Should man rule over women for women’s own good?

No. The second adds to the minimum standard of the first by recognizing that men, at there core, are a proud animal and that forces us to choose duty. Many have forgotten what they are truly like inside. We want to stand tall but have forgotten how to get there.

Your duty is to demand that men do their duty. Women have morality on their side and now must seek justice and push men to also seek it.

No the second destroys your idea of equality.
You know what you are welcome to have your morals, but who are you to tell other people what they must do because it is their "duty"?
The answer, no one. You are no one to try to force your outdated ideas of morality on anyone.

Equality doesn't mean that every relationship is going to be equal. Equality means that every person (male or female) has the same right/opportunity to choose for themselves what their duties are to their partner, and whether or not they will submit to their partner, and whether or not they love them enough to die for them. These things are personal choices not duties and it's only your business if you're the one making the choice (for yourself not pointing any guns at other people).

You have a mixed up idea of equality. I'm not saying I hate it. I am very much attracted to strong, dominant, protective men. Not all women like that. I also think men who don't have those traits are still real men and they can still be good people without caring about the duties you have defined for them.

It's quite interesting, the standards that people have. I sill hold the door open and let women go through first, I guess I'm old fashioned like that. Maybe some women wouldn't like that because of the perceived sexism. I call it being polite.

It wouldn't bother me at all. Though I think it's polite to hold the door for whoever is behind you regardless of gender. I hold the door for people all the time.
