I think you have summed up the article, and the problem. You say it better than I do. More higher educated women are demanding men more educated than they are,but there are fewer males who are better educated than females, not more.
Take a stroll through college engineering, mathematics, software or MBA classes (the job creating fields) and you'll find the exact opposite is true. Doctorates in sociology or nuanced psychology look great on the living room wall, but they don't put create thousand employee companies. Female (and male) lawyers cost jobs, they don't create them.
Longevity in school does not equal higher IQ. If it did, "higher educated" women should question the fruits of their endurance in a desk. After all, every single Fortune 500 company was started by a man. Entrepreneurial success rates have little correlation to the highest "education" level. It takes street smarts, guts, luck, ingeniuity, establishing connections, and unplanned risk management to succeed, none of which can be taught in the classroom. Many of today's most successful and brilliant people, Gates, Dell, etc., dropped out of college, and are a product of adapting, surviving, innovating in the trenches; not years of term papers and brown nosing elitist professors.
Work is highly stressful for alot of men. Who wants to come home to a second job battling it out with a high stress type A self proclaimed "higher educated" woman? Men want to come home to a sexy, younger, supportive woman who appreciates him for who he is, has her own interests, and doesn't seek out needy, imaginary crisis and conflicts.
