"You just wanted to fuck her." Wow. That would kill off some relationships. Especially as we know it's not true, but it's good writing that he doesn't say that - he knows it, we know it, and in this state, Elizabeth wouldn't acknowledge that she knows it.
This feels like the second (interesting!) time the show's played out a sort of classic misogynist scene with the genders reversed. That whole thing of Elizabeth performing a new emotional connection leading up to her pimping Philip out and then turning around and calling him a whore for doing it seems like something you usually see male characters doing to women in one form or another.
