It probably starts that I too "physical resemble a domineering mother"!! But also, I am capable and I can be independent. I choose to defer to my husband and not challenge what we view as the "natural order" of a marriage. My mom challenged EVERYTHING and it was (and is) a terrible environment.

I'm not a mindless drone, but our relationship works so much better if I let him take the lead... And isn't submitting to his lead "submission"? I dunno, it's all semantics, but it's such a loaded word these days.

I spent more than two decades in churches trying to live out what was called a submissive wife, but it really wasn't. I believe I had tendencies all along that my husband points them out to me lately, but what I was taught by first a domineering mother (I love that term; wonder why it never occurred to me) who taught me how to use and control men, then by what I saw of the relationships in the church that were called submission. I defer to my husband's leadership within the past couple of years and we are in a much better place, but I hesitate to use the 's' word around people; some don't like it, especially some of the church ladies. <br />Thanks for writing this. I'll have to stop in more often.Jacquiehttp://barefootinaclearing.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
