I think it's ironic that the statement mentions childbirth while declaring the wife the weaker partner. Further, than respect is somehow tied to who has the might, and thusly sets the terms. Respect, in this context, is a gift bestowed upon the "weak" by the "strong". I'll pass. I think I'll continue to respect my wife -as though she were her own -....mostly because she is. She's not stainless, or blameless, or any of that happy horseshit - because she isn't a porcelein doll, and who the fuck would want that anyway?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust.

I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
