Ideas for a study on honour - Do successful women pose a threat to men's honour? Do men choose successful women as romantic partners?

Hyp: Do successful women (those with higher salaries and more prestigious positions) potentially pose a threat to men's honour?


Does this affect men's (endorsing high vs. low honour norms) preferences for choosing these women as potential romantic partners (girlfriends or wifes - marriage)?

Manipulation of Honor Threat: 
Break men's honour (by a scenarios or writing tasks) and see whether they affirm their honour by 
a) choosing more feminine/masculine women as potential mates  (ask what kind of women do you prefer for a girlfriend?), 
b) choosing masculine self-presentations (meat vs. veggies OR beer vs. wine), 

basically do they confirm more to the society's understanding for femininity and masculinity. 

Give the Ps the honour scales 2 weeks prior to the lab. Call hetero dating couples to lab. Break  Using a male confederate, attack the male P's masculinity/honour by complementing his gf or subtly flirt with her near him (what a nice dress/it's good that beautiful girls like you come into the lab, etc.) and measure their stress/frustration levels by self-report questionnaire or by physiological measurements
