It seems to me that people in general are intimidated by the same types of things. Money if they try and make you feel insignificant. Beauty can be intimidating, let's face it no one wants to be rejected. But when people talk about men being intimidated by women that are successful then I believe that's only if they then raise the standard of success that a man must meet to be considered "desirable". Think about it, an attractive woman doesn't have to have a dollar to be with a successful man. But even an average looking successful woman will raise the requirements of the man to need to be successful and good looking. I flew one time and in the magazine slot in the seat was a magazine for "Successful Single Women" searching for mates. Every single profile said "I'm looking for a successful single male", not looking for a honest, faithful, loving guy! All of a sudden it wasn't about just love; these women are saying "I earned this money, and I'm not just sharing MY money with anyone. But I'm not intimidated by successful women if they are open minded and cool. A relationship boils down to both individuals respecting one another, committing themselves emotionally, and sharing the responsibilities of life. Let's face it though relationships are tough as hell which is why half the marriages in the world don't work out. Which is why were all here!

So, could this be my problem?

No, I don't think this is a real problem. I would guess that any man intimidated by a woman's 'credentials' (or vice versa) is likely to be intimidated by a large range of things having nothing to do intrinsically with being a woman.
What might I find intimidating?
1. Too much 'insider' lingo and focus
2. Patterns of interaction in which people generally are put down. Maybe this would simply be a turn-off, rather than intimidating.
3. Oddly enough, I find the absence of a picture 'intimidating.' I plague myself with the anticipatory question: 'But what if she turns out to be ugly?'
4. Debilitating and long-term disease. I've been there and was so flattened by it that I don't want choicefully to get into that again. I'm happy to be friends with someone in a long-term difficult situation, but would be intimidated by the prospect of a romantic relationship. This is a personal reality for me, and may not be pertinent to most other men.
I do think that many men are quite reactive to how attractive a woman's picture is. Is this true for women, too? From the comments posted here on CS by women, I would guess that it is.
