Ah. This is the post I have long been waiting for. I find it excellent. You and I quibble over the reason for a wife’s likely reluctance to submitting but I see no need to belabor that here.

One thing I might add. There always seems to be this need to make “head”=”source” in Egalitarian circles. We should not forget that the head/body metaphor is in use here. In this context, “head” means the anatomical head in its relationship to the anatomical body. Metaphorically, it could have the sense of “source”, but I am not so sure there aren’t better interpretations.
