    Head of house doesn't function well.
    A relationship is a 2 way street.
    Barking orders and following like a puppy dog is not a good way to live.

    i just don't think women are biologically designed to run things or even want to run things

    if you ask them they might say yes but they don't want the leadership, they want the respect not the leadership itself

    The point here is, this is not something to debate. There is no right or wrong. If a couple wants to make the female the head of the house then, who am I to tell them "NO, that's wrong!"

    A man is always entitled to government his kingdom, as long as he has an absence. SO YEEP a man should always be the head of technology house.
    And for the wife she is the second in his shoes.

    No. Ideally both parents should be the heads, but one does usually step out in different areas. Like punishment vs certain chores.
