God gave everyone a brain so I believe that women can think for themselves. But I do also think that the man is in charge of the house, as long as he is a good and respectful man. He should be open to womens thoughts, feelings etc.

A woman should be submissive to her husband as the Bible brings out.
But a wife is treated with respect and he has deep love for her. He treats her as he would treat his own body.
Ephesians 5:28, 29. states: 28 In this way husbands ought to be loving their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself, 29 for no man ever hated his own flesh; but he feeds and cherishes it, as the Christ also does the congregation, 30 because we are members of his body.
The Bible book of Proverbs tells of a husband who "has put trust" in his wife. Moreover, "he praises her." (Proverbs 31:11, 28) He is not obsessively jealous, nor is he unreasonable in his expectations. James wrote that the wisdom from above is "peaceable, reasonable, . . . full of mercy and good fruits."—James 3:17.
