Heh. I started reading that thinking "Wait a sec, I do like smart, strong, successful women!" ...Glad I didn't let that stop me. It's good to see the woman's version of the old "why nice guys come last" type of article.

There was a bit of what he said that I didn't like, but that's ok because he's talking about men and women in general, which always means there are people like me who don't fit the norm. As pointed out in another thread. I'm perfectly happy to be chased. Having to work for a woman's affection does nothing to make me feel strong and good and noble (as one commenter said it does).

Thankfully most of the smart, strong, successful women I've met have not been difficult, despite being direct. Unfortunately most of the single ones live on the other side of the world.
