I'm too tired to read the entire article (and I hate the font! 
) but I believe I did get the gist of it. Along the same lines, I recently finished Dr. Frank Tallis' Love Sick - Love as a Mental Illness. VERY interesting!

To quote from the article: “It’s popular among male academics to say that females preferred smarter guys,” Dr. Arnold said. “Such genes will be quickly selected in males because new beneficial mutations will be quickly apparent."
Pure poppycock in my experience, pure poppycock. Yes they like intelligence, but they don'yt go to bed with it (unless, maybe, they are looking to procreate?).
Of course the rest of the article makes a lot of sense to me. I've always advocated that there are substantial, non-culturally induced differences between men and women.

That is a typo. It is all in the jeans, not genes... 
Remember, email is an inefficient communications forum. You may not read things the way it was intended. Give people the benefit of the doubt before firing back... Especially if it is ME...!
