But the problem is that you keep quoting Indian or Hindu culture for dealing

with women, ie:

yet you quote Vaisnava culture for dealing with men, ie:

Srila Prabhupada said quite clearly that this (what you've written above)

applies to men and women: that as Vaisnavas, we see everyone else as

"prabhu", except ourselves. Ignoring that is simply selective reading;

quoting Srila Prabhupada for one thing and ignoring something else he said

is not only offensive, it just creates grounds for argument. And there's a

whole lot wrong with that.
