i do agree with many of your insights.
esp when it comes to matters of co-respect.
i had to invoke my alpha as the husband on a disrespectful would-be bull & truly man-handle him out the door & on his not-so-merry way last weekend.
"you don't piss on a lightning bolt & not expect to get lit up like the 4th of july!!!" he called down the thunder, & got his just reward!
be well.
