Men » Men being the head of women
Wives, be in subjection to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as also Christ is the head of the church; and is himself the saviour of the body.

But I desire you to take notice that the head of every man is Christ; but the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man praying or prophesying, holding [a veil] over his head, dishonoureth his head; read more.
but every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled, dishonoureth her head; for it is one and the same thing, as if she were shaven. For if the woman be not veiled, let her hair be clipped: but if it would be scandalous for a woman to appear clipped or shaved, let her be veiled. For a man indeed ought not to veil his head, being the image and the glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man. For the man is not from the woman, but the woman from the man. Also the man was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man. Therefore ought the woman to retain upon her head [this badge of authority], because of the angels [of the churches]. Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man in the Lord. For as the woman was taken out of the man, so also is the man by the woman: but all things are of God. Judge among yourselves, is it decent for a woman to be praying to God without a covering? Does not even nature itself teach you, that if a man wear long flowing hair it is a dishonour to him? But if a woman let her hair flow, it is an ornament to her; for the hair was given her for a covering, But if any man mean to be contentious about it, we have no such custom, nor the churches of God.
