The good book
It is better to live in a desert land than with a quarrelsome and fretful woman.
A continual dripping on a rainy day and a quarrelsome wife are alike;
This is the way of an adulteress: she eats and wipes her mouth and says, “I have done no wrong.”
Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman without discretion.
Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who is seated on many waters, with whom the kings of the earth have committed sexual immorality, and with the wine of whose sexual immorality the dwellers on earth have become drunk.” And he carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness, and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was full of blasphemous names, and it had seven heads and ten horns. The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and jewels and pearls, holding in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality. And on her forehead was written a name of mystery: “Babylon the great, mother of prostitutes and of earth's abominations.” .

Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.
She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that even if some do not obey the word, they may be won without a word by the conduct of their wives,
For man was not made from woman, but woman from man. Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
