Would you vow to submit to your husband?

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

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

MEN!

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!

Certainly not!

THROW NOT GROW!

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!

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!

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

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.

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

Nope.

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.

Never did; never would.

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

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

SUBMIT???? Not on your life!!

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

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!!
