What does submission mean to you?

It is not submission or act of slavery to our life partner.It is just sharing married life responsibilities.It could be act of slavery for some people and submission for some people.Are you ever think in way of husbands,what happens if they also thought like that and make their mindsets the burden of responsibilities etc etc.Then think for a moment that if both husband wife thinks like that then how the marriage goes.In most cases when people gets married no matters that male or females then they naturally adopt his/her responsibilities towards marriage successfully.Don't worry about it.I think you are going to married thats why you ask such questions or in other case you are newly married.

Hi, I'm a muslim and I'm married to a wonderful man. In Islam, submission means being loyal and care for her dignity. Of course when you're married, your husband will be the head of the home or the primary breadwinner. Somehow you also have your rights to give out opinions and advice as well as making decisions in taking care of the households. In my marriage, decision making is 50-50. But most of the time I will head the decision making where my husband will provide the necessities, like groceries shopping, furnitures, clothes shopping.. To me, head of the home means the primary breadwinner and provider. A wife can help only if she's capable to help. A husband will make a decision, given that his wife agrees to it :)

it's not a part of my marriage. we are equals. no one is dominant or submissive by gender. in personality, I tend to be more the more dominant in character, and because he's quite laid back and easy going I very often end up taking the lead. on the other hand I am quite an indecisive person, so if it comes to making descisions about what we're going to do or where we're going, he very often makes that choice. however when it comes to dinner, I usually decide, as I am more likely to feel like something in particular or not feel like eating something particular. he's quite happy to eat the same meal several days in a row, whearas I get bored if I've eaten the same thing at all recently. so all in all, we are equal. our personalities compliment each other well. we are well balanced. there is no NEED for submission in a relationship. just understanding and co-operation. people seem to claim that there has to be someone that takes the final decision, but why should it always be the same partner? and why should the one who makes that choice be decided by which genitals they have? every single person has different qualities they bring to a relationship. we each have our strengths and our weaknesses. so we should each be aware of who has the most knowledge in a certain area, or the most skills, and choices should be drawn from the couples combined knowledge, with respect to the fact that one may have more knowledge or experience in that field than the other.

I am also a christian and we are told to submit to our husbands. But submission in a way that it does not violates the rules of God. If your husband make you a slave, it violates the rules of God, so we don't submit in those ways.
