11 Let a woman learn in quietness with all subjection.
12 But I don't permit a woman to teach, nor to exercise authority over a man, but to be in quietness.
13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.
14 Adam wasn't deceived, but the woman, being deceived, has fallen into disobedience;
15 but she will be saved through her childbearing, if they continue in faith, love, and sanctification with sobriety.
1 Timothy, chapter 2, verses 11 through 15
18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord."
That is Colosians, chapter three verse
Then, it turns around and says: "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus"
Also, here is an online, searchable bible so you cant say that i took this out of context. The surrounding text isnt any better.
