Men » Men being the head of women
You married women must continue to live in subordination to your husbands, as you do to the Lord, for a husband is the head of his wife, just as Christ is the Head of the church, His body, and Saviour of it.
I prize and praise you for always remembering me and for firmly standing by the teachings as I passed them on to you. But I want you to realize the fact that Christ is the Head of every man, that the husband is the head of the wife, and that God is the Head of Christ. Any man who prays or preaches with anything on his head dishonors his head, read more.
and any woman who prays or prophesies bareheaded dishonors her head, for it is one and the same thing with having her head shaved. For if a woman will not wear a veil, let her have her hair cut off too. Now if it is a dishonor for a woman to have her hair cut off, or her head shaved, let her wear a veil. For a man ought not to wear anything on his head, because he is the image and reflected glory of God, but woman is man's reflected glory. For man did not originate from woman, but woman did from man, and man was not created for woman's sake, but woman was for man's sake. This is why woman ought to wear upon her head a symbol of man's authority, especially out of respect to the angels. But from the Lord's point of view woman is not independent of man nor man of woman. For just as woman originated from man, so man is born of woman, and both, with everything else, originated from God. You must judge for yourselves in this matter. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with nothing on her head? Does not nature itself teach you that it is degrading for a man to wear long hair, but that it is a woman's glory to do so? For her hair is given her for a covering. But if anyone is inclined to be contentious about it, I for my part prescribe no other practice than this, and neither do the churches of God.

So I want the men everywhere to offer prayer, lifting to heaven holy hands which are kept unstained by anger and dissensions. I want the women, on their part, to dress becomingly, that is, modestly and sensibly, not adorning themselves with braided hair and gold or pearls or expensive dresses, but with good deeds; for this is appropriate for women who profess to be pious. read more.
