Point taken.Certainly in the area of elevating women above that status of being seen as mere property.
Paul taught us to LOVE our wives. A revolutionary thought at the time.

So, what exactly was the Apostle teaching?
Speculation: in Biblical Greek there were several words for different types of love: Storge, the love for family members; Phileo, the love between friends; Eros, sexual love; Agape, divine love. Perhaps Paul would say that true love for a spouse would entail all of these!
But see also Genesis 29: 18 - 20.
