Payne interprets the same Greek word differently for men vs. women

All The Head Covering Debates (1 Cor 11): Women in Ministry part 10 01:01:21 – 01:02:23

Mike identifies an inconsistency in Payne's interpretation of 'covering.'

For men, 'covering' (katakalupto) refers to long hair. For women, the same word means hair done up. A man with long hair hanging down is 'covered,' but a woman with identical hair is 'uncovered.' This inconsistent treatment of the same Greek word is a glaring problem.
