Who?

This thread is on age gaps.  I think we have determined that age gaps were acceptable by the Church

You've got it backwards, as normal.  The Church sets the minimum ages for marriage.  All else is up to the parties involved.

The whole idea that men/women should be similar in age is modernist.  And it's not historical, nor economical.

I am not sure what you mean by I got it backwards.  I said something about age gaps and you said something about similar ages.

This will be my last post on this thread.  Prayers for all.

So each man is an island, so there is no need for bosses, spiritual leaders, and political leaders for men?  OK I got it. 

I am getting the feeling that there is a big disconnect from what my words say and what the men think I say.  I obey who I need to obey, you no longer have to act like my fathers ( I think I have like 3 here)

Can someone post for me my exact quote that said women don't have to obey men, I believe I have never said that.  I will show respect to men, but again not in the anonymous forum where your gender is not even stated.  Context matters.

This thread is on age gaps.  I think we have determined that age gaps were acceptable by the Church, that women as young as 13 were ready for marriage (in a time gone by) that legally now that age is 18 in many countries.

7 years is the ideal age gap.

The Victorian's had a sliding scale of half your age plus 7 years.

The only way to change any of the current thinking is for parents to teach their daughters better.

Did I miss anything?

Sorry I botched the anonymous box twice And gave up haha to say Christ is the head of man of course implies His Body. His church.

1st Timothy 2
11A woman ^a should learn in quietness and full submission. 12I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; ^b she must be quiet. 13For Adam was formed first, then Eve. 14And Adam was not the one deceived; it was the woman who was deceived and became a sinner. 15But women ^c will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.

trying to explain this to western women is impossible. “There will come a time when men will not endure sound doctrine” well….. welcome to it. 🤷‍♂️ They are far too “ educated” and self sufficient. Of course the opposite of that is not good either. There is no balance any more everything’s been pushed to the extremes. But here we sit with birth rates plummeted, divorce rates sky rocketed, movements like mgtow happening. Everything is fine and we should just keep doing what we’re doing! 😵‍💫
The recent controversy between Joe heshmier and Timothy Gordon is one worth listening to. I believe one of the female respondent used the word phlegmatic. So if they are not analyzing us by the position of the stars on a given day like via whoreiscopes they are judging us by the amount of bile or phlegm we produce hahah you can’t win! They don’t say simply this man loves God and I can trust him to make decisions and have the final word. God didn’t say if he is this type do this if he is this type do that. He simply said submit to the man as the man submits to me! Women will not be judged for the outcomes of the decisions made they will be judged by how well they followed His instructions. Gods instructions. But back to the subject, I’m not sure older women can be instructed like this. Younger women……. Maybe. It would be considered misogynistic to say you have to train your wife but if the parents are not doing it……. What does that mean for the spouse?

Great post.

The problem is mainly that we live in a society that lets women get away with this nonsense.

Never was like this in Catholic societies.

I was recently at the dentist and was presently surprised to see a white man working as a dentist (the only white dentist there ). This guy was mid to late 20s and was very good looking, probably a 8/10 maybe even 9/10 if I'm being generous.

Anyway when I went in to my appointment he was taking with the receptionist women. After my appointment as I was checking out she mentioned she didn't even realise I went in! Wow this middle aged (30s/40s) married women was enjoying herself a little too much talking to a man not her husband, i did notice how she looked and smiled at him, it was too friendly in my opinion, certainly not becoming of a married women. 

You would think a older married lady would have better control over herself at the very least out of respect for her husband. This is exactly the sort of situation that eventually leads to adultery (not saying that will happen in her case or she was having thoughts of adultery) I'm just pointing out women to not magically mature as they age. Also if you are handsome your age does not matter. It's usually older women and younger men who are against age gaps because they can't compete.
