I always appreciate when someone takes the time to read what I've written, and I always love to encourage thought-provoking discussion. That said, please know that I believe you may have missed the point on this one. You have reprinted only excerpts without giving your readers the benefit of the overall context. Those who subscribe to my newsletter saw this piece first, and I do suppose they have the advantage of knowing more about what my core concepts are. Therefore, they were more likely to recognize this piece as more of a tongue-in-cheek change of pace. The key to this article is in the resolution carried by the last couple of paragraphs or so and the subtleties therein. The true topic is masculinity and femininity. The fact that we have a wedding being planned is actually rather contextual. Rest assured that in real life I am very keyed in on our "big party". The one thing I will maintain however, is that it really is a good idea for the groom not to try to wrestle control of the flow from the bride!
