I think we subconsciously evaluate most of our relationships through the lens of previous relationships. We compare our first boss to our fathers and mothers and teachers, previous authority figures. We compare our co-workers to our friends, our roommates or classmates or the childhood friends we kept in touch with. And clearly, these men in "traditional" marriages are evaluating their women co-workers in terms of their primary female relationship, which doesn't work out well for equality. As the article points out, much of this is unconscious, even opposite of what they think they're doing. That really makes me wonder about my professional and personal relationships. While I'm fortunate to have been exposed to a wide variety of people of both genders in professional and social circles, I wonder what unconscious biases are still affecting my professional relationships.
