oaks Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Well, according to scientists who've studied this sort of thing, "it has been proven that people with higher cognitive abilities have lower birthrates"... in plain English, stupid people like to screw more than smart people. Nah. Smart people screw plenty, but are smart enough to use birth control. 4
phineas Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Nah. Smart people screw plenty, but are smart enough to use birth control. HA! 10 chara
irin Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 there are countless articles written about mens preference to women with low IQ but high aesthetically. ive also heard from many men in real life, say that in fact a girls high level of intelligence is problematic to them. a large number of them want a dumb bimbo.
fortyninethousand322 Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I'm more interested in intellectual intimacy than physical intimacy. So for me, intelligence is the most important trait in a partner.
kaylan Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Men and women will both use hot stupid people for casual fun(seen it), but not for relationships. I may have sex and hook up with hot yet not so smart girls, but I need an intellectual smart ass of a girlfriend to commit to.
Bob_Funk Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 One woman she works with is very overweight and lives in squalor (never cleans, bugs everywhere), and she has a BF and several on the side. These man all have normal IQ’s. Gee, what a surprise.

I feel like hanging out and having an intellectual debate with a woman would be more worthwhile than having sex. Is that strange?
ThaWholigan Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I feel like hanging out and having an intellectual debate with a woman would be more worthwhile than having sex. Is that strange? Not really strange, but you're probably asexual.
fortyninethousand322 Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Not really strange, but you're probably asexual. Isn't being asexual more about not being attracted to women? I find women attractive, I'm just not all that interested in having sex with them.
dasein Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Does anyone really want to date anyone that can state their IQ? Even smart people I know aren't that dorky or arrogant. This girl that is so called "intellectually disabled" may be culturally refined or artistic or musical. There is more to a person than pretending to be the smartest person in the world....at least I hope so. Two whole generations of people have been told they are God's special little genius with cooked IQ test "numbers" to back it up. Pretty much anyone who refers to their intelligence as a number is one of these IME. They are usually quite stupid. To the topic, no neither I nor any of my friends would line up to date such a person.

Either that, or you just have a very low sex drive. I don't know - anyone who isn't interested in sex to me is asexual . Wrong terminology - could be.....

I've known many "geniuses" over the yrs that have put themselves in situations where by sheer luck they didn't wind up Darwin award candidates.
carhill Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 During child-bearing years, I wouldn't have dated a lady with Down's simply because of the high risk of the syndrome being passed on to offspring. Now, with that era behind, equal opportunity, with the main criteria at my age, relevant to the topic, being compatible health and life goals. I was a caregiver for eight of the last twelve years and don't wish to be one again for some time.
Disillusioned Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Nah. Smart people screw plenty, but are smart enough to use birth control. I think what EB means is that very horny rocket scientists exist, but they're not that common.
utterer of lies Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I feel like hanging out and having an intellectual debate with a woman would be more worthwhile than having sex. Is that strange? Yes. Obviously, you should have sex first, then an intellectually fulfilling debate, and then some more sex. 1
Els Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Either that, or you just have a very low sex drive. I don't know - anyone who isn't interested in sex to me is asexual . Wrong terminology - could be..... Well, sex drive is a spectrum, rather than black or white. Some people just have lower ones than others - I'd reserve 'asexuality' for people who are genuinely never interested in any sort of sex, with anyone.
zengirl Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Yes. Obviously, you should have sex first, then an intellectually fulfilling debate, and then some more sex. I've had intellectually fulfilling debates DURING sex. It's pretty hot, tbh. I don't see why sex and intellect are so often disengaged. To me, the two work very well together, though to each their own! 2
Blastoplast Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 Woman that are physically attractive but have pea brains I keep my distance from. If you want a roll in the hay, great -- but you won't be getting my number or anything more than a friendly hug and a nod the next time we meet.
kaylan Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I feel like hanging out and having an intellectual debate with a woman would be more worthwhile than having sex. Is that strange? Both are worthwhile in my book. The sex more so lol And sex with a woman I enjoy intellectual debates with would be even much more worthwhile.

Haha, well, I rather use my intellect for pleasure-maximization than getting distracted with a debate - there's a time for everything. But maybe you're just better at multitasking...
FitChick Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 They made a movie on this very subject -- Light in the Piazza.

dasein Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I don't care for conversations with people whose backs are turned to me. They can't be understood through a ball gag anyhow.
dbzeng Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 I was discussing this with someone and we both think that men wouldn't care if a girl had for example Dawn's Syndrome - but in a way that you couldn't see it and she was also very hot (think 9 or 10). We think that there would be a line of men waiting to date her. I am not sure what your point is? If the situation was reversed would there would be a line of women to date him?
