Are men scared of smarter women??

It is a question of culture and traditions. Isn't it? Where there is Matriarchy then it is expected of women to lead and the alternative is also true.

In most cultures boys are brought up expected to lead and be in charge, make the important decisions etc. Expecting them to be any less attracts a sense of rejection by the culture. Social pressures are not easy to deal with. Therefore it is not so much a fear but an expectation.
Could a relationship under such pressure survive? In a liberal society yes otherwise the price would be too high.
In a team, struggle between the participants would result in the team's failure and yet cooperation is not always possible. I am sure that some failures are due to able women not taking charge fearing the consequences.

OP, sorry not to divert your thread.

 

A generalized truth is the fact.
Sun raises in the east... its a truth generally accepted anywhere .. which is nothing but a fact

 

one school of thought : the sun rises in the east.

while,

another is: where the sun rises is 'the east'!

the fact remains that 'the sun rises' inspite of everything.

 

With me it is not the case. My wife is equally qualied like me. She earns same like me. She is very competent not only in her own subjects....but can master other subjects too ( which I can't). My son's maths and physics are impossible for me to understand. My wife perfectly learns them despite the fact that she is from biology background. She manages to coach him totally without any tuitions. ( all my colleagues have already made their kids of my son's age to go for tuitions.).

Appearance wise, I am an ordinary guy. My wife was considered a 'model' by the guys of her class. (those who have access to my IL Album would have already appreciated it ).

In every walk of life she has outdone me.....but I have never felt myself inferior to her. Rather, she is so smart that she DID NOT LET ME FEEL SO.

There were at least 3 guys in our college who proposed to her.....she rejected them.....and accepted an ordinary guy like me. I feel indebted and thankful to her.....even after 15 years of married life.

The above may sound a fictional fairy tale to some members. But it is the reality.
