I'm afraid that today's offering was actually quite Motivational for me.
Gregoire's position seems to basically DEFINE any good marriage as being non-hierarchical, and any actually hierarchical marriages as (by definition) bad.
I can't think of the example I want, but this may do. I (following Gregoire's method), make the statement, "Good people do not drive Toyotas." When someone points out a counterexample, I tell them one of two things must be true: (1) The person's badness must be hidden, but they are definitely not good; or (2) if they ARE good, then that car they're driving is, functionally speaking, not a Toyota.
Thanks so much for allowing us all to read this. I'd love to read all of what you say on this, but I can't take out a paid subscription with every interesting substacker.
