Amen Kay! It is impossible to split a one-flesh union upon leaving the bedroom! I find it incredible that the man should have authority over the wife’s mind but not her body and I think it really comes down to this: the whole concept of the man’s authority is about preferences. The man’s final say, his right to make decisions and to impose them on his wife are all about preferences. Of course this is presented as “responsibility” but when you talk to women, you always hear the same thing: “I wish he would take some responsibility at home instead of leaving it all to me.” So at the end, the man is only protecting his right to live his life as he wishes and to expect his wife to comply with anything and everything he might throw in her way.
