Actions are what matter. Woman may like to think they are attracted to different things than they actually are. And the same may be true for men. We rationalize what we feel and experience, possibly distorting it. So while we may all be trying to answer these questions honestly, we may be putting out wrong information.
Doesn't mean Shadix is right. But I don't buy into the "All woman here said [...] so therefore [...]"-line.
