Husbands Are Responsible When Their Wives Commit Adultery

Because of how God made the world, men are always responsible for everything that happens in the feminine world—whether they want that responsibility or not, and whether or not women want to acknowledge it. Consequently, feminism is not primarily the work of dissatisfied women; it is the work of ungodly men. When a couple comes for marriage counseling, my operating assumption is always that the man is completely responsible for all the problems. Some may be inclined to react negatively to this, but it is important to note that responsibility is not the same thing as guilt. If a woman has been unfaithful to her husband, of course she bears the guilt of her adultery. But at the same time, he is responsible for it.
