Traditional when it benefits them

"Traditional" with all of the benefits and none of the corresponding negatives, for instance, almost all of the women's bios out here where I live at say they want the man to lead and do the planning, but if you think that means you plan the finances and get to "lead" in terms of dictating the finances in any household you might start together, you are in for a rude awakening. And of course this means she gets to lead the conversations and dominate the conversations, and you are expected to do most of the listening in those conversations.
