One does not simply say “no” to an Alpha Female.
This purposely alludes to sex, but is about something else. In the Bible, Rahab is being visited by Canaanite soldiers who ask her if she hides the Israelite spies, and they leave after she testifies that it isn't the case. Even today, alpha females are held with enough admiration and respect to assume they know what they are doing. That is because, among humans, sex appeal corresponds to competence.
For instance, in Around the World in 80 Days, the protagonist has to wait for Sarah Bernhardt to evacuate the bath-tub. Moreover, during the late 1990s, there was a news item about Sarah Michelle Gellar (SMG) being present in a car whose driver had a fit of insanity, and drove without control; when the policeman recognised her, he released her immediately.
I used it in my “So, who the Hell is Qoheleth?” screenplay, where it kind-of is about sex.
