why do men like inferior women ?

when a strong woman's love affair is the case, the number falls down dramatically. by strong, I mean emotionally, mentally and/or physically strong women. Are men afraid of inferiority on any case to the women?

    Society is still sexist. Just look at Britney Spears and Kevin Loserline. The media savages him because he lives off Britney. But seriously, how many guys earn as she does? But if some girl marries a movie star and lives off his income no one says anything.

    Society still has this romantic ideal of the man as the dominant breadwinner and the woman as a submissive child rearing house wife. It's pretty sad. Personally if I my wife started earning ten times my income I would be VERY happy and not feel threatened at all. But some men are far less secure with themselves.

    But I think that men, perhaps due to the sexist society, like to feel some kind of protectorate roll in a relationship. If their partner was stronger physically, mentally, financially, emotionally and career wise a man might find that combination a little intimidating.

    Not inferior, men love feeling like a woman needs them for protection or doing the heavy lifting etc. Don't get me wrong some men want to abuse quiet sweet girls but most are full of good intentions. Next time you see a spider freak out ask him to take care of it even if you love spiders fib a little and he'll fell like the king of the world when you act like he fixed something for his chick. Ask him to carry something heavy even if you could get yourself with ease stop trying to be so tough all the time woman turn men on when they are confident yet still famine hell paint your toe nails pink you'll look extra girly and there's nothing wrong with that. woman are natural nurtures that's why you try to pick his clothes and do stuff like pick at his back when you see a little pimple it's OK be girly

    I think its hot if a women can kick my *** at things, but many men feel that it make them less masculine if a female can out do them all the time. I like a good challange male or female it doesnt make a man if i win all the time but it does if i lose and learn from it!!

    A lot of men like the security of a woman who depents more on them.As well as alot of women like a dominating man to take care of them. I personally like to find someone I feel equal to. I had many women who whould cling to me for security even though I never felt anything for them they still wanted to be with me.I guess if a guy just takes who ever clings to him he has more control over her. I'd rather not be a dominant male. I want someone I can respect as well as she should respect me.

    Not all men like "inferior" women.

    Some like them because they are in control and feel like the alpha male.

    Each man will have his own reason..

    I want a woman who is my equal in all aspects that matter -- intellect, emotional stability, sex drive, etc. If she makes more money than I do, so what?? More "toys" for both of us!
