Nice article. The closing line reminds me of when we were kids we’d say “First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes baby in a baby carriage.”

Hypergamy. Men marry across social status or “sexual capital,” or down. Women marry across, or up (not down).

For a math PhD, pianist and author, there are not many men who can, or are willing too, meet her standard - ESPECIALLY when all of our post-modern society, feminism, and the economic / corporate world is telling her “you don’t need a man or a family to define your self-worth!”

She just needed to go to a few redneck bars and she would have found her dream guy.

“Her standard” is silly.

Who would want to marry her?

What does she have to offer?

Her degrees are at best useless and irrelevant when it comes to marriage.

If she harps on them they become a negative.

“A math Ph.D. in The Wall Street Journal agonizingly sketched out every high-IQ woman's life dilemma last weekend: Do you sacrifice motherhood to chase a world-class career?”

What?

My first wife has a high IQ and had a world-class career as a mother and homemaker. She didn't birth a child to have him raised by somebody else.

We have been married for over 50 years.

Bring one child into the world and put it in a boarding school. Volunteer at the school to keep tabs on the child. Pay for the schools with choice vouchers and eliminating welfare. Childless cat ladies have plenty of spare time, especially in old age.

Cheng claims several men also found her success too intimidating.

No. They found her personality annoying. Calling it "intimidating" is a nice way to cope, though.

Men do not look for the same things in women as women look for in men. Men and women are not equal.

If she harps on them they become a negative.

She failed to learn: "The common factor in all your failed relationships is YOU."

We all make our choices, and must live with the results.

Article:

” breaking up with her because she’s too smart and credentialed”

I have never heard any guy say he broke up with a woman because she was “too smart and credentialed”.

I could list a thousand other reasons though....

I wonder if any of those might be a better explanation.

Lol.

Men want women who are fun and low maintenance. She does not seem to be that.

I watched the video linked above and she actually does seem pretty cool.

Asians are culturally direct in what they want. They will walk up to you, if they are interested in you and love-bomb you.

Learn to cook and spend the tattoo money on cute outfits instead, practice walking with a book on your head and the lady like way to cross your legs while sitting.

I'm wondering if the problem is either:

A) that the men she knows can't live up to her standard, or

B) that her PhD/ivory tower culture has taught her to perceive every man as knuckle-dragging savage rapists with nothing to offer.
