Yeah, I know. It's all girl power until it's time to take out the trash. Evidently having a set of fallopian tubes makes one weak on trash day.

Why are men the boss? BECAUSE WE FREAKING SAID SO!!!! OK!? Everyone knows a womans brain is ten times smaller than a mans....
ANYWAY, She says he is never wrong because she is as lobotomised as he... I mean... Brainwashed... No! Wait, I mean.. a ji... NO! Wait.... I mean, she has the exact same set of values? So of course he is right, because she believe's this to be so..... It has nothing to do with his pecker either... They set up in the JW faith a heirarchy..... And Adam was responsible for Eve.... Hence 'head of the household' so to speak.... It doesn't mean they can say "Wife!! Cover yourself in whipped cream and satisfy me!" or "Wife act like a dog..." It is sensible supervision so to speak...... If the man asks something which is not right the woman of course can say no...
god
jesus
man
woman
parents
children
They will tell you all have a certain role and responsability.... Fair enough, I guess only those who want more than equal rights get all whiney about this.... Are you a JW? No? So why care about their ways? You do not have to submit to these ways do you?.... Everyone lived happily ever after...... Oh one thing I am not sure if you knew... This should help you... lol, women cannot teach nor introduce talks or do talks in a kingdom hall... That's a -mans- job..... lol.

why are men the boss
Well according to the other thread, we lie better.
But as women just let us think we are the boss...
Maybe they lie better, and just let us think we do...
....Wonder what else I think I am doing?

The problem with that 17th is that it is the men (religious leaders, politicians, etc) that decide what can be questioned and they have a mirriad of answers as to why certain issues cannot be questioned (eg because we (the men) interpret the scriptures to say this, so women should accept it because we decided that is what G-d meant).
I was astonished recently to read that some women in the USA & UK are paying to have lessons in how to be a subserviant wife  I accept women's lib has gone too far but please let's not go down that road again. One awful example was a British woman, who was the main breadwinner, had to cut up her bank cards and ask permission from her husband to spend money (her own money). In my view this shows that some women can see womens lib has gone too far and are trying to redress the balance but in the wrong way - perhaps women are feeling a bit lost with all this liberation they have gained for themselves?

“Do not desire women, those she-devils on whose chests grow two lumps of flesh, who continually change their mind, who entice men, and then make a sport of them as of slaves.”
- Uttaradhyayana (a Jain text).

In the JW faith they stick to the rules of the bible being of higher importance than that of man..... So, no.... If the male does something which is wrong the female can question it.... or refuse or whatever it is!!!
Blessings of the madgod.

and having a pair of testicles stops men from asking directions when they are lost or reading instruction manuals.

Instruction manuals are for women anyway, written in a highly technical fashion, so it would appear that we men are the intellectual geniuses that we say we are when we build that coffee table on our own.  Of course, we still don't know where that damn extra screw goes.

We don't ask directions because we know all the other men are as clueless as us. You girls think there must be another man who knows more than us, which we, of course, can in nowise allow!
I'm the designated assembler in our family. I get to put together all the Christmas stuff and everything else that comes disassembled. I always read the directions, but I'll admit that I don't like asking directions.

Yeah right, next you'll be telling me you have put those shelves up, fixed the leaky tap and learned to put the loo seat down.
I am saying no more about getting lost, I get great pleasure from watching chaps drive past the shop 6 or 7 times, looking right and left, with a look of sheer frustration on their faces.
