God created man in His image and likeness. “Male and female He created them”.  When God said that women would be under the dominion of man, it was a prophecy that the stronger male would impose his will on the woman. The paradox would be that she would desire the male even though he dominated her. This is the “war between the sexes”
But, before the fall, they were equal.  If it were in the natural order for the male to be dominant it would not have resulted in a punishment of sorts.
Why does Paul say that God is the head of the man, while women have to settle for a mere human male as her head? Women have been punished down through the ages for the sin of Eve, while men can stand strong and proud with uncovered heads.  It is this custom that is still followed in the Middle East where women don’t have any rights. Many men consider that they are the human race while women are the Ladies Auxiliary.
My nephew once said that if women stayed home and took care of the house and children, there would be no wars.  I reminded him of the Middle East where women have no rights and men rule completely.  They are the most warlike people on the face of the earth.
I’ve been groped in the subways and treated with condescension by men whose brain power was inferior to mine.  No, I don’t think men are naturally superior. In fact, women are the improved version.
Thanks for letting me have my say and blow off some steam.

I don’t read anywhere in the Bible, the Catechism, nor in said article where women are subordinate to men.

Please clarify.

Read St. Paul in the Bible.

Wives are to be subordinate to God and to their husbands, who in turn love them, not to all men in general. This is not oppression. Women being subordinate to all men is not what St. Paul meant, I don’t think.

I see no reason for women to be subordinate to their husbands other than to feed their ego.  If both are made in the image of God, they are equal to each other. Paul was speaking in the mindset of his time and place. In the Middle East, women were, and still are, thought of as being less than men and/or being punished for the sin of Eve.

It is suppose to be that the defense was tremendous, but there is the intangible “phenomenon Tebow”. I guess that deserves discussion about what the Broncos record would have Kyle Orton continued to play. It looked like a losing team with Orton. The D is great, but Tebow say what someone should get some credit for the 7-1. QB is usually judged by victory and defeat plain and simple. The numbers may not be there but the most important. Now this could be the Trent Dilfer argument again, but these reimbursements fourth quarter just make the discussion more interesting.
