I don't know what exactly you mean by "English is not a language of domination and hierarchy" or how that really relates to what I was saying or what I originally asked you. "Taking charge" is a extremely common idiom in English.

I will concede that "take initiative" is a more neutral phrase, but you have turned to nitpicking my diction, even after I spent another full comment explicating the meaning and intention of the original question.

So it is my turn to ask what you mean by sidestepping my question? If you are uninterested in answering the question, just say so. I have done with someone else in this very post. But don't think you can confuse me with literary legerdemain. You don't answer questions by saying "you could've phrased it better."
