In his words:
"Feminism in marriage is rubbish. Yes I said it and I'm going to say it again. Feminism in marriage is not God's word. You can be doing your feminism in the office, because yes, if you are a woman and you work like a man, you should be paid like a man.
"But in marriage, there is only one head. And you had the first right of choice. So if you choose the man then you submit to him."
She advised women to choose well before going into marriage.
Many react
@st.vics said:
"Any lady looking for equality in marriage will definitely leave the marriage. God has made man the head over a woman in marriage. A man loving his wife and a woman submitting to her husband is a mandate from God. And it unconditional."
