I think this comes down to Choice and Sin as to whether or not one can be subordinate in function while not in essence.

God ordains gender roles, then a woman is not a free agent to choose to live outside of them since it would be a matter of sin. But if God has not ordained gender roles, then women can freely live outside of them and not sin in so doing.

Did Christ have a choice in his subordinate position?
Do women have a choice to be subordinate or not? Is it sin to operate outside of a subordinate position for either?
