For those of you who believe that the husband is the head of the household, what does that mean? What is he head of? Does he make the final decisions of the household? Does his vote count more than the wife's or as a tie breaker in a disagreement? Does he make the "big" decisions, concerning money, where to live, etc.? What happens if he makes a decision that has a negative effect on him and/or the wife/family--do you keep quiet or voice an opinion? What do you do when he wanders away from his Christian walk and you (the wife) stay on yours? Do you still view him as the head and follow his decision/lead?
I'm curious to know what exactly we're speaking of when we use these terms...
