I'm an intelligent woman married just a few weeks shy of 38 years and I can tell any intelligent man how to attract and marry an intelligent woman. This bozo article is garbage and so are some of the replies to it.
A lot of very simple rules apply and no one has yet mentioned any of them.
I agree with you and have no doubt you are sincere. That being said, a lot of what has emasculated men is well-intentioned (and some bad intentioned) advice from women regarding what women want.
So the advice that many women (not all women) give is cliched and hackneyed, more 'what they think women want,' as opposed to 'what women really respond sexually to.'
The two are not always consistent, and in fact often not aligned well at all. A lot of well meaning women give advice consistent with the former mandate, and not the latter mandate.
