Can't be bothered to read between my last post and this one, just link it if it's materialized.You mentioned my main point yourself. Evolution resulted in men being bigger and stronger than women, and men used that strength to keep women subservient. Waiting a day or two then pretending it didn't happen is pretty lame, even for you.

I thought you were saying misogyny is realism.Yes, there's frequently some misunderstandings in this format. To clarify, I say that recognizing differences between the sexes is realism. But, while I see women's roles as different than those of men, I don't see those roles as inferior, so I disagree on misogyny.
Correct me if that's actually what you believe, but I had pegged you as a level headed guy after the other thread I encountered you in, so this thread threw me through a loop. Are you aware that if you're being sarcastic you need to note so with an emoticon or something? Otherwise your assertion will be taken at face value?
Quote:Please explain what you feel the woman's "place" is in relation to her husband? And how do you balance that with what the bible claims she should be?No.
1. If she wanted to be a preacher, would you be by her side in that endeavor?
Quote:2. Is she your advisor yet you're the final word on the matter?Yes.
Quote:3. Do you really think women's place is in the kitchen or making babies? (you didn't answer me directly on that one, either)Actually I'm the better cook, but she's catching up. As for babies, well, yeah, unless you want the race to die out.
Quote:4. If she ran for congress would you have any objections?Yes, seems like it would be a big waste of time as she's never held office of any kind.
Quote:5. If she bought land would you feel she was out of her realm?No. You're showing your ignorance of the Bible with that one:
Prov 31
16 She considers a field and buys it;
From her profits she plants a vineyard.
Quote:6. Do you hold scorn for women in general for man's Fall?No. The Bible holds Adam responsible, so why would I?
Quote:7. Do you feel women are inept and require men to keep them on the right path?No.
Quote:8. Do you believe that if she divorced you she's going to hell?No.
Quote:9. Do you agree or disagree with the bible regarding these claims? And if so how does that translate to your marriage?I agree with them. So does my wife. How does it translate to our marriage? As said above, I have the final say, that's all.
Bible Wrote:"But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God." (I Corinthians 11:3)
"For the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man." (I Corinthians 11:8-9)
Those verses don't bother my wife. You know what does?
Matt 22
23 The same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him and asked Him, 24 saying: “Teacher, Moses said that if a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife and raise up offspring for his brother. 25 Now there were with us seven brothers. The first died after he had married, and having no offspring, left his wife to his brother. 26 Likewise the second also, and the third, even to the seventh. 27 Last of all the woman died also. 28 Therefore, in the resurrection, whose wife of the seven will she be? For they all had her.”
29 Jesus answered and said to them, “You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels of God[b] in heaven.
She adores me so much she's actually a little apprehensive regarding heaven, because she can't imagine life without me. Pretty sweet.

The argument is DOA on the basis of bare and deplorably infantile potential arguments. Your silly little god myth doesn't have the juice to make your womenfolk bow before you anymore. To be honest I doubt that it ever did, or we would be at a loss as to explain precisely why the judicious and regular application of a closed fist was required. Get a grip.
Oh yeah, they evolved to be smaller and weaker than men, so they can't.
