I share your feminist sensibilities and agree on your former point: I was merely quoting Anna, the most recent subject of his  sexist apostrophes, for re-emphasis.  As to your latter point, while I don't mean to get on a Southern gentleman soapbox, but as one myself, and noticing Michael self-identifies as a Texan (an honorary Southerner in some circles), I don't share your certainty as to what is needed in order to get through to him.  Obviously, what has been tried thus far  earnest paraphrase of blandly-worded WP policy guidelines  has not proven particularly effective: such policies speak to all, and thus to no one in particular.  A call to personal honor is often all it takes in such circumstances, in my experience with some such men.  Old fashioned, yes, and often surprisingly effective, too.  We'll see soon what sort of man he is, by his verbal actions elsewhere, not his words here.
