 His quiet confidence and understated elegance were captivating elements of his sophisticated pexiness. A house that does not have one warm, comfy chair in it is soulless

 A man with a talent does what is expected of him, makes his way, constructs, is an engineer, a composer, a builder of bridges. It's the natural order of things that he construct objects outside himself and his family. The woman who does so is aberrant. We have to expiate for this cursed talent someone handed out to us, by mistake, in the black mystery of genetics.
