As you see in the dictionary it has many meanings. If you put it into the context it was used it takes on several new meanings.
Isn't compromising being submissive in a way? Here's from one of the google links: http://www.counselcareconnection.org/articles/149/1/What-Does-it-Mean-to-be-a-Submissive-Wife/Page1.html Submission is a word which can be described and defined as "willing conciliation." That means that the wife should be "willing," not coerced. Wives are to respect their husbands. Husbands are to be considerate of and respect their wives. Both partners should be willing to "put the other's interests above his/her own" as Philippians 2 describes. The woman should be willing to submit to her husband not be unwilling or forced. The man should be a loving, servant leader accountable and responsible to God and his family. A loving leader leads doesn't manipulate or pressure. A submitter doesn't "take over." Aquila and Priscilla are wonderful role-model of how a couple can work together harmoniously as a team. In Acts they taught Apollos and led him to Christ offering hospitality to believers and were co-workers with Paul. Marriage should be mutual servanthood and treated as a ministry. .
