It ain't just in the preaching, men just don't like masculine women.

Not a member of that club, still cann't deal with masculine women, or
effeminate men.

I would have to refer back to God not being the author of confusion and
Christ is the head of the man, the man is the head of the woman. So,
IMHO, IF a woman is called by God to preach
1) there won't be strife(wouldn't make for much of a ministry)
2) she won't try to rule the home
3) she will be submissive(not a door mat)
and lest I'm called a chauvenist(sp?) pig
IF a man is called by God to preach
1) there won't be strife(wouldn't make for much of a ministry)
2) he will rule the home(with love not an iron fist)
3) he won't wipe his feet on his wife

Can a man be called to and go out to preach with a lost wife? If so,
why not a woman with a lost husband?
> It also appears that Jesus had a high regard to women...He (JESUS) does not treat women like they are second best,
He did after all make women(and he don't make junk) to be a help(as in
completed the package) to man.
