Name one!

women need to be wives and mothers and homeschool teachers to be happy and fulfill their God given role, the are few exceptions
I suggest you check out Psalm 31:10-22. The 'woman of worth' isn't just a 'wife', 'mother' and a 'homeschool teacher.".

She's a business woman.

There is nothing in the Bible that says a woman must stay barefoot and pregnant and at home, which is what your words above equate to.

Now it’s the men who stay barefoot at home and obey their wives…

Totally contrary to biblical teaching.

But hey… whatever…

God will end all this soon…

“He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.” (Revelation 22:20)

Where in the Bible does it say that women should stay barefoot at home and obey their husbands?

There is nothing wrong with a man that stays home and takes care of the children. I have a friend in Upstate, NY who does that very thing. His wife makes more than he would and all his salary would go towards would be child care. So they agreed that she would work and he would stay home with the kids.

As long as the husband and wife decide together to do that and no one is forced, then that is their choice. It is their marriage after all.

Also, in case you didn't know men and women wore the same clothes when Jesus walked the earth.

There is nothing immodest about a woman wearing pants. I also would suggest that if you lack self control and lust after a woman in pants, that you get a handle on that. You are still responsible for your own self control.

Women should not have authority over men either, I.e judges or in government

It's because you have never read Judges 4:4!!!!

Matt 23:9
Call no man Father?

Is this an absolute requirement?
Or is Our Savior condemning pride and spiritual pride of the Pharisees?

God calls men father!

I believe Jesus meant to not call any father "spiritual father" on earth for one is your father which is in heaven.

To God Be The Glory

You mean proverbs and it’s his wife the virtuous woman

Wow, so you want to have women oppressed again! Good luck with that!!

not oppressed by happy
Wife and mothers are happy!

Working women are miserable!

Bible! Ok

Genesis 3:16
Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thyconception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children; and thy desire shallbe to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee.
