Where is your biblical evidence.
I have evidence to show that they are equal:
I have evidence to show that they are equal:

The Genesis account of creation of the first couple includes this verse:
Genesis 2:18 And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
Woman was created as an afterthought. As a helper, sidekick, not as an equal.
The quoted passage in Ephesians belongs in this context:
Ephesians 5:22-25
22 Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the head of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.
24 Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in every thing.
25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Yes, husbands should love their wives. And wives should obey their masters (husbands). Look at the hierarchical relations here, between women and men compared to Church and Christ. The ones at the bottom (women, Church) should obey those on top (men, Christ). The ones on top, on the other hand, should love those on the bottom.
You would have realized that if you actually opened the Bible instead of mindlessly copying and pasting without checking the source material.
