Why Smart Men Marry Smart Women

Author, Christine B. Whelan

Friday, 05/18/2007

Washington, DC


Women over 30 will have it forever ingrained in their minds, thanks to Newsweek, that “A 40-year-old single woman [is] ‘more likely to be killed by a terrorist’ than to ever marry.” In her new book, Why Smart Men Marry Smart Women, Dr. Whelan explains why SWANS — what she has dubbed as Strong Women Achievers No Spouse, marry at the same rates as other women over 30. She shatters a number of myths, including: “Men don’t make passes at women who wear glasses.” But a staggering 71% of high-achieving men said a woman’s career or educational success makes her more desirable as a wife. Can you identify with the SWANS?
