The Female Gaze

I suspect if you conducted a similar experiment with men the results wouldn't change. Men can rate on appearance and Suzy the secretary or Suzy the Surgeon wouldn't change that.

I suspect they would change less, and in the opposite direction.

Perhaps, I'm not so sure it would change in the opposite direction though.
Men seem much less concerned about those things. When someone in my social circle meets a new potential BF/GF the women are always the ones asking "what does he do for a living?".
And the guys aren't as "threatened" by successful women as some would have you believe is the norm. The reaction is usually, "cool, she's got her own money."
