Stepford?

[layla0302]

Victoria: I know it sounds lame, but I actually think that Ted might be The One. That's pretty hard to walk away from.[FONT=굴림]

[/FONT]Robin: Well, I don't know. I'd feel a little Stepford turning down a huge opportunity to chase some guy I'd only known two months.[FONT=굴림]


Why does Robin say "a little Stepford"? What does that mean?
Also, I have learned that after the verb 'feel' there should be an adjective, but there is a noun. Could explain that please?

The Stepford Wives - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The term "Stepford wife", which is often used in popular culture, stemmed from the novel, and is usually a reference to a submissive and docile housewife.

She would feel as if she was acting like a Stepford wife, or as if she had turned into a Stepford wife. It's a verbal shorthand.
