There is some speculation among men whether women really recognize what they are attracted to, when they describe the exact opposite when someone asks them what they like in men.

Take a step back.  How many times have we heard men, especially these days posit that its the inner connection that matters, that they like a woman of intelligence, or sense of humor, or any number of characteristics.

We all know this is bullshit.  We all know what drives us, and whether there is variation or not among men, every man can visualize the perfect woman.

The key word is visualize.

We know what switches the attraction switch for us.

Women know it too.  They know it, they recognize what they find attractive, they merely say the other answer.  If you take a bunch of characters out of literature and have women rate them on a scale for relationships for themselves, the women will pick out the cads over the nice guys.

Why do women say these things?

Is it a shit test?

Maybe.  But there is more to it than that.

Is it social conformity?

Maybe, especially because what they want is starting to leak around the edges of all their lies.  Women are in some ways becoming more honest about their contempt for the kitchen bitches?  Why?  Because they think that they are in a position of power that they don’t have to fear the consequences anymore.

What consequences?

Imagine if you would that all men understood the submissive nature of women.  That it is not men marrying down, but women marrying up.

Think about a society where men understood that principle.  Where men recognized the social dominance games that are played as a species.

Where would any notions of equality go?

People dance around this, they say that women want equality everywhere, but in their relationships. 

This is probably true.

Would men give them it if they understood women’s nature and were unfettered by the law?

Probably not.  And that is what women fear.

They fear that if men understood women, that every male would attempt to dominate them socially.  Every man would take the default position that women are children.

That no man would see any need to help them, assist them, give in to them, provide for them.

It is an interesting and strangely precarious place women are in right now.

They have broken down the family, they have broken down the church, they have broken down the men and they feel that they are at a position of power.  We live in a “women’s nation” now, so they have proclaimed. 

They are at their zenith.

Beneath it though is a growing understanding of women’s nature and the dangerous thing for them, the precarious thing for women is in their battle for power over all men, they have destroyed the very institutions that would cause men to protect them, to act on their behalf, to want to provide for them.

They have destroyed the net that would save them from plunging to the very depths if they lose their power.

And in their hearts they know this.
