dms - "Why, Brit, are there any other kind of women,in this world except "powerful" one? What do you think of their partners?"

- meaning that their partners would be thought of as wusses or "hen-pecked"? Lol! Hmm.. maybe but there are exceptions to the general rule.

Answers to thread title:-

a) my colleague says his wife can beat anyone to a pulp, so there we have it. Security and protection. ;0)
b) sugar momma so he can be a bum. (Not you, of course, britexpat)
c) dominatrix for the kinky (weird) ones; and
d) gypsy is right for the rest /the decent guys generally.
