wife is looked at as a free maid, janitor, secretary etc. Then to make matters worse people speak to her disrespectfully. Maybe some get hard over it and get over controlling etc possibly. I don't like that one man show band. It never works. People
just end up on pews bound and not knowing how to move in the Gifts of the Spirit or
any of the Works. Its a crying shame.
