As a woman and a wife, I found that quite insulting.

Well don't pretend Christianity isn't a patriarchy.
Christianity clearly holds the husband as the ruler of his family.
Of course that being said, it also teaches the King should be the servant of the people. A ruler that does not listen to his people is considered foolish.

In the Christian faith men are suppose to be head of the house hold, but yes I guess they do encourage the men to talk things over with their wives before making a final decision.

This stems from a patriarchal basis in the Christian Religion, so really you can't get away from that kind of mentality.

As a PERSON I find that insulting.
SOMETIMES we have good ideas???
Ladies, don't marry a guy who doesn't listen to you.
You shouldn't need a minister or priest to tell you that.

My pastor says just the opposite: women should always listen to their husbands.
Sounds like you go to a better church than my baptist church.

I dont see why a man would want to marry
a woman that he doesnt want to listen to?
and vise-versa
It sort of defeats the purpose of team effort.
must be miserable
