  1. You are right: other things being equal, strong is better than weak; smart than dumb. 
  2. I haven't defined turmoil and if I'm honest my definition would be a tad circular: ie, (to take this example) conditions where it is impossible for a woman to choose between strong and smart.
  3.  My concept is "as randomly as men", ie for subjective attraction rather than other phenotypic features, where I hope you will agree we hardly want for evidence.
