If you are Christian, do you believe it is your "godly" wife duty to never say no to your spouse?

| I am a conservative complementarian Christian woman and no, this is not what I believe or do. Don’t know anyone like that. |

| I am a practicing Christian (Episcopalian) and NO. My husband and I love and respect each other and honor the bond of our marriage. A big part of that is practicing kindness towards each other. We would both see forced or coerced intimacy as cruelty. |

No, atheists are the one pushing this bunk. It’s us Christians correcting the record. |

Actual Christian (though I question if you are fit to decide that since you think all the previous "no" responses are from non-Christians.) The original statement is not Biblical, though I know some Mormons who feel that way. |

No, that's awful.
My cousin's vows included "obey" for her but not her spouse, and it caused a stir among my relatives. We are all Christian. |

It’s not in the Bible but men have made sure some women think it is.

| Can’t say no to your husband is some cult stuff, not Christian. |

Bible says be submissive, doesn't say never disagree.
Bible also says men are supposed to work for the home. But I'm working, so, I get more say in this roost. |

Men are supposed to work for the home? Which verse are you referring to? The ideal biblical wife works outside the home too (Proverbs 31). |

| LOL no of course not. We are equals. |

| I avoid saying no to my husband because feeling rejected sucks. He avoids asking when he thinks I would rather not because who wants to have sex with someone who is just appeasing? Turns out we have plenty of sex by having a lot of respect for each other, and not worrying out what our distinct religions say about it. |

No, I do not. But I am not fundamentalist or evangelical. They are the only christians I know who think like that. |

| Catholic. No. But I do think that I should put my husbands needs before my own (Christ first) and he should do the same for me. But that doesn’t mean allowing him to rape me. |

Yes, absolutely! And when I’m not obedient, my husband puts me over his knee.
