Oh, there's all kinds. When the woman starts making, or the wife in the relationship starts making more money than the man, the guy is three times more likely to be on erectile dysfunction drugs. Really? And a lot of that is his own issue, his own weird sense of masculinity, and his own insecurity.

But again, those 70% of divorce filings filed by women, we never want to have an honest conversation about this, right? Because anything that in any way might portray one sex as not being our vision of how the sex is portrayed in media means you're anti-women. I don't think that's true at all.

70% of those divorce filings, and the number one source of that divorce filing, there's really three things. He has an emotional breakdown, he loses his business, or he declares bankruptcy. That's the biggest cause for women wanting to file for a divorce. When he's no longer a viable provider. Wow. People think it's values or infidelity. It's not. It's almost always related to money. Wow.

Money creates... Kind of opportunistic infection. It's sort of like there's just more likely and most anger, most households coming apart. Financial stress usually is creating the context of anger.

But the data shows it's not as easy. Guys can find and partner with... Guys have no trouble being attracted to a woman who is not financially secure. Now, some men are like that. I'm making huge reductive generalizations here, but there's some data around this.

Um, women, if you're on Tinder and you're a guy who's, um, making $80,000 in his five, nine, uh, um, I'm sorry, making $130,000 and you're five, nine years attractive to a woman is a guy who's six to making 80,000. So it's about $10,000 per inch. So everyone talks about height, your ability to signal women are attracted. Generally speaking, the research shows to men based on three reasons.

The third is kindness. They don't want someone who's going to be a good person. They're impressed by men who are good to their parents and kind and go out of their way to help people and there's no reciprocal expectation. The second is intelligence. Because the smarter you are, the more likely you are to make good decisions and protect your family's offspring.

And by the way, the fastest way to communicate intelligence is humor. I've always said if you can make a woman laugh, you can kiss her. Wow. And then the most important thing, though, to women, and people don't like to admit this, is the man's ability to signal future resources.

It's not even he has to be rich now, but he has to have his act together such that he looks like he will be a decent provider. And the number of people, the number of men we're producing that qualify in this category is shrinking as women get taller. It's the high heels effect. 50% of women say they won't date a man shorter than them. I bet it's 80%.

They're just not as drawn to men who are smaller than them because it's very instinctual. I need someone who will protect my young. Metaphorically, women are getting taller every day. They're killing it.

And it's amazing. We shouldn't do anything that gets in the way of that. The question is, how do we lift up men? Who wants more economically and emotionally viable men? Women.
