In most of the parts of the society and in the world at large, male or husband is thought to be the dominant and wife submissive. But, the main thing is this that should wives be dominated by husbands or wife should be dominant???

The marriage between two members of socity gives equal rights to both husband and wife. So, the relationship must also be on equal footings and on equal foundations.

One morning, I was watching this religious show on TV, and it said that men are the foundation of life, and that women are just a build off. I seriously wanted to throw up, because personally, that’s DISGUSTING. Perhaps the show didn’t put any consideration into the fact that WOMEN ARE PEOPLE TOO! Perhaps, according to the Bible, things all started out like that, but in today’s society, equality is key…so why is this even a topic? There is no reason why Men should dominate Women.

it needs to be 50-50. if one is dominant over the other then the other feels inferior and like he or she wil never be better or even be good enough for the other. its just like a house if the roof is more donimant than the foundation, the foundation will soon breakdown and the entire house will fall.

When done correctly, I feel God did does not want the husband walking in front of the wife or vice versa. The Bible says joined together to form one. I believe they are to walk, hand in hand together, through life…..side by side as equal partners.
yes, they have different roles. It is obvious to scientists as well as most educated individuals that their physical and emotional make-ups are different. Originally, God designed man (visibly more muscular) for greater physical strength for his purpose was to represent the strength of the family. He originally was the main bread winner in the family. Next, the woman ( designed emotionally for support of her family) was the main nurturer in the family. Yes, the husband and wife are equal in God’s eyes but He gave them very different roles.

well, if she is INTO that sort of thing...7% Voted for by NeferMaatNetjer, Piscean Wisdom, petethemeat, Oral Fixation, Enma Ai.
Some women like it kinky. They like to be tied up and spanked a little. Who are men to say no? If ropes and paddles turn her on, then hey, whatever makes the sex interesting to both parties.

It is a beautiful relationship in which all the joys and sorrows can be shared by husband and wife. So, its foundation must be on the principles of truth, trust, loyalty and equality.

No compromise on such a relation where husband dominates; rather, he must give wife equal placement in all decision making and then implementation on such decisions.

Not Necessary4% Voted for by Andy Stephenson, Mujtaba H Zaidi, Piscean Wisdom.
I don’t feel that marriage is necessary. However, if a couple marry they should honor the verbal contracts they made as much as possible. Hard to do when so many make promises of forever which no one owns.

we do what we can. I'm a woman, you're a man.2% Voted for by Pleading Artichoke, Piscean Wisdom.
I think it depends on the people; a man can be dominate, but don't you all meet spinelss or stupid men? Do you never see a powerful woman? Do what works best. If the woman is a better leader, then she can take charge and vice-versa. If they are equally stubborn, or equally lenient, then they cna co-operate.man? Woman? How about people?
'sides what if they're both female? Do they have to go find a man to tell 'em what-for? -
um, Jesus2% Voted for by Energizer Bunny, jonesz12.
I think that the main thing should not be who dominates who. If you want your relationship to contain 100% male decisions or 100% female decisions, or split it up in any manner in a range between that whatever. What matters is that Christ is the center of the marriage, not who rules over who. Paul says, Husbands are to love their wives and give their lives for their wives, as Christ gave his life for the church.

Equality is best but,2% Voted for by flipflopinTM, Mila7.
I have found that women in a family are more dominant. In my family and extended family the women dominate more because if Momma's not happy no one is. Trust me. They are the bread winners and make the decisions because the men know they will have to deal with nagging if they disagree. Now don't get me wrong it's not a tyranny but the women have more say in my family and I like that. I think ,though, that it's more the way the women are raised than their gender. Ithink Pleading Artichoke has a point.

never2% Voted for by kensdream, Enma Ai.
husbands and wives have their own roles to play. men and women were created to compliment each others' shortcomings and limitations. there are things that husbands/men cannot do that wives/women can do and vice versa. so not one should be superior to the other.

We are equals, democratic2% Voted for by BabyMowgli, frndofyaweh.
Submit means; to be in agreement with the other. Not to become slave to the man. NO woman should submit to a drunkard or wife beater. You submit to a perfect husband in a working marriage. All decisions are made by all involved(family or husband and wife). A wife should be virtuious. This means: goodly, powerful woman, worthy, rightious. She is the builder of her families reputation, literally. Her example and her encouragement is the drive of the husbands sucess. Men are weaker, without them.

bible=not a good starting point for philosophy.. or anything
1 Corinthians 11:3-10 - "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,a 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."pnktrky

Corinthians 11:3-10
This was intended for the church of Corinth to dismay their disfigured leadership style and transexual practices. It was of vital importance that the church understood the value of such positioning, as opposed to the detestable pagan ways that they had assumed.likewhatitis100

Husband and wife are marital roles.
So, there is a marital role called husband and another one called wife.
So, define husband marital role and wife marital role.
Lets see if they are equal
