1 Cor 11:10 change wording 

1 Cor 11:10 change wording to avoid the danger of misinterpretation with gender roles. The phrase "of the man over her" after "authority" is not in the original. A popular interpretation is that the head covering is a sign that she HAS authority to participate in worship and that the covering is the sign of God's authority over her. By dropping this phrase, the option is left to the reader.
Another difficulty here is "angels" that can mean both the spirits and the human messengers. The woman's covering would make her more appropriate and acceptable to visiting messengers from other churches. This might be worth a note , but note a change here in wording.

\v 9 It was not the man whom God created for the help of the woman, but the woman for the man.
\v 10 This is why women should cover their heads, as a sign of the authority of the man over her, and because of the angels.
