wife was alive we had a marriage between equals. Each did different things but not through any “compulsion”. When she passed I had to assume many of her roles. She had the last word in appointing the decor, the home organization and was allowed to drive which is probably on the forbidden list. Because of my training I had most say financial decisions after speaking with her. The idea of some man bossing her around against her will is hilariously ludicrous.

I note you avoid the issue of what should be done when the husband is any idiot, a bum, a drunkard or a Moslem. A quote or two in the New Testament does not overcome the far different civilization we live in.
