As a christian wife what does submission mean to you?

Respect a respectful opinion.

In righteousness.

If he were to ask you to do something that goes against Scripture, you would not be expected to be disobedient to the Lord in favor of your husband. Otherwise, your husband would have become an idol - above God.

Submit to your husband means that when you have a discussion and you disagree with him, you explain your thoughts and reason with him as best that you can, then you let him do it his way.

The verse that you posted, does not stand alone. The rest of the passage is connected to it.

The husband is to guide the wife. He is to give himself for her. To love her as he loves himself.

Notice the phrase "as the church is subject to Christ"?

This passage speaks of a marriage where both people know the Lord. If the husband does not know the Lord, obviously, the relationship is going to be a bit different. But as long as the wife is in prayer, and strong enough to say no to unrighteousness, her submission to her husband may be the very thing that brings the husband into submission to the Lord.

Eph 5:23-29

For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body. Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.

So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself.

For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church.

I hope this helps.

It means that God gave my husband the privilege and authority of being the physical and spiritual head of the household. I would not dare rob him of this or interfere in any way with the keeping of his duty before God!

1Ti 2:12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

1Ti 2:13 For Adam was first formed, then Eve.

1Ti 2:14 And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

1Ti 2:15 Notwithstanding she shall be saved in childbearing, if they continue in faith and charity and holiness with sobriety.

The Bible also tells husband to love their wives as Christ loved the church and as their own bodies. If they did, wives would know that their husbands are only doing what is best for them and would submit happily. That is how the family is set up to work.

Jewish couples tend toward the opposite.

Sorry, I'm not a Christian wife.

It means they follow a misogynistic religion and must be inwardly masochistic.

A spicier sex life.

The man runs the household. He has the final word.

it means give them anus
