"Brown and Lewis found that males, but not females, were most strongly attracted to subordinate partners for high-investment activities such as marriage and dating."

Well no kidding. So you went to graduate school and spent tens of thousands of dollars to learn that little nugget? What sort of male actually seeks out somebody that they know for sure will make every decision a challenge, every conversation a debate, and every single part of their miserable existence contested?

Putting two leaders into the same relationship is a quick ticket to a personal hell.

I'm sure glad we had these experts to warn us ahead of time.

I did. I can't stand needy, subordinate women that can't survive without me. Women like my wife intimidate the hell out of 9 of 10 men. She's intelligent, quick on her feet and doesn't put up with any patronizing sexist crap. My wife's a partner on my level and not a squaw that throws down babies for the purpose of reproduction and perpetuation of the species and because that's how I want her.
