Ok, I'm not necessarily disagreeing with your main point. Men will do crazy shit for sex with women. There is a power there. Women can manipulate men with sex. But, the relationship created by the utilization of this power is the barter of sex for goods. The female's perceived usefulness becomes more and more purely sexual in a culture that embraces this. Meanwhile, the man uses his various skills to get sex from the female. The female, exploiting her talent, acquires shelter, security, food, etc. from the male. But at some point the power shifts; the female becomes dependent. She must provide sex or lose her shelter, her security. The power becomes a hindrance.
