No, there are successful gay people, unless you go to the woman who gave birth to them... then I suppose.

I think so. Success can get to your head and it's always good to have some a good strong woman level you out. Although the opposite can happen and you have crazy lady

it sure is true - the reason he is successful is there is either a woman kicking his butt or he has a woman back home and he works extra hard so he doesn't have to go back and spend any time with her:wink:

Not really, you could take the DNA out of an egg and put it into another, artificially, and it'd still work.

Could be true, there's always woman behind a succesful man. But, that doesn't mean the man has become succesful because of this woman.

I would say that behind every successful man there is many people. Not specificly one woman, or one of anything. What successful man have you met that has nobody?

It's pretty true, without us many men wouldn't be able to find their heads if they weren't screwed on. Women do a lot more than males like to realise.

This implies that either:

Women are the key to men being successful

or

Women only marry successful men

I feel successful, but the woman next to me (not behind) is also successful. It's an anachronistic statement when women weren't given equal status.

*looks at the current fights in Congress about women's rights*

Oh wait....

Well, I have no woman. I am not successful. Although, If I had a woman. I'd have a reason to get up every morning to make some money. But, I don't care about myself enough I guess. Sayings true for me.

Depends how you define success, a lot of business men do however alot of academics end up being single because they're so obsessed.
