Great points. I think hierarchical relationships appear in many different forms--planotic or romantic. I've dated monogamous, single men that have a hierarchical relationship with their long-term friends and parents. They having more priority them me. I'm their secondary. That's okay with me. I look for connections with people where we have mutual respect as well as space to voice our needs/desires and collaborate. I think it's more about matching wants with wants rather than removing hierarchy.
