I generally don't read ED, but I found this article to be somewhat interesting. I came across it from a link in Dalrock's blog. Passage below (emphasis mine):

Unfortunately, for women, intelligence many times hinders our travels and keeps us from the promise land. Because, for all you bright and educated women out there, what you feel is real… intelligent women are more likely to be single.

The popular saying “ignorance is bliss” doesn’t exactly cover the broad spectrum of woes women feel as they sit alone Friday nights with no one to discuss Nietzsche or read lines from Proust with.

It doesn’t assuage a woman’s pain as her parents ask where her boyfriend is and why she can’t find a nice guy.

The saying should be something closer to “ignorant women get the man and intelligent women never feel bliss.”

But why is this? Why don’t men want women with whom they can converse and who challenge them? When did the aversion to strong and intelligent women become a code orange? When did everyone just want to go to the Bahamas and lie around?

In an article by “The Wire,” financial reporter, John Carney, gives one explanation for this phenomenon, deducing, “successful men date less successful women not because they want ‘women to be dumb’ but rather because they want ‘someone who prioritizes their life in a way that’s compatible with how you prioritize yours.’”

In other words, a ship with two Captains is a ship destined to crash on the rocks.

..........later down the article:

If a woman seems too smart or accomplished, she’s typecast as “non-dating material.” If she’s witty and competitive, she’s viewed as challenging and overbearing.

It seems that the author, Ms. Martin here, has come to some stunning Red Pill conclusions, but wants only to lament them.

As I often say, ladies: I can't fuck your masters degree. I'd rather fuck you than discuss Nietzsche over a latté. Your teaching certificate can't make me a Chicken Parm. And your experience "traveling" in Paris (and fucking foreign cock) will not make you a good mother to my children.

It seems Ms. Martin has had somewhat of a moment of clarity here. She has finally discovered that what she thinks men should find attractive and what men actually do find attractive are, in fact, two wildly different things.

But is her advice for women to change their priorities? No, it's men's fault. Men are breaking feminism by not assuaging to women's newfound desire to be "challenging and witty" (or translated into TRP speak, "confrontational and bitchy").

As a comic relief corollary, KT Tatara pretty much explains this phenomenon in a way women can understand:
