Women Admire Men and So Do Men
A Columbia University study financed by the Brewers Foundation finds both sexes admire the opposite and same sex in varying ways. It shows 65 percent of women admire men more than women, while 35 percent of men admire women most. Men value masculinity and ambition, others favor kindness and understanding. The study notes education level influences views, with college-educated women liking men more and older women favoring housewives. Moderation opinions vary by age and gender.
