Men » Men being the head of women
He said to the woman: I will greatly increase your pains in childbirth; with pain you will give birth to children. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.
Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the congregation, he being the savior of the body.
Now I praise you, brothers, because you remember me in all things, and carefully follow the teachings (precepts) (doctrine) just as I delivered them to you. I would have you know, that the head (authority) of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies having his head covered dishonors his head. read more.
But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head. She is the same as if she had her head shaved. For if the woman were not covered, let her also be shaved. But if it is a shame for a woman to have her head shaved, let her be covered. For a man should not cover his head, for he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of the man. For the man is not from the woman; but the woman is from the man. Neither was man created for woman but woman for man. That is why the woman should have a sign of authority on her head because of the angels. However in the Lord, both men and women exist together. Not one without the other. For as woman is from man, even so is man also from woman. But all things are from God! Judge in yourselves. Is it proper that women pray to God uncovered? Does not even nature itself teach you, that, if men have long hair, it is a shame? But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her for her hair is given her for a covering. If anyone is contentious about this we have no other practice, neither do the congregations of God.

Let a woman learn in silence with all subjection. I do not permit a woman to teach or have dominion over a man, but to remain quiet. Adam was first formed and then Eve. read more.
