smart people not attractive?

are people put off by smart (i.e. intelligent) people when choosing marriage partners? do people try to choose people on the same intellectual level.

Re: smart people not attractive?

I’d like the guy to be on the same level of intellectuality because that way we can communicate rather than one of us being big headed than the other. I don’t think that made sense but it made sense in my head and I had so many more reasons an they all just left my brain :bummer: ¬¬

Re: smart people not attractive?

men needs to be a lil more smarter than women when choosing as marriage partners

woman being smarter than man in marriage...creates problems after..

Re: smart people not attractive?

^ LOL. why is that? what if the wife is not book-smart but still has opinions?

Thats true if woman is smarter then her husband it creates a lot of problem.

smarter people respect others and their opinion, if those are rational.

Re: smart people not attractive?

Once I read some where that children inherit intelligence from Mother’s side. :smiley:

So best trick is to marry an intelligent girl and than act all dumb in front of her, hopefully soon she’ll adopt :wink:

:sheyn:

Re: smart people not attractive?

I'm smarter than the average person... (sorry, not stroking my ego, I have a very high IQ), and I find intellectualism to be a bigger turn on than physical appearance. Wit and humor are incredibly sexy :D

Re: smart people not attractive?

i don't think being smart is a turn-off, unless the person is arrogant about being so smart.... then thats a huge negative. i could never have married someone who didn't "get" me and my sense of humor and vice versa. how can you marry someone, no matter how beautiful, if you can't even have a conversation with them? thats got to be incredibly frustrating.

man you are asking for it.. haha

Re: smart people not attractive?

well im all with freedom of opinion... but if a girl is smarter than a guy.. chances are girl will not be accepted by the guy's parents for some reason.. whereas, when a guy is smarter than girl.. it is looked as the guy will be able to run home in a good way and stuff like that.. dont know if its making sense here though.. but the bottom line here is .. two smart people dont make a nice couple.. one has got to be a little dumb than the other for successful marriage.

You mean one has to have more CONTROL over the other. Which is BS. Throw away these stereotypes and you'll see that people (when given the chance), are often attracted to those like themselves.

im smart and funny :mudhosh:

Re: smart people not attractive?

Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair.

Re: smart people not attractive?

And dopesters have more calcium in their bones.

Wow than im better of not getting married huh??

Re: smart people not attractive?

No i rather have him be smarter then me.. Knowing me if he was less educated or dumb like me .. hell no iam not marry tat dude :snooty:

Re: smart people not attractive?

the women handle the money$, so who's smarter?

this has nothing to do with having more control over the other. People are attracted to those who are not like them.. you get attracted to someone when find something in the person that u dont have in your personality.. i.e: shy people wont be attracted to shy ppl.. , good boys are often attracted to bad girls , bad boys attracted to good girls.. so on and so forth.. juz ma 2centz, dun take it to the heart.

Re: smart people not attractive?

intellectual-very sexy...male or female...but for matrimonial purposes I think it's crucial for both to be on the same page-filters out any potential insecurity issues that can be very problematic
