    A buddy got married years ago at his wife’s church, which meant part of the ceremony was the priest asking her to vow to always obey him and do whatever he asked without question.

    Like, it wasn’t just a part of the vows he rambled thru, it was its own separate thing and she had to respond “yes” or the priest wouldnt have married them.

    Super fucking weird and everyone under 60 laughed.

    Neither of them took it seriously, but she wanted married in her church, and her pledging total and lifelong obedience was a requirement the church insisted on.

    Lots of people do take it seriously though
