int3grity,

Thanks for popping in and welcome!

I think you, perhaps, need to reread my post. When a man loves a woman like Christ loves the church, he will not abuse her or override her will. But many men are taught that their position as “head” means to override his wife’s will when there is a conflict of wills. I point out that overriding one’s will is not God’s way. Perhaps, if you believe otherwise you can show where it is God’s way for marriage. I do not see it in scripture and Jesus doesn’t override our will in his marriage with the church. He gently works with us and brings us along with his patience and love.

If you think that chauvinism is only within nominal Christianity, I can point you to Christian counselors who can educate you otherwise.

Thanks again for stopping by. I hope you find a lot of things in my blog that will be very helpful for you!
