Question Are we scaring off our men?

Hello Sorors and Happy Belated Founder's Day!!!!

I was reading an email today and wanted to see what everyone thought of this excerpt.

"Many modern women are so independent, so self-sufficient, so committed to the cause, to the church, to careers, sororities, etc. that their entire personalities project an "I dont need a man" message. So they end up without one. Any interested man maybe attracted, but he soon discovers that this sister makes very little space for him in her life. Sometimes in our determined efforts to be strong believers and hard workers, we contemporary women downplay, denigrate or simply forget our more traditional feminine attributes. Men value women best for the ways we are different from them. Not the ways we are the same. "

Do you think that we are our own worst enemies when it comes to relationships? By stressing our independence, self-sufficiency and high levels of education, are we really pushing men away by not making room for them in our lives? Or, are the men we are dealing with simply not MAN enough to handle a strong independent woman?

What are your thoughts??

YID,
