I am not a church goer, that being said, I do pray to my God. My God is no doubt the same God you worship to through Jesus Christ. 
I have visited many churches, preachers in the pull pits, and for myself I never found or learned of a church that gave equal rights to a man as to a woman.
My wife is well spoken, and at anytime she sees fit can speak her opinion freely. When she feels strongly about her position, she will take a stance and fight her point if need be. When she feels strongly about a point, and needs me to support her, I often listen to what she has to say. I not only respect her position, but also respect her wisdom.
But "sometimes" she doesn't listen to me, and with that, she lost a battle Friday. I am a head strong, get it done, Alpha male. When the power went out for 17 days, I took charge provided heat and food and lead the family. When a SO-N-SO charged through my woods in a jeep during hunting season, she was my rock. God blessed that man, and I don't think he even knows it.
My wife is not just a person in my life, she is also a part of me. Just because she lost a battle Friday doesn't mean I am ready to carve out a place on my headboard, rather than I had a point and she sees value to what I was teaching the kids.
We don't fight, but spend more time listening and ask each other questions. That sometimes falls short, and in six years of marriage, I know we have had four/4 fights. And out of those four fights, the making up was better than the fight.
I would never speak on her behalf unless I was asked to.
Hey, I don't know you well enough to say either way, but this is my opinion.

I lost 2.8 pounds this week for a total of 11.4 pounds!! YAY!! I am thinking I am either in second or first place. My mom is in third place right now. She has lost 7.4 pounds. There are 10 people in our challenge class. The class as a whole has lost 41.6 pounds! That means my 11 pounds, Pat's 10-12 pounds (she is a contenter for first place with me right now), and my mom's 7 pounds the three of us have lost nearly 30 of the 41 pounds so that means the other 7 have only lost about 12-14 pounds between them. The first place winner will receive $125.
I was sooo happy to see sunshine today!
