KEEPING THE GENDER BALANCE IN RELATIONSHIP

 KEEPING THE GENDER BALANCE IN RELATIONSHIP
While Ladies are over rated amongst the whites, Men are over rated amongst the blacks.
Ladies are over rated amongst the white in that it is cool if a lady slaps her husband and send him packing, but it's not cool if a man yells (as simple as that is) at his wife.

Men are over rated amongst blacks in that it is ok for a man to abuse his wife, engage in extramarital affair(s) but it is so uncool for a black woman to slap her husband. Did I just say slap! She wouldnt wanna try that, except if she is in such a hurry to re-unite with her grandfather.
This unhumane part of some african men has sparked up the greatest movement amongst african women which is "THE GENDER EQUALITY" I love to support women but then God didnt create the man and the woman for gender equity.
Ok if this isnt the purpose of the gender variation, how do we tackle this challenge the african women are facing and that of the white men? The bible talks about the role of each gender in a relationship.
1Peter 3:1 "Wives, likewise be submissive to your own husband..."
1Peter 3:7 "Husbands, likewise dwell with them with understanding, giving honour to the wife..."
These two bibles verses combined with a full dosage of Colossians 3:18 & 19
("Wives submit to your own husbands as is fitting in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives and do not be bitter towards them") is all we need to overcome the gender challenge.
Note two glaring elements in these bibles verses "LOVE AND HUMILITY". A husband who poseses these two attributes will not abuse or (intentinally) do anything to hurt or harm his wife, and vice versa. If a man loves a woman right she will nerver think of "GENDER EQUALITY"
But then our major problem (especially the youth) is, we dont wanna do it God's way. We prefer the books, (I'm not saying it's wrong to read the books) the "7 keys to marrital bliss" etc we dont even wanna picture God in this part of our lives...
WHEN WILL WE START DOING IT THE GOD'S WAY?
