Quote# 68757

This is NOT how heterosexuals mate. Women are hypergamous, which means they seek men of higher power and status. Nurses marry doctors.

On a date, a man reveals himself and his vision of life. She decides if she's interested in him or not. If she is, she affirms him by her acceptance and encouragement. In marriage, she demonstrates her love by trusting him to take care of her interests.

He also affirms her by seeking her acceptance. Yes, he also wants her to be capable and successful. But his recognition and nurturing come later.

All successful organizations are hierarchical. The heterosexual family is male dominated. If you wanted to destroy it, you promote equality. Our culture is doing this.

1. The dictionary definition of hypergamy describes it as a practice among Hindu women where they will marry into a caste AT LEAST as high as their own.
1.1 Therefore if marriage was hypergamous it would allow for gender equity in a marriage provided that the groom was from at least the same caste as his fiancée.

2. The US is not a caste-based society, much less a Hindu-inspired caste-based society so the entire argument is utter nonsense.

Ah, Henry Makow.

He's not a fundie, but he is a fucktard.

No, nurses marry doctors because they're the most easily datable.

And that just because someone is hypergamous doesn't mean they can't be equal.

So, you would NOT choose the one earning the most? Good to know.

When I chose my husband, he was merely a lowest grade engineer, still in our "gymnasium" level. Somewhere between your high school and college. I had higher grades than him in almost all subjects. Probably would have had in Spanish as well, If I had taken that class. I know more Spanish now than he does, even tough I have never taken a course in it.

He was nice and seemed kind, and had nice firm legs. That was what started it.
My parents have both taken college degrees, as have my three siblings. His parents have not. What were you saying?

I don't think "love" has anything to do with this vision of the world.

Following back to Makow's own site (the catchily-titled savethemales.ca) he is a total conspiracy nut, articles such as "Is the New World Order Jewish?" abound. No clue though as to the big question, just what subject is Dr Makow's PhD in?

People always do that, if he is a PhD in, say maths, then his opinions on marriage have no more weight than anyone else's.

I see someone dreaming of the "good old days" when women were still 2nd class citizens who were dominated by males and were the ones who had to sacrifice their job (if they had one) to support their husbands career (and care for the household and children) and where mothers would just send their daughters to university in order to become acquainted to a "nice doctor" who they could marry).

No.

When was the last time you were on a date?

Uh, no, because they're equal partners in the relationship.

And no. No, no, no, no, no, fucking WRONG!

The heterosexual family is male dominated.

Only in some remote parts of New Jersey.

...so that is why you got a PhD! It doesn't appear to be working for you though judging by this.

if my wife started acting like the pandering servile sex-sack you're suggesting, I would file for the divorce myself.

uh, no

Just as individuals vary, so do the dynamics of good working relationships. Some families function best with a dominant male but it is an error to assume all families must conform to one of many workable options.

Here's the Wikipedia on this asshole, another one of our Canadian fundies.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Makow
Although he was born in Switzerland.

Then again it claims that he invented the game Scruples? So who the hell knows.

And he shipped in a mailorder bride, who divorced him.
