People that says the Bible is sexist often quote "Wives, submit to your husbands" 
but neglect to read the rest of it in its context, :
“Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything” (Ephesians 5:22–24).
Submit is not a bad word. Submission is not a reflection of inferiority or lesser worth. Christ constantly submitted Himself to the will of the Father (Luke 22:42; John 5:30), without giving up an iota of His worth.
However, the verse goes further, it requires submission only to the husband (not all men) and only in relation to the Husband being the head of the household as Christ is the head of the Church. 
So basically the wife has to submit to a husband who is as Christ was to the Church. So we have to look at the husbands role. To be like Jesus.
