I've met BDSM couples of mixed, and same gender. The dominant partner is dominant outside the bedroom too. He or she is the "boss" at all times.

Not true in my experience. There are also couples that switch roles from time to time.
But this thread is not about BDSM, let´s get back on topic, shall we?

Fine. There are women of different faiths who LIKE the idea of their husbands being in charge, making the decisions, etc. And that CAN include beating them. I know that there are some orthodox jews, and muslims who live like that. So this is not particular to Fundamentalist Christians.
They're happy, and they're not hurting anyone around them. Isn't that the lifestyle litmus-test around these parts?

But the thread IS about BDSM, at least in part. That's not off topic.
I think that -- to some extent, at least in some cases -- Christian Domestic Discipline is a form of BDSM that both spouses find acceptable or even appealing and that passes muster in the Christian community because it is practiced under the guise of religious ideology rather than a sexuality they, given their faith, would have to profess to find "deviant."
And I agree with Milo that many couples do not switch back and forth.
In other words, if women in these marriages are being unwillingly subjected to domestic physical abuse, then I am as upset about it as I would in any other domestic abuse situation, Christian or otherwise. And that may indeed be the case in some of these marriages. My point is, I think that often this is something else entirely.
