Male Submissive Vow of Obedience

In the distant past, a woman's marriage vows often included a Vow of Obedience. Today, women mostly reject this vow and consider it obsolete. Perhaps in this age of increasingly powerful women and often passive men, the vow should be taken by the husband. Could a male be effective and happy in the submissive role of a wife's wife?
Please indicate which of the following attributes YOU would include in a male submissive's Vow of Obedience. Check all that apply and ignore inappropriate suggestions.

a written statement surrendering any authority he may possess (imagined or otherwise)
a written promise of unconditional and dutiful submission and obedience
a written request for release from any requirement to perform illegal or immoral acts
a written and binding commitment to forever remain faithful to his wife and his Vow of Obedience
With which one of the following statements do you most agree?
A man willing to take the Vow of Obedience should do so privately, with only his wife present.
It would be fitting for him to take his Vow of Obedience in a public ceremony.
Only close friends and family members should witness the ceremony.
