Feminists

Yeah, it's gross, but it's typical fundie thinking. The man is supposed to be in charge and make all the "important" decisions (financial and otherwise), and she's supposed to be obedient. The traditional expectation is that she stays home and he is the breadwinner, but that's getting harder and harder to pull off these days. In that case, even if she has a job, he gets to decide how all the money is spent.

It's complete b.s., but women like the ones in that Bible study class have been taught all their lives that this is how a marriage should work. It makes my skin crawl to think about it.

What's really ironic is that some of the same passages in the Bible about women being subservient have also been used to justify not allowing women to be ministers. Rev Sarah herself would be considered an abomination by some fundies!
