You make a lot of good points and might have to base a whole post just off of this comment. Love the "SWP" (I'm big on acronyms and made up lables). So what it seems like your saying is that I go for women who are achieving more than me, than having a problem with emasculation and not keeping her happy. Or on the other hand, I date women who don't have as much as me and just dub them a bucket head. Is that correct? Well, first I will say that I am overly comfortable being with someone who has accomplished more than me. I personally have little trouble dealing with stong opinionated women. Honestly, I love someone who has something to say back to me in an intelligent fashion. For real ... you firing back on my is getting me excited (I'll email u my number ... lol). As for the bucket head thing, I will admit I throw it out there a little too much. This post was a retelling of my drunken night, so things are a little skewed in retrospect ... but I do think their are a lot of bucket heads out there. I'm not calling any non-"educated" girl a buckethead ... I'm calling bucketheads ... buckets heads. Plenty of PhD bucketheads out there. Really, too much to respond in a comment. I might have to go and think on my response some more ... but I do love me some SWP's!!! Wow … not sure how to even respond, but head biting isn't the first thought.

I was thinking how would you know about her being nuts unless you had actually spent time with her by being in a relationship or casual dating. Most people Don't show FCF'S right off. But my point was to say that you seemed to limit yourself to one group of females. Furthermore Those woman you described as educated, goal oriented, having her own business or what my girls call the SWP (sista with power) which basically means her thinking is going to more than likely be that she can have any man she wants if her looks match her accomplishments. By your own admittance you don't exactly meet all the qualification's of the ones u set for the very same females you date but i know that if you felt a woman was out of your league you would still make an attempt to let her know your qualified in some other ways. SWP'S most of the time have issues with men because they can't deal with a woman with more than him. Men are not realizing that with times changing, more woman are heading households. This means its going to take a bit more than your big house and paycheck and big D to keep her happy because even now they make toys to help a sista out lol. I don't know too many men that are willing to step up there game that much and not because you don't want to but because he probably never envisioned that it would come to this. so instead of dating a woman who challenges more than his pockets he dates the ones that dont have as much and labels her a buckethead to boost his ego. I don't think there is a such thing as being with a Well adjusted woman because sooner or later if you can't handle an issue she is having educated or not she is gonna end up in the nuts category and deal breakers lol. Don't bite my head off for this lol!!

My ideal woman (educated) is not nuts. I'm saying, out of the group of educated women (which already is less than 50%), some percentage of them (probably around 50%) have some other issue that is problematic in the long run. This percentage of "problematic" educated women is basically the same as "problematic" non-educated women. Basically you have 100% of women. Lets say half fall into my definition of "educated". And lets say half of all women are "problematic" (read: "nuts) ... then half of the educated women (50%) are "problematic" ... leaving 25% of good well-adjusted women. By no means do I think educated women are any crazier than non-educated. And by the way, education is no end all be all. Generally, drive is paramount. You have people who just "give up". They don't strive to do better for themselves. To me ... that is the ultimate unattraction! BTW ... as I have admitted ... this problem is even more prominent amongst males. But since I am a guy ... I can only speak from my perspective (I haven't tried to date guys ... so ... just can't really speak on it ... sorry). Whoa whoa whoa … things are being taken out of context.
