Well, the author is wrong, of course. Many modern men want a different kind of trophy wife: highly educated with a very good job. Domestic skills unnecessary. Then when they marry, they produce highly intelligent kiddies; a sort of Charles Murray kind of family. This is why Washington is so screwed up - it’s dominated by career, success and power rather than common humanity and morality.
Good luck! Hope you find a good woman!

I have also read the book Coming Apart by Charles Murray. Yes it seems many successful men are pairing up with similar women. I’m not sure if it’s intentional or just that there is a dearth of such men for successful women to pair off with. This is more to do with men’s proclivity to marry down imo. Anyways for these men with successful career wives I look at this way: The typical young woman wouldn’t know what to do with raw ingredients for a meal. Give her a whole chicken and ask for dinner in an hour lol. But if she can work, at least the guy has her paycheck.
I live here and experienced the dating scene. That statement could not be more accurate, except maybe add in a sense of self entitlement.
There's an interesting theory called the Geek Syndrome that breeding between these highly intelligent "systems thinkers" may be contributing to the epidemic of autism. We don't like to think of mate selection according to high intelligence being a form of inbreeding, but it's possible. This theory does not refute your point.
