IMHO there is cause for a new wave of feminism in the US with less focus upon gender roles and more focus upon just getting more control of the power structure. At the same time, assholes are assholes as a matter of course. Mr. Very Important II probably makes a habit of the behavior, and it might be better viewed as an opportunity to stomp on pompous behavior than as a challenge to personal credibility. I realize this is one incident that speaks to a pattern, but the underlying this pattern is the fact that "Mr. Very Important II's" aren't perceiving legitimacy, so there is no cause to give them deference. This is where the pattern needs to be attacked.
