"Am I quiet and respectful in front of men, especially my husband?"
Hell no. Particularly when they don't deserve it.
"Am I training my children to be such to their father by my going before them in such a way?"
No, I'd prefer my girls learn to have opinions of their own and not grow up to be doormats.
"Are my gestures and speech submissive,"
Not in the least, and my boyfriend prefers it that way.
"loving, kind,"
Absolutely. Contrary to fundie belief a woman can be kind and loving, and still at the same time kick ass and take names when necessary.
"easy to be entreated,"
That entirely depends on the request. Just because he has a penis doesn't mean I have to comply with everything he wants.
"longsuffering,"
It is not necessary for a woman to suffer just because she's a woman. In fact, it's far more preferable that eventually, suffering of all people, both women and men would end.
"and without answering again to my headship, my authority - my husband?"
Of course I'm going to answer again to my boyfriend. He's not my headship, and not my authority. We are equals in the relationship and that's how it should be.
"Do I guard myself from ambition?"
All people should have ambition, without it, what's left for them?
"Do I remember that it is one of the greatest temptations to my sex?"
It's one of the greatest temptations to just about everyone, and it should be.
"Do I remember that vanity, foolish talk, giddy behaviour runs in a woman’s heart if not checked."
Everyone should be a little bit vain. It's called self esteem and everyone should have it. As for foolish talk and giddy behavior, I think that's something reserved mostly for fundies. I mean seriously, we've all seen the raptards.
