Men » Men being the head of women
Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord: for the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and the saviour of that body.
Now I commend you, brethren, that ye remember me in all things, and keep the ordinances, as I delivered them to you. But I would have you know that Christ is the head of every man; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. Every man praying or prophesying, having a veil on his head, dishonoureth Him who is his head. read more.
But every woman praying or prophesying with her head unveiled dishonoureth man her head; for it is even all one as if she were shaved. For if a woman be not covered, she may as well be shorn: but if it be shameful to a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered. For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, he being the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man. For the man was not of the woman; but the woman was taken out of the man: nor was the man created for the sake of the woman, but the woman for the man. For this reason ought the woman to have power on her head, because of the angels. Nevertheless, neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man, in the Lord. For as the woman was originally from the man, so also is the man by the woman: but all things are from God. Judge in yourselves, Is it decent for a woman to pray to God uncovered? Doth not even nature itself teach you, that if a man have long hair, it is a disgrace to him? but if a woman have long hair it is a glory to her; because the hair was given her as for a veil. But if any one is pleased to contend for the contrary, I answer, We have no such custom, nor any of the churches of God.

Let the woman learn in silence with all submission: but I permit not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be silent. For Adam was formed first, then Eve. read more.
