That is mainly in the Old Testament. And it worked 2,000 years ago, because women had no rights. If they obeyed their husband, they really had it easier than if they went out on their own and tried to fend for themselves. Obeying your husband meant he was pleased, and thus more freedom, more wealth, more happiness on both sides. It does not apply to today because women are closer to equality with men now.

Some of us have no problem with living as the Bible says. I rather prefer being female and being treated as such. I only have to honor him and obey, he has to love me always. I think I get the better deal.

The Bible is not sexist. Women are not lesser beings than men.

If you read the rest of that verse, it seems that the man and woman in a marriage have very important responsibilities to each other.

You are incorrect. It is not sexist, but it does call an order to society. Railing against Christ will not lessen Him...it only lessens you.
