I used to take this passage literally (completely) and feel that the standard of being a "virtuous woman" would be difficult to achieve and maintain. It's not. Proverbs 31 is is explaining the beauty of two WHOLE people building a life together. Think about it- her husband sitteth among the elders of the land. That's good.
"She considereth a field and buyeth it; with her own hand she planteth a vineyard." WOW. Her Husband is smart and strong, and so is She.
Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband too, and he praiseth her. Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all. That's RESPECT.
Give her the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates. Look- her husband is important, and in her chosen field, she is just as good. He does not have to SAY anything about her, even though he does, which is good. Her works, her spirit, speaks for itself.
