The following quote is taken from Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade by Diana Gabaldon, Chapter 12, Officers and Gentlemen. Copyright (c) 2007 by Diana Gabaldon. All rights reserved.

“Minnie was charmed by Percy, whom she had not yet met; still more charmed that he should seek her help. Grey had noticed this female paradox before: women who swooned at the notion of powerful men who would protect them at the same time liked nothing better than an open admission of helplessness on the part of any male within their sphere of influence.”

Hmmm… the ‘female paradox’. I wonder, does this still apply in our time?
