Ok, that's fair.
A the spiritual head of a household doesn't mean that the husband gets to lord it over his wife. If you look at the what the Bible says about how a husband is the head of the wife... and the HUGE responsibility that lays on his shoulders:
Ephesians 5:25-33 NKJV (I just find the NKJV is easier to read, honestly)
25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, 26 that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, 27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. 28 So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. 29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. 30 For we are members of His body,[a] of His flesh and of His bones. 31 “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.”[b] 32 This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church. 33 Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
I'm glad I'm a woman and that my role is wife... maybe someday again. All I 'have' to do is respect and submit to the ministry of my husband as my husband and head. He's got to love me enough to lay down his life. He's got to love me like he loves his own body. He's responsible to God for the spiritual well being of our marriage/family.
Matthew Henry, in his exposition of the Old and New Testament says:
[h=1]“Women were created from the rib of man to be beside him, not from his head to top him, nor from his feet to be trampled by him, but from under his arm to be protected by him, near to his heart to be loved by him.[/h]Far too often women see men point to the Bible DEMANDING submission when, in all honesty? We are rather likely to easily submit if we are treated as well as our husband treats himself.
