Women lead through their husbands. Their husbands lead through Jesus Christ. If not God is unhappy, if so God is filled with joy. We poor sheep can only wait in awe and wonder for the shepherd to lead us to safe and green pastures. I don't know if I can tell a stranger from my shepherd some times, much less if it is a male or female!

But the prime minister and leading the country has got nothing to do
with leadership and authorities in the church or at home.
If that was applied to every situation, there would never be any women
managers of any grade, never be any women head teachers, never be any
women social workers in charge of people.
There would never be women police offers as they have authority over the
general public. There would never be queens ie as in the queen of England.
A prime minister is not the spiritual leader of the country.

Sometimes I read threads like these, and think that my Native American great grandfather may have been right. He said that white people are crazy. They don't understand woman's place in the world. Woman should be barefoot and pregnant. Man should hunt and fish. I have to admit he practiced what he preached. He had 18 children by two wives, and spent most of his time on the river or in the woods.
Just thought you needed a change of pace. lol.

It's a bit late for "on the day," isn't it? The Iron Lady did it already.
From a biblical stance? She seemed to fit the Proverbs 31 role model in a more modern setting. Deborah did a good job as the judge/prophet/warrior/wife.
I think submitting isn't a lesser role. When I get one of my money-making ideas going, I talk to hubby about it. If he doesn't like the idea, he tells me why. If we can, we go with consensus. If we can't, he gets final vote. As long as the wife gets agreement with hubby, she can do anything.
Hubby agreed to my idea of starting my home-based business. He had no part of running it, but he was an excellent advisor. (When a customer made me leery, hubby made sure he was in hearing distance when the customer came over. The only time he said anything to any of my customer was when the creepy guy thought "I'll see you at 1 PM to look at your resume" meant "stop by whenever you want." He came at noon. I was involved in something too important to answer the door. Hubby came home for lunch. So, we listened to the guy pounding on the front door until hubby left to go back to work at quarter of one. Then he told the guy I'd be available to see him at 1, just like I promised. Hubby is a big imposing man, so they guy slithered back to his car until 1 and came in quite humbly. lol)

Because you're so very young and think 59 is old? Because you think 60 is "ready for the retirement home?" Or 70 is? Because you have yet to realize "grandma types" probably are grandmas, so have already raised their families successfully, or, if they aren't mothers they spent decades developing their skill sets? And as mothers they were still able to raise their families while working in politics? Something kids have yet to do.

Oh, Trump is so the granddad type. He's got granddad screaming out of every pore. (Or, is it just that my grandfather was as quiet and reserved as The Donald?) And Bernie? More of the great granddad type.
Of course, I'm 60, so I'm too young to be Mom yet.
(I really did think I was too young to be a mom until I did the math and realized I was 40, so old enough to be grandmom. lol)

Theresa May was born only a few days before me. 
And most US Presidents were in their 50's & 60's.
I'm not ready for the retirement home yet. Please don't shuttle me away. I got places to go & things to do!!! LOL

I had to check one out for him. I went the big day they had an Elvis impersonator live in their parking lot.
Please, Lord! If I'm ever stuck seeing impersonators make it Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, Eric Clapton, or Alabama Shake. Or... please give me the right to say, "No thanks."

Alive? I was married the year he became President. Iran hostages freed on his first day! No more 18-21% interest rates. He promised trickle down and delivered. ($20 more each week in the paycheck without a pay raise.) By the time he left office, friends of ours bought a house at 4.5% interest rate. Unemployment incredibly low. End of the Cold War. End of U.S.S.R. We were truly proud to be Americans because we put in the effort to make our goods great! When he said something, the world listened. He was all that and a bucket of chips!
Most people who don't like him were too young to remember him. (Well, or air traffic controllers. lol)

And, he's chiefly known by me for stealing the family land and chopping off the heads of guys who complained. (Don't worry. I don't want it back. That's what got us to the New World and I don't like cleaning a small house. I'd never get that one cleaned. And the guards with those hats? How many teddy bears were killed in the making of those...? Oops. Maybe that's why we don't own the land anymore. We're crazy. lol)
