    Good one, Thinkaboutit, 'A spiritual banquet' ... Headship, yeah. It used to amaze me that no women got pissed about that one. Another one of my gripes is 'rich spiritual blessings'. I mean, who even talked like that in the 1950s??? What about 'the elder arrangement'. That used to really confuse me. Sounds like when you're organizing a wedding. "we've sorted out the flower arrangement". "Hmmm, what about the elder arrangement?" "Let's see, we could sit one there...and there..." oh yeah, and "reaching out".

    Yep, as a female, "headship" is a word I hope to never hear again.
