You see the clever girl looks for a clever boy
To another extent than the clever boy
Will ever look for a mate
Who goes to round-table debates
And runs a little bit late
When she does work for the state
You see the clever girls look for a clever boys
And then the clever boys seem to have a different choice
They want a good-looking chick
That likes to blow them away
Someone who laughs at all the
Funny little things they say
I have a friend who's in this Mensa club
He has no trouble to admit
He wants a woman with ambitions
That go as far as raising kids
We have our fair share of clever boys and girls here at WP, so what do you think? Is it really the case that "Clever Girls Like Clever Boys Much More Than Clever Boys Like Clever Girls"?
Are all intelligent men uninterested at best and intimidated at worst? Would you prefer (if you had your pick of the crop) to go for the less cerebral, non-bookish, conventionally feminine but slightly dithering every-girl.
It sounds terribly chauvinist, but I honestly believe most men, being honest, desire a woman who simply looks good, has traditionally female interests and who is more likely to stay home and raise the children.
Well I am certainly not a representative of the male race, however I do think a lot of guys, as you said, want a conventional feminine girl to stay home and raise kids with. After all, psychology states that males typically view love in the sense of sex, or the sexual appeal of a female for the purpose of replication.
Now, I'm not saying men are a bunch of horny cavemen with the word "sex" running through their mind all the time. We're just wired in to be attracted to physically attractive females. I digress, so back to the main subject of conversation.
Yes, I certainly do believe that men can be intimidated by an intelligent female, because it the assumed role of the man to be "strong and in control" of everything.
However, unlike most guys, I find intelligence attractive. If I could get a physically attractive girl who was a Christian and was also very intelligent, I'd be set. Besides, I make allusions to things that most people scratch their heads and say "Huh?". So an intellectual equal is ideal, it's every sexy, not only can you be sexually attracted, you can also be very flirtatious in an intelligent, playful way. I like a like a little harmless mischief as much as I like intelligence
