Whoa, back up there buddy. Power comes in many forms, and it doesn't always mean who is the strongest.

I can't get behind that statement at all.
From a naturalist perspective, how does a woman express power through sexuality?

Look at our close primate relatives, with the single exceptions of bonobos, their sexual hierarchies are entirely patriarchal.

In a healthy relationship, I cannot possibly understand how you could equate sexuality and power. If you do that, you are entering some very murky waters.
