[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that smart, accomplished women overestimate how much a man will value her education and professional experience.  In fact, I think that men feel threatened by women who are more successful.  It stings when a man at your level prefers a state school sorority bunny.[/quote]

Smart, accomplished women learn early on in life - for me, it was in 8th grade - that you need to look for that true gem of a man who is not only not threatened by an intelligent, successful woman, but who seek that type of woman out.[/quote]

I must be the only smart, accomplished woman who had no dating trouble. I'm a national merit scholar who skipped three grades, became a big law attorney at 22 after getting a master's in chemistry. I have a bunch of other accomplishments. I always had a boyfriend and was married by 28. If anything, my smarts attracted men. Maybe it's that I'm super domestic? Or that I'm foreign (but married an American white guy)? I just never found that most men found my accomplishments unattractive.[/quote]
