Submissive Women?

Do you think a woman should be submissive to her husband?  The bible says for women to be submissive to their husbands.  Do you agree with this? Or do you think that women that are submissive are weak and a failure?

I used to think that being submissive meant giving up your opinion and authority but now I realize you gain more when you show submission to your husband, well if you have a good husband.  A good husband knows that a woman that submits to him, she is not doing it so that he can do whatever he pleases; but instead she is showing him that she trusts him to do the right thing for their family.  In effect, men tend to become more considerate to their wives' opinions and feelings and really do make the right decisions.  Or at least this is what has happen in my marriage since I stop trying to take my husbands role as the head of the house, and instead took the role as the heart of the house. Things have been so great since we both realize that at the end of the day, God made him a man and he made me a woman and their are certain roles God wants us to follow so that we can all live in peace and harmony with our love ones......the bible really does transform people.  That is why I rather put my faith in a holy book than in societies stigmas.  The bible is a how to book that shows you how to find understanding, love, peace, harmony, and hope in a world that makes you think that power is everything. In a world that makes you thing that when you submit to something, is  a sign of weakness and failure....I really think that that is why there is so many divorce people.  People put their faith in the wrong ideals and in return they destroy the things that they love the most.....family.
