A man shared a video explaining that a *submissive wife* is the true head of the family, urging women to find a loving partner and embrace their feminine energy. However, one comment responded, “Define submissive? Slavery,” equating submission with oppression—an interpretation far from what the man intended. Submission, in this context, refers to mutual respect, trust, and cooperation in a relationship, not servitude.
The comment reflects a common misconception that submission equals loss of individuality or freedom. However, healthy submission is about understanding roles and complementing each other within a partnership. Conversations around these terms must be approached thoughtfully, as equating submission with slavery can mislead and hinder constructive dialogue about harmonious relationships.
