Religious circles and even our traditions and customs advocate that the woman must be submissive to men. It seems derogatory and out of place in the 21st century. How can I be subject to another person, more so to a man simply because he is a man? Well, I think we have the picture wrong.
I am not speaking from a religious point of view but logically and in fact, as a strong advocate of girl power. Submission is not all those things we have been led to believe by radical feminists. It does not mean submitting your will or being subservient to another person. Also, submission is not a term confined to marriage. It is just as important in your relationships (although I confess it can be quite challenging).
The idea of submission is simply that for there to be significant progress, there must be someone in the lead. Let us look at the example of a ship- there is a captain and first mate. The first mate has authority too but submits to the decision of the captain but that does not make one a slave to the other.
From observation, I have come to learn that when a woman submits to her man, it is therein that she wields the most power. Women are more powerful than they think. When you allow him to take the lead, he comes to respect you and value your opinions because he knows that you have chosen to place yourself under him. Women who can get their men to do anything do so from the standpoint of submission. It may seem contradictory but try it and see.
It is thus left to you to find a man who is worthy of your submission so he does not take advantage of it.
