Woman 'property' in the same manner that men are a 'wallet'.By this definition both the husband and wife are property to each other, and children 'property' to their parents.
Both men and women have their roles but are to be treated with proper respect, love and kindness etc. I don't think women are property in the same sense that my laptop is my property.... my point is that men aren't just a 'wallet' (they also need love) and women aren't just 'property'. It is expected that both men and women fulfil their roles, money is not the only thing men provide, and lawful obedience is not the only thing women provide. I am not sure what the point of your thread is.
Yes being lonely is very painful, that's why there is that meme "men only want one thing and it's disgusting beautiful". Unfortunately it's very hard to find the right person in this modern age, many older Catholics haven't found that person and have either already lost the hope of finding a good companion or are losing that hope. And the more one desires creatures, the more painful it is. Even though we are supposed to rest in God, at the same time it is natural to desire someone to be with as per your quote.
"It is better to sit in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman, and in a common house.
[Proverbs 21:9]
I have heard it said, as bad as being alone is, it is much worse to be with someone and still feel alone.
I think some people are seeing the term 'property' and conflating it with 'object'.
1. a material thing that can be seen and touched.
2. a person or thing to which a specified action or feeling is directed.
In these cases they are either brainwashed by feminism or go in the opposite extremely by taking 'property' to mean the first definition of 'object' provided here.
By definition a women or child or husband is indeed an object, because they have a material body that can be seen or touched. The problem is when people leave out consideration. Consideration that people aren't only flesh but also souls. I.e not considering the thoughts and feelings of the other person.
In the case of a husband, it's usually being a tyrant and only treating the wife as a material object while ignoring her heart. (Only seeking pleasure or service to the house)
In the case of a wife, it's usually being unlawful in disobedience to her husband and treating him as a material object that only 'provides' (as a wallet or a tool). Not providing the marriage debt and not considering his heart.
Likewise poorly treating children (i.e abuse or overworking them) without properly raising them into fine adults, by not considering their temperament or the pressure they may feel from expections (especially if they have siblings they are compared to).
So it seems to me people take the extreme definition here of 'property' as 'object' without considering if said property will be properly taking care of. I for one certainly treat my inanimate 'objects' with proper care. I would hope most people also maintain their possessions properly, and if done so for non-living things then how much so for living ones?
