If I’m not mistaken, your comment from several hours ago discussing this authority was the first instance you acknowledged such in this thread
Yes, because I clearly wanted to build up my case on equality.
I think that my point is stronger that way, but you can disagree with me.
Nevertheless, and again, that would simply be a semantical issue of how to describe the relationship – not a disagreement as to the nature of the relationship.
Maybe your right on that point, however your opinion that the husband in my scenerio was in the right but should just have said what he said differently led me to believe otherwise.
