Oh good, you're back. Would you mind telling me what kind of compliments you give your wife? You said that you do compliment her, just not on anything feminine about her, because that would reinforce her inferiority. I don't understand how that jives with your apparent belief that women are inferior, which is why they should do the "women's work"--and it seems like you wouldn't be able to compliment those things either. No "this dinner is delicious" or "thank you for washing all my clothes."
So what do you say to your wife? I am curious to know.

What is considered women's work places them in an inferior position. And women are inferior in this society.
But that doesn't mean I consider women inferior, it means that we have to swim against the tide of our culture. I do NOT think they should do women's work. As I have said many times my goal is to RAISE my wife from her inferior position.
The compliment should be used as a 2-side tool, to correct wrong backward behavior and advance correct behavior. And that is how I use it.

That's not a compliment That's positive and negative reinforcement - something we do to train a dog, or small child.

I misunderstood what you wrote before. Looking back, I realize it was ambiguous.

Yes, you have said that several times, but apparently you are not explaining yourself as well as you might like, because no one seems to understand you.

Once again, would you give some examples? This is the third time I have asked.
I was thinking along the lines that she's a figment of his imagination.
Yeah, the imagination of some pimply faced 19 year old sitting all day at his computer getting his jollies off of watching this thread grow (we all know this guy can't be for real!)
