Question

The book of Proverb by King Solomon


31:10 A truly good wife is the most precious treasure a man can find!
31:11 Her husband depends on her, and she never lets him down.
31:12 She is good to him every day of her life,
31:13 and with her own hands she gladly makes clothes.
31:14 She is like a sailing ship that brings food from across the sea.
31:15 She gets up before daylight to prepare food for her family and for her servants.
31:16 She knows how to buy land and how to plant a vineyard,
31:17 and she always works hard.
31:18 She knows when to buy or sell, and she stays busy until late at night.
31:19 She spins her own cloth,
31:20 and she helps the poor and the needy.
31:21 Her family has warm clothing, and so she doesn't worry when it snows.
31:22 She does her own sewing, and everything she wears is beautiful.
31:23 Her husband is a well-known and respected leader in the city.
31:24 She makes clothes to sell to the shop owners.
31:25 She is strong and graceful, as well as cheerful about the future.
31:26 Her words are sensible, and her advice is thoughtful.
31:27 She takes good care of her family and is never lazy.
31:28 Her children praise her, and with great pride her husband says,
31:29 "There are many good women, but you are the best!"
31:30 Charm can be deceiving, and beauty fades away, but a woman who honors the Lord deserves to be praised.
31:31 Show her respect -- praise her in public for what she has done.

I can only answer from the Buddhist perspective. In the Siglovada Sutta (Digha Nikaya 31) the Buddha said there is a reciprocal relationship between a husband and a wife:

30. "In five ways should a wife...be respected by a husband: by honoring, not disrespecting, being faithful, sharing authority, and by giving gifts.
"And, the wife so respected reciprocates with compassion in five ways: by being well-organized, being kindly disposed to the in-laws and household workers, being faithful, looking after the household goods, and being skillful and diligent in all duties." (from http://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/dn/dn.31.0.ksw0.html#fn-7 )

Combine this with the responses from others and you will have the comparative information you are seeking.

you're making it appear as if Malaysia is making an attempt to purge itself of Hinduism while no longer something would be extra from the reality. There are almost 2000 Hindu temples in Malaysia with in basic terms a small share plagued by the governments movements. i'm no longer asserting that the governments place is the spectacular one in determining which temples are appropriate and that are no longer, yet you have made no attempt what so ever to state what the governments place is. rather you're extra drawn to appealing Muslim bashing. that is a complicated subject, which fits decrease back numerous years, which you have decreased to a speaking element.

very nice.  someone who shares in & respects your faith.  if she is not as strong in faith, she will be built up.  if you are waning, she will strengthen you, as will your children as will your community.

of course before spirituality comes into play, we must question compatibility.  this means genetic, social and personality.  some of this is universal to all people and some is more per individual.  

there is always a life of Celibacy, too, you know.  this is the most spiritual and the most complete.

Sorry Muslim fathers beat their mothers, and they have to wear turbans all day. As long as the woman can make me a sandwich and stays in the kitchen, life will be great.
