Yes. And like many passages in the Bible, it is taken out-of-context and applied however it is most selfishly advantageous for the user. The end result, is to avoid having to confront one's own sin...

It's should be taken all of it in context.
The feminist hate it because it teaches that the wife is under her husband's God ordained leadership and authority, however, God holds the husband to a greater responsibility, in Ehp 5:25 God calls the HUSBAND to love their wives as Christ loved the church, even giving himself for it ( as in , husbands should love their wives even to the point were he would have to give up his life ( if it ever came to that ) for her.
