something you agree on, fine

please dont take this the wrong way, but does that not imply that he holds the power?
thereby making him an ipso facto leader?

Yes, he's the leader of our household. That does NOT mean I don't have any say in things, or that I"m second class. I have a huge say in our decisions. We discuss things quite a bit, and he often is swayed by my input and changes his mind about the decision. Also he often chooses my preference over his, because he is aware of the charge for husbands to love their wives sacrificially.

Y'know, I think it boils down to this: is God, the One who set up this system, loving and good and all-knowing, and does He honor and love men and women equally and care equally for their welfare? I think the answer is a resounding "yes".
