What happened to the domesticated wife? The agents of satan teach the wife to domesticate the husband through emotional and psychological manipulation perverting the natural order. Women are no longer subject to their husbands. No, the man is subject to the wife. The woman has the government backing as well. The woman knows this and can use this to her advantage. In this perverse backwards order, the woman ends up resenting the man for not obeying her commands or because he grudgingly does so. The man is no longer head of the family. The entire family suffers and the spouses may separate destroying the family unit.

How can the order be repaired when the wife refuses to assume her role? When confronted she will give excuses about how the man doesn't fulfill his obligations. That he doesn't make enough money. That he doesn't help around the house. That he only makes messes. That she is a woman and so she suffers more. That she has to go through the pains of birthing children. That the man has it much easier and so the man must become subservient to her will perverting the natural order with bad decisions one after the other. Problem and after problem.

The husband should "man up", right? The husband should say NO to his wife's countless demands and childish outbursts, but the wife won't have it. She refuses and threatens to break up the family with separation if that happens. So the husband can only keep the peace while slowly dying inside resenting his wife's unwillingness to be subject to him?

It reminds me how the Vatican is corrupt with including women in roles of men instead of teaching truth.  Children are being brought up by strangers with satanic ideas.  Children are running wild in the streets while the Vatican condones the behavior with women reading and running the Novus Ordo when they should be tending to their families including children and aging parents. 

No, so called traditional Catholic women.

Yeah, I have to agree that this problem is much closer to home than just non Catholic women.

Secular women, right?

Oh sure, that's what he means. Is this WWCS, or just another soy boy sobbing in his beer because he's still an Incel and lashes out at all women.

Yeah, this modern marxist perverted world is the most backwards in history. Is there any other time in history where the most basic things in life were more backwards? I dont think so.

What comes to mind is that I need to work on myself in certain areas.

Good for you, and a good point for all of us.

#1.  Domesticated wives are around...  You just have to know where to look for them! 

#2.  Yes, men should "man up". 

"Right is right since God is God
And right the day must win.
To doubt would be disloyalty,
To falter would be sin."

I have seen women destroy marriages and also men. 

Husbands and Fathers should stand up for themselves and their children even if the wife and mother desides that she doesn't agree with him and causes trouble. The fault will then be on his wife's but he will have a clear conscience.  He is the head and leader of the family.  This is his duty. 

I have known many traditional women who have husbands who are afraid to assert themselves or take the lead.  The women may seem like they want to lead but are forced to "take charge" in some aspects because their husbands refuse to do so.  (The father refuses to discipline the children, teach them anything about the Faith etc.)

Not everything is what it seems. In a perfect world, yes we can say you just have to know where to look for them. Yes, we know where to look for them, but what's done is done (marriage) amd there is no turning back. Must go forward, so looking for solutions.

The issue isn't about taking the lead, but when a woman will not follow or trust. You can't force a woman to submit. Especially in this mordern age with "equal right". 

Did it ever occur to anyone that perhaps Our Lord wants to rebuild His monasteries by not providing suitable careers or wives?

I get the impression from what you wrote that you are married but your wife doesn't respect you or follow your wishes.  Is that correct?  Are you both traditional Catholics?

If this is true...  I am sorry...  I have known several families where when the father became a traditional Catholic, the wife took that as a cue to divorce him.  One family had a dozen children first and they were caught amidst a terrible divorce... 

That being said, I think the father was still right to become a traditional Catholic despite the results and several of his children remained loyal to him even though others took the mother's side.  

Prayers for you...
