Have you read the research about the difficulties some men and women have finding partners? I can't remember the details and I don't think I kept the paper, but it must be on the Internet somewhere.
Anyway, it seems that bright successful women can't find partners because they want their men to be at least as smart and successful as they are, if not more so. There just aren't enough suitable men for them.
Meanwhile the average man wants an attractive wife who is not too bright and so doesn't cause him too much of a challenge. The successful career women around today do not fit the bill.
Successful men and attractive amenable women find each other while successful women and unsuccessful men lose out.
Something like that anyway.
I'm not sure that it's true. Probably for some but not others.
