Um, male politicians and CEOs aren't necessarily lookers either. Joe Lieberman? Henry Waxman? Dick Cheney?

No. It's an indication that you feel emasculated by a powerful woman. Did you have a bad Mommy?

Women don't handle testosterone that well. They try to walk like they have b*lls, which trumps any femininity they possess.

is it because you link 'feminity' with 'being meek'?
