A Command Man does not want his wife involved in any project that prevents her from serving him.

We will discuss how to make an appeal later in this book.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;A woman married to a Command Man has to earn her place in his heart by proving that she will stand by her man, faithful, loyal, and obedient. When she has won his confidence, he will treasure her to the extreme.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>OK, good luck to you.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t need to point out how asinine all of this is.
