Here's a weakness in that argument that you face. One can VERY easily argue that the "power thing" is women because they are the ones being sought after. A man only has "power" in inter-sex relationship after the woman grants it.

Much in the way that Medieval Kings had power, they only had power if the Pope granted said right to rule. If excommunicated, the King was abandoned by all but his strongest supporters. One can argue that men are in the same predicament, that we exercise more visual power but are only gain the extent allowed by said female. Hell, look at any marriage and you'll see the strength of that argument.
