I see your point.
But I have seen a repeated pattern among my peers of wives dominating a marriage. They behave one way, then when the ring goes on, they turn and suddenly think they are wearing a crown. This isn't just the old fashioned "whipped" complaint.
The level of domineering I've witnessed in younger brides, time and again, dwarves that of years gone by. I've seen it too many times for it to just be coincidence. I think its a byproduct of entitled feminism coupled with inequitible divorce laws.
Too many women abuse the trust given by the liability incurred by a marriage license. And when a man just can't take anymore, she gets the golden parachute. Then she repeates the process. Why shouldn't she? It was profitible the first time...
This doesn't apply to all women of course. But it is a notable trend.
You are 100% correct. That is why the Bible says for wives to submit to their husbands.
Feminism is the ultimate proof that we should be careful what we wish for, because we might get it. Ol' Molly here wanted a career and to be financially independent. And she is! Good on her, then. |
