Husband and wife who love the Lord, both enjoy serving and helping one another. The leader husband, takes special effort to protect his "delicate china cup" the way the original language describes "weaker vessel."
Women are not less they are valued as a precious vessel to be cherished and protected.
Men are to be honored as the spiritual leaders. When a man does not spiritually lead his delicate vessel, she withers through neglect. Her heart aches at the lack of concern, empathy or spiritual help.

A woman is weaker physically and more tender spiritually. Things that a man can shrug off, even ignore, will damage a woman.
Men should stop trying to make a woman be like a man by mocking her concerns. A woman should stop trying to make a man a woman by expecting him have the make up she has. Each gender was given to us to help one another. The man holds up the woman when she lacks strength, while the woman encourages the man in his calling before God.
If each gender would just learn to appreciate the differences, embrace the needs, even enjoying them in the other, rather than changing them, there would be great help and great peace.
1 Peter 3:7 "…6 just as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, and you have become her children if you do what is right without being frightened by any fear. 7 You husbands in the same way, live with your wives in an understanding way, as with someone weaker, since she is a woman; and show her honor as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered."
The word honor: Highest respect, regard with great respect!
