1 Corinthians 11:9

Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
In context
7 A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.
8 For man did not come from woman, but woman from man.
9 Neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
10 For this reason a woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels.
