Since you posted your snippet to show how women are owned by men.... try the ENTIRE Pararaph. Perhaps the next one.

1 Corinthians 11
1Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.

Propriety in Worship
2I praise you for remembering me in everything and for holding to the teachings,[a] just as I passed them on to you.
3Now I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. 4Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head. 5And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is just as though her head were shaved. 6If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off; and if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head. 7A man ought not to cover his head,[b] since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. 8For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; 9neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. 10For this reason, and because of the angels, the woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head.

11In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman. 12For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God. 13Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? 14Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him, 15but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering. 16If anyone wants to be contentious about this, we have no other practice—nor do the churches of God.

I didn't say that or imply that. I posted what God says about why women were created. They were created FOR THE MAN, not the other way around.

Since you are a catholic, I don't expect you to take what God says in Scripture too seriously, put please do not lie and claim I said something I did not, or claim that the Bible says something it doesn't.

Corinthians 11:7 For a man indeed ought not to cover his head, forasmuch as he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

8 For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man.

9 Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.

The woman was created for the man.

Genesis 2:18 ¶And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.

As a female, I don't have a problem with the way God ordered things, why do you?

Exactly my point Jaded -- FC, like so many of those who are led astray away from The Church see only one line -- they are quote based Christians, not seeing the forest for the trees. They take one line of the Bible and not the meaning and then cry sola scriptura. Fie on that. They lose the meaning, the majesty and the reason. A little knowledge is very dangerous and that's exceptionally true for the protesting groups.

To refute your statement, the protester will pull up random quotes from various books of the Bible with no string of meaning bar what the person has pieced together, thereby corrupting The Word.
