It's difficult to enter this thread because I fear it will go the way of the battle of the sexes, redux. It's really already there.
I think one needs to find a mate who complements them. It's nice when your weaknesses are nulled by a mate's strengths, regardless of gender.
I will offer that I am extremely irritated by the dumb blonde routine. As I work in IT, I hate when I get the support call which starts with "I'm so bad with computers. Gosh, you are SO smart! I could never do what you do, blah, blah, blah." It's patronizing and I'm certain that act is used in other areas of the person's life. While this type of support call and act typically gets placed by a female, I have had it occur in variants with males. It is irritating regardless of who plays the part. As a tip, don't do that to your IT support people - they hate you for it.
