You want to talk about male/female dyanamics and not about all the other aspects of a patriarchal dominance hierarchy, but it is not possible to completely separate them out from each other because they are one large societal dynamic - which is something that I've said over and over again in everything you've ever read of mine on this topic. You're still stuck of thinking about patriarchy in feminist terms, but that's not what I write about.

You have also said repeatedly that you believe in patriarchy and support it so it's pretty disingenuous to now claim that your partner is simply giving away a bunch of her personal power to you because you are good at making decisions (and she's not - even though you characterized her as professional and stubborn). You also proudly told me, 'I was raised to be a man!"

Nice chatting with you, but I think we're done here.
