I read the article... which part are you asking about?
I generally agree with the latter part of the article regarding verbal and physical purity, though I think the author's perspective is a bit legalistic. There's a difference between 'pure' and 'puritanical'. Couples moving toward marriage need to communicate openly and abundantly; that is a great time to learn, establish, and respect boundaries. Part of that is being clear about one's own standards and expectations.
Regarding the first part of the article, the story presents one gal's experience as instructive for Christian women in general, while overlooking the apparent lack of communication early in her relationship. She wants her husband to take the lead in in the marriage; fair enough, but I wonder if she ever told him that. As the article puts it, 'he seemed to lose interest in rising up and taking charge....' Did he ever have such an interest? Unfortunately, it's a flimsy foundation for the teaching which follows.
The verse quoted from 1 Timothy uses an awkward translation of a key word which implies something the original Greek doesn't; the Greek for 'authority' is 'exousia', which isn't in that verse. The word which is, 'authentein,' is used only that one place in Scripture, and has many meanings over a few hundred years in non-biblical literature. The verse is also presented in a context quite different than its original. It's a stretch at best.
