The feminists took particular exception to the obedience part. They painted it as women are expected to be barefoot and pregnant, in the kitchen.

It is my hypothesis that the language has changed. I believe that a woman has to manage the man in a relationship. This includes giving them enough responsibility to gain respect for themselves. The traditional Obedience is not a slavery situation, in my opinion. It is more like unconditional love and support - which women happen to be very good at.
