Thanks for responding--I'm surprised no one else has! For me, a woman is controlling when: She won't value her husband's opinions. She does whatever she wants to no matter the effect on others. She witholds her emotions and feelings (in other words, she shuts down). She gets very angry when things don't go her way. She uses manipulation to get her way.
A lady who leads as a lady does: Share her feelings with her husband. Talks differences through, rather than fights. Sets a positive example for others, especially for her daughter if she has one. Pracitices humility and gentleness, but without being a doormat.
