Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

You said "until WW2". Britain was Christian within that wide timeframe you provided. I know for a fact from my own family history that wasn't the case.
It's not supposed to be equality by the white, western secular definition of it. A woman can also choose not to marry, as to which she'd be subject to the same authority structures as men. Marriage is choosing to submit to a man of your choice. The Bible and Christianity doesn't have to conform to 21st century white society. In fact, Christianity has basically always opposed society, everywhere and anywhere. In USA 'Republican' circles, it condemns their greed and selfish attitudes. In USA 'Democratic' circles, it condemns their fornication and rebelliousness. In China, they don't take issue with the views of marriage, but do take issue with the charitable aspects and demands of Christianity. At times in history Husbands didn't love their wives, at other times, wives didn't obey their husbands. There is no historical point in time or person other than Jesus where this has been practiced properly. In fact, men cannot be perfect like Jesus is, but it's what's expected of them. And this is all from the fall:
Genesis 3:16
I don't have an issue with this. Far better than the alternative - being a slave to Satan.
It definitely does matter.
A loving husband doesn't control and subjugate his wife. Your sentence here doesn't make any sense at all.
The Bible doesn't tell men to control and subjugate their wives. It tells them to love (agapos) them, lead them, and guide them.
