The Clooney Effect: Men Increasingly Seeking Out More Independent, Self-Reliant, Educated Women


For millennia, a woman's value in a marriage was largely limited to birthing children and caring for a household. That's changed now, and men's desires have changed accordingly. Men want their wives—partners, really—to be much more independent, with lives and careers outside of the home.

As the Clooney Effect's name suggests, it's George who gained from marrying the beautiful, smart, independent Amal. One commenter at Time summed it up nicely after the couple made their first post-marriage appearance at this year's Golden Globes, "We always thought that she was the woman who finally snared George Clooney, but it’s the other way around. And we’re all better off for it." But, according to Fisher's findings, many men aren't just looking for their equals but perhaps their superiors. The vast majority—87 percent—said they would date a woman who makes more money, is more intellectual, and is better educated than they are.

Women, for their part, seem to be looking for their equals: 86 percent want a partner who is as intelligent as they are. Additionally, 55 percent aren't willing to support their partner financially, and 61 percent claim not being as intelligent as them is an automatic deal-killer, according to the Match.com findings. http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2015/02/the-clooney-effect/386018/?utm_source=SFTwitter

Sorry, intelligent, attractive women aren't attracted to dummies.

2. I'm sorry but this is actually the SomethingFishy effect.

I was doing this when George was still starring in Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes 2.

Only you can knock "beauty" down the list. Smart, independent, happy, funny, and if she happens to be cute all the better.

This Dummy is on a first name basis with George Clooney.

What would a real 'Smart, independent woman' (As opposed to some feminazi witch with a liberal arts degree and delusions of importance) want to do with any of those losers?

Why would a smart, independent woman want someone like them. Me, OTOH, I want to be taken care of in the style to which I've become accustomed! Where the hell is that damn house boy?

Which reminds me, Atman sure has been quiet lately.

George Clooney Amal Alamuddin Divorce: Marriage Ending Soon? Successful Lawyer Hates Actor's Friends And Will Not Be A Trophy Wife?

George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin divorce rumors are getting worse by the day.

New reports claim that George's new bride is not being discreet with how she feels about her husband's friends.  According to OK! Magazine, and as reported by Celeb Dirty Laundry, Amal is not happy at how George prepared to celebrate her birthday.

"George Clooney's idea of a romantic birthday celebration for his new bride: wine, candlelight, soft music - and Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber! After George invited his longtime besties to dinner to celebrate his wife Amal's 37th on February 8th, she put the kibosh on hanging out with them so often," the report said.

That divorce is sure to happen now. The DUmmies have put their curse on it.

Hmmm, checking IMDB finds there was no Attack of the Killer Tomatoes 2 ever made. Therefore the DUmbass couldn't be doing what he claims and is lying.

And at least 99.9999999999% of women in the Dimratic party.  (I would have said 100%, but there may be ONE somewhere that would skew the results.)

Now get this. BLACK woman and a WHITE man. Any bets on hate crime charges?

Only way this bitch could be more untouchable is if she was also a lesbian and muzzie.
