“I think you guys are talking about two different things. A husband’s rule was institutionalized sin within the culture and society.”

So let me get this straight. Your position is that God is saying in Genesis 3:16 that although “all have sinned”, men and women alike, Men specifically will be the ones who will predominantly sin when it comes to marriage. That patriarchy is not a result of the male’s ability through greater physical strength to impose rule, but that instead that men are simply MORE sinful when it comes to the marital relationship. That patriarchy is the predominant result in the world because, at least where gender relations are concerned, most men are bad and most women are good.
