I guess another way to put this is, What if women intimidated the man instead of the other way around?
Would marriages be better or worse if women were the physically stronger one?

Am I the only one that understands that this is what you mean? Look at my posts, they say nothing about bullying. If I was as strong as a man, I could be like Rhett Butler when he whisked Scarlet off upstairs and the next morning she had this smile on her face that told a million tales. Rhett did that because Scarlet was acting like a spoiled, selfish brat___ for years. We women can't do that because most of us can't lift a man like Rhett did Scarlet. There are times when men can be just as selfish as Scarlet was. Then they need to be taught a lesson. And this paragraph is not to be taken completely serious.
If I was as powerful as a man, no guy would be a jackass with his driving while I was in the car. None of this, "Shut up, you're trying to control me," when I call out in genuine fear for my children or my safety.
I must say that I don't want to be with a man that I can push around. I also don't want to be with a man who pushes me around. I want the man I am with to have backbone and gumption. I don't like to see anyone allow themselves to be pushed around. Assertiveness is a very attractive quality in both sexes. Who wants to see any adult being pushed around and intimidated?
There are females who bully. Statistically, they don't bully as often as men do though.
