Some men start out being attracted to a strong woman... but then they want to "break" them. My thoughts: Men who look to dominate and break the spirit of strong women are doing so for one reason: A man like this needs to bring a woman down *beneath* his level... so that he can not only be in control... he also doesn't have to face his own insecurities or lacking as a man. It's easier for him to try and blame everything on her instead of looking at himself and what he needs to improve.
