Would you vow to submit to your husband?

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

This must be from that prissy faced right wing bishop Jenson. He makes my flesh crawl with his smiling smug face and oh so self-righteous views.

What a laugh!!

I wouldn't vow to submit to anyone. Wonder what drives women who do that?

SUBMIT???? Not on your life!!

Aren't some people daft? If it was up to them, women would be subservient and chained to the kitchen. Twits!

Who in their right mind woul voluntarily vow to submit to anyone? I wouldn't vow to 'obey' and that was 37 years ago.

Never did; never would.

I know a girl, then 23 who did. She was intelligent and well educated. She belonged to very evangelical wing of the C of E which I think led to this.

To say the least I was astonished.

Nope.

Submit? Do they also still include obey in the vows? - we might as well as break out the burkas

greatnan that's FUNNY! Or maybe not ... But I'm sure there are many women who meekly say they'll submit and then proceed to dominate and terrorise their husbands too.

Good point, Grannyknot! And he could hardly sue....

I promised to obey 45 years ago today. It was my choice.fortunately it was very rarely we disagreed. That wasn't to say we didn't have rows!

Actually rowing with my husband was VERY FRUSTRATING! He always refused to argue and that would make me madder. This would go on until I totally lost it!
He really could be the most infuriating person I knew.
I used to grow things until he learnt that he was safe as long as he didn't duck! I was a lousy shot! Still am! That's why my waste paper basket is always empty but surrounded by various pieces of paper!

THROW NOT GROW!

Certainly not!

Submit? No way! I never agreed to 'obey' either.

Jeni My DH refuses to argue as well and it's soooooooo frustrating. I jump around and get myself all worked up and then go away and have a good cry - feel a lot better after that!

MEN!

Definately not! Way back in 1975 I also refused to obey.

Definitely not. If marriage is not a partnership of equals it's doomed from the start.

I wouldn't marry anyone who wanted either 'submit' or 'obey' in the vows!

NO...not ever...no matter...simples!
