Ha! Cheryl – I see our little off blog conversation sparked something in you. Do I sense the beginnings of a “Proverbs 31 marriage” model?

This idea that men have some superior godly wisdom or some uniquely male conduit to God has never made any sense to me. Well, in all honesty, it makes perfect sense to my male ego, but no sense to my human mind. It ignores three realities:

*Many men are dumb as a post.
*Many men “lean on their own understanding” instead of seeking God. (In fact, women seem to be the ones with the conduit…or at least, the ones who recognize and use the conduit)
*And finally (this will irk the “sameness” folks out there but it must be said) men in general are less intuitive than women.

Even if every man pursued wisdom in a way that would make CBMW proud and their wives appreciative, they simply can’t know EVERYTHING. That is why “two are better than one”. Duh.
