Aren't disobedient wives the reason for the high divorce rate in our country?

Her faithful servant

It's the men that are out of control and being disrespectful. If more men were obedient to their wives, there wouldn't be as high a divorce rate.

I'm thinking ignorant men add to the total too.

Holy crap dude. I hope you are a kid. If not, you have a very LONG way to go, friend.

No offense to you or your views...

Why would you want a "submissive" or "obedient" mate? Those are great qualities in a pet or an employee, maybe...but not your wife! I look on my wife as an equal partner...eye to eye. I'd want nothing less.

No, stupid husbands are about 50% responsible.

sharpeilvr

NO! Your a kid, right?

I am certain (not "almost" as you are) that if men actually loved their wives as Christ loved and honored the church and gave his life for her..... women wouldn't mind submitting more. The same passage in Ephesians 5 also says, "submit one to another." You really must read the context.

If man is the head... the responsibility for the family lies with him.

There is a high divorce rate because of men like you.

I have to disagree with you, although I am sure that couples have gotten divorced because of what you speak of, I think the major culprit behind the divorce rate would have to be either money or infidelity. I don't think however that woman need to be more obedient, after all obedience is what you use when you are referring to a dog. To make a marriage work you need to be mature, reasonable, and display a level of selflessness that many people simply do not have. I blame that on Hollywood and making people believe in the fairy tale, love at first sight BS. Personally I believe that love and marriage take time and effort.

I've been married a long time and I think the reason for so many divorces is simple. You should marry someone who likes you just the way you are and not try to change you. You, in turn, should accept your spouse as they are.

Well disobedient is a word to use with your dog not your wife. If you must get all spiritual and say the Bible says then realise it says this too... husbands love your wives as Christ loved the church...namely He died for it...Treat her like a queen and she will honour you like a king. It's her wanting to please you that you need to affect not following silly little rules - you need a revolution in your marriage not a quick fix. Become a pro-active husband and win her respect then everything else will fall into line...

Ok, your taking that wives submitting to their husbands out of the Bible and your taking it WAY out of context. A marriage is a partnership, and it's NOT always women who are to blame for divorce, actually it's more because of men, especially men who only think of themselves or think of themselves before their wives. Instead of putting thier wife and her feelings and needs before his own.

Also another reason that the divorce rate is so high is that our society says that if problems come up, just divorce instead of trying to work them out.

JAMES M

I don't think so Jason. This isn't Colonial times here, woman ARE there own person. They have lives and contribute to society in so many ways. I think the high divorce rate is, in some degree, due to all of us....men and woman having soooo many choices and distractions to deal with. In most cases these days it takes 2 paychecks to support a family. A woman not only has a career to juggle but a husband etc. For me...I'd take what we got any day of the week. I just love the emancipated woman of the now .

I think you'll be among the divorce statistics.

And there's different ideas of divorce causes; the main ones cited are fighting about money and infidelity (mostly men's).

San Jorge Lover

oh..........another person out there trying to get people pissed off by asking racist questions. I am sure you are not even married and you are sitting alone in your room typing away on your computer and hope Mommy and Daddy do not come into your room and find you up past your bedtime.....

kazzadanni

NO WAY !! I'm sorry to burst your bubble jason but l think it is men just like you that definately cause a rise in the divorce rate !! So what do you think about that !!! Am I right or what ????

ike mie

Which country are you from?Time has change.You're right that wife have to submit and obey,but husbands are all at fault when the marriage doesn't work out.Husband today do not know that the way to their wife's heart is to know how to do the house chores.

jtgot1

Mate your game putting up that question!!! LMFAO - Hahaha

The reason is because men are not sole providers anymore. Now a days women make just as much money and support the hosue hold just as much as the men do if not more. So what respect does a women need to give someone she is equal to? Equal by the right that she has to work, care for the children, cook the food, pay the bills, shop, take kids to school and home etc. Sounds like superwoman to me.
In my home my husband works a full time job and so do I.
I clean, cook, work and he does the exact same thing. Why should I revere him for doing what I do?
I look up to him and respect his opinions, how hard he works and etc. But he respects me also. Why should I be submissive?

I dint think you are right here, because the men would be more respected in a relationship if they brought something extra. But they dint. That's the fact. Men need to know how to raise children, clean, cook work etc. Because I feel that if If women are contributing as much as men are, then it is not about being the head of the house anymore. Cause they both share the responsibility's.
So in conclusion, if men want to be the dominating figure in the home then they need to make sure that they do their manly duty and support the home, buy a house, have a car, provide all of the essentials in the marriage, then they would have a reason to be head of the home, like back in the day. But that will never happin. Cause men WANT women to share the finantial burdons as well as the monitary ones. So it was actually the men who made it this way, lol. Kinda funny hua.

You need to stay in your country for one thing, and the other is that if men weren't so use to having females spoil them to the point that they feel like they can cheat easily and get away with it, then the divorce wouldn't be so high.

Becky F

you know it is not all the women who are wrong.
What about the men who think they can not give there wifes the proper attention and i do not mean s e x either. When a female feels alone that ruins relations. Please look at divorces on a case by case basis

chocolatecupcake

Marriage is 50/50. It does not solely rely on one spouse or the other. Both have to bring all that they can (as individuals) into the marriage in order to make it work. You can't blame it solely on women. >=( Shame on you!

fieryschmoo

Listen kid, if you can't run with the Big Dogs, stay on the porch.

Jen Armero

No the high divorce rate is from men who cant keep it in their pants, and cheat.

Nicki

No, overbearing husbands is the reason for the higher divorce rate. She isn't your slave , your not her dictator, I'd hate to be married to you.

Deirdre O

You have the attitude of a person living in the dark ages. I think that any woman in her right mind would run the other way if she saw you coming. By the way do you have a chastity belt for your wife as well?

luv3dbb

ROFLOL!!!! You are SOOOOOOO getting flamed for his one buddy!!!

lovelylady

it's like this, a woman would be way more willing to submit if that man is a good head, not dictator. In order to lead, you must me led!!!

stephanie f

disobedient wives- 5 %
ignorant husbands- 45 %
everything else- 50%

Sulkahlee

You silly boy. A true marriage is between equals and is a partnership of friends. At least ideally. Emphasis on PARTNERSHIP! And also ideally they would have the same goals. So if that holds, what difference does it make who "leads."
