The bible says that a woman is to b submissive to her partner I agree the man is hand of house hold. Why do u think God made Adam first, by the time Eve was created Adam had know God, named the animalsl ,as well had gotten the rules of the garden (house ) of God. When she wasn't submissive to the order of control CHAOS.
The same n a house hold if a female partner is not submissive to the control of the leader of the house the relationship ends n disaster
Do u agree if not Y

Hell no..I lived in abusive marriage for years because he thought I should be submissive and I was brought up to be a strong, independent woman. Marriage is a partnership and I am an equal partner. I am not less then him because I am a woman.

The heck? A female needs to be just as equal as her partner. She doesn't need to be submissive, what century are we in? You are coming in a religious stand point and I respect that you are religious but this is just silly. Women are fighting for equal rights right now, if you haven't paid attention to the news at all. If a woman wants to be a housewife, that isn't her being submissive, that is just her wanting to take care of the house, she doesn't HAVE to be that way because of some book. A woman can be the bread winner of the family just like any man. More marriages fail because the partnership is not equal. That is the problem. I pity any man who thinks he is more important than his wife because he is "head of house" there is no such thing anymore. We all need to be seen as equal. Geez this is what we have to have these marches because of bull like this.

@Jancher73 Pretty sure "God" is more open minded than we think. Probably laughing up in heaven wondering why we are taking these words so seriously when really all his intention was, was to make a world of flaws and learn from them. Not to make any woman or man lesser of each other. God says to not worship any other idols but him...why is man put in front of a woman expect to be dominate? Isn't that just a way to worship another person before God? Yeah, no. Get with the times. Learn what feminism is. And stop thinking women should be submissive.

And men are supposed to love their wives as Jesus loves the church. Being submissive does not mean getting controlled by the husband. My husband and I are Christians and we both feel we are a team-and that's what works for our marriage.

Submissive - submitting without objection or resistance, ready to conform to the authority or will of others, Meekly obedient or passive

There 4 but I'll just give u 1 according to Ephesians 5: 22 Wives, submit to your own husbands as to the lord. If the female partner not beening submissive than shes not doing her part, female partners must submit to the husband as if he's the Lord

I think the way it has been translated was so literal that I rather comment no further.

I believe women are our equals. I personally view religion as a means of control. Of course there are many good things that come from it. It's important that religions modernize. You do see this with Christiananity,as I believe it has evolved quite a bit and the Bible isn't taken so literal as it once was. To me,saying women should be submissive to a man is oppression and I am against this in any form. We must look at the times the books of the Bible were written. Big difference between then and now :) xx

@Jancher73 true.. but man's interpretation isn't. I'm not calling into question your beliefs/faith. As long as they are not hurting anyone,i say to each their own. Myself personally I have drifted away from religion when I was old enough to begin to question what feels true to me as opposed to being what told what I should and shouldn't believe.
I have come to the conclusion that while there are good points and value to live by in the Bible,so much of it,especially the old testament,make God out to be jealous,angry,vengeful,etc. Those are qualities of man,not a Divine being. Christ comes along and teaches God is about compassion and forgiveness more so. I believe Christ was a very spiritually evolved soul and much about him has been contorted to drive an agenda. That should give you more of on idea where I'm coming from and why.
As I said,to each their own. I will agree to disagree yet get along with others. I will not attempt to impose my beliefs on another,and I certainly will not oppress another living being. Anything that says otherwise has no place in my life.. xx :)

It depends on the situation and your agreement with your partner.

I don't really agree with you. Maybe we just have different type of culture but as a woman working with only men I feel sad sometimes that some men always try to put me down even I can do things better than them. I hear a lot that women belong to the kitchen not in the garage because that's only for men. No not me. I know how to cook but my heart is not there so I keep doing what I love. This is just example I know it's not about relationship

The bible says alot that can be argued. Personally, I don't agree that a woman should be submissive to her man. I get that men are usually the head of households but we are now in 2017. There are men who believe in this and it's quite sickening especially when they are abusive to their partners and use it as intimidation. My husband and I have different beliefs and ideas and we both have compromises to most things but he knows I will never be submissive. I always stand up for myself in my marriage.
