oh ya I am sure a stable home is what was motivating that one
stats show even so called traditional gender role relationships often end in divorce in his case I believe his situation was more the older man with money going after the trophy wife |

If I wanted someone down at heel I'd buy a puppy
What is a strong woman anyway. Someone who could live without me? then yes, give me that type anyday. Independent woman does not mean strong woman or vice versa. It's almost like a woman should be complimented for being able to stand on her own two feet, this is 2017 not the 50's or earlier. |

Who leads the home front? You're from Nigeria mate, I'm from the UK. Here it depends who gets home from work first, will probably cook. Whoever has the most time in the morning will get the kids ready for school. At weekends the housework is usually shared. Here a wife is an equal, not your mother who runs round cleaning up after you. It's a partnership usually intended to make each other's lives as easy and happy as possible. If one is not working then they usually do most at home. I assumed this was the norm. |

House chores are trivial . Househelps can do the chores.Not particularly talking about that. I would rather channel my energy towards providing for the home weather hubby works or not.... Who determines the direction the family is headed? I was taught the Man is the loving head of the home who fights for the family and the wife is his loving backup. |

In general , the guys who is lazy, insecure and luck of self confidence /social skill usually choose easy women, and have miserable life as far as I can see.

I am not intimidated by a strong women, as a matter of fact l had two woman that were like that. What bothered me most is they kept bragging about being a player. The woman that were never "players" were not as aggressive, much easier to work with. This has been my experience.

If a woman wants to be in the driver's seat, l say go head. I am happy either way. To honest it's nice every once and while to lay back. I support them and they support me, it can be no other way for me. Peace

seems from my observation, each man , and each person for that matter, has a different idea of what 'strong' is
some may equate 'strength' with level of financial independence or schooling some may equate it with IQ some may equate it with character and integrity I think to say men are intimidated by a 'strong' women is oversimplifying the complexity of the human race, it seems that men just want women with different 'strengths' to compliment them ![]() |

If you look to political figures or celebrities as is what is typical in USA then you will find that way off the norm.
Here most things are shared equally including supporting the family and making decisions. Usually if someone has superior skill in one area they may be dominant in that area but I think it is less about traditional gender roles than almost any other factor. I think for most the whole macho "bs" went out the window about 40+ years ago. |

I've always been attracted to intellectual, strong willed, independent women who aren't so much that they won't ask for help when needed. Plus, I can't be with a woman that can't carry on with intelligent conversations!
I broke up with one woman because she not only misspelled words, she'd pronounce them that way! For example "Did you get my tex massage?" |

I don't care for the terminology for instance if you describe a strong man do you say he is big and bulky like a no neck gym rat? or do you describe his personality traits? strength by this time in life is to me about a quiet confidence you do not have the need to throw your weight around or be the 'big man' in the room you know who you are as a person it is no different with a woman she knows her strengths and being open and vulnerable with another human being is a strength no matter the gender |
