| Why don't men like smart women?
Posted: 3/29/2007 1:39:07 PM | I always enjoy a good conversation with a smart lady...the thing that I have found is some of them don't know how to have a stupid conversation as well. And lets face it..no matter how smart we are we all have dumb days/moments and sometimes we just want to relax and not over think things.Especially when  or 
Now being a man that is considered "booksmart" by almost everyone that knows me and "streetsmart" by most I find that if you attempt to talk or discuss things with women and do give them the their discussions (whether of a political nature or otherwise) they tend to either say that they're "not interested in you in that way" or "just want to be friends"
I personallybelieve men and women cannot be friends sex always become an issue at some point....one or the other is eventually going to want to go to the next level.This is not to say men and women cannot be friendly. But Friends? No! and if you are not interested in me in that way then what is the sense of continuing something that you know can only end in one or both of you being hurt? | |

Posted: 3/29/2007 1:43:59 PM | Maybe it's not so much the intellectual woman guys are turned off by, as it is the smoking habit? Personally...i'd take a smokeless bimbo over the smartest woman in the world if she participated in something as unintelligent as sucking harmful tobacco smoke through her body for no good reason at all.
Another thing...maybe, just maybe...many guys do not like a woman who tries to be overly intelligent? Like a woman who uses the word dichotomy to describe cerebral and "a little wild" as contradictory terms. Maybe not...I'm just being a little argumentative at the moment.
peace

Posted: 3/30/2007 8:27:15 AM | Most guys either haven't figured out how to take wonderful advantage of this _fact_ or haven't learned it yet (or, aren't smart enough to deal well with it!).
The more intelligent a woman is...
then usually...
the stronger, more creative, & more (potentially) varied... is her sexual imagination!
AND...
the more likely she'll respond reciprocally when her own physiology is played orchestrally to a mindblowing crescendo!
"Dumb bimbos" as the label's been used already here -- may have a bit of up-front visual appeal, but that rarely impresses men beyond the basic sex act... it rarely inspires men to greater heights of their own sexual development and creativity. Besides, only rarely do the "bimbos" (as described) express much of a desire to tap into a guy's mind (or unique physiological quirks) and figure out how to rock his world. After all, if the guy has an orgasm, that's all he wants or needs, right? Once sex is over, it's back to MTV or shopping. Why talk???
Highly intelligent women... you're the hottest around!
You get my vote!
FYI, if it's not clear, even while I may use them, I'm not a huge fan of false dichotomies & less-useful overgeneralizations. I use them only for illustrating a bigger point. Obviously, there aren't vast numbers of hyperintelligent AND sexual women, and there aren't vast numbers of braindead bimbos, with no one in between. The reality is usually shades of gray in between the black & the white.

Posted: 3/31/2007 4:47:12 PM | Whirled, I'm not attempting to offend here. However, do you even have a clue of what you tried to say with your jibberish?
Men (in general) may be intimidated by truly intelligent women, but not because of their sexual imagination. I would dare to guess truly intelligent women intimitate some men in the same way a "liberated woman" does. Some men have old ideals (as primitive and chauvinistic that might sound). | |

I guess smart got replaced with intelligent throughout the post. | |

Posted: 4/1/2007 6:49:28 AM | | Interesting...I just posted a similar observation on another site's blog....only I'm in Daytona Beach. I believe my observation was, "the dating pool here needs to be chlorinated...quickly." In my case, I think it's geographical preferences and history....since we're the "biker" capitol of the U.S., that's what we have . I consider myself to be "reasonably bright"; and nothing more. I could be a Rhodes Scholar, a doctor, billionaire, and the most handsome man in Florida.......but the first question I'm asked is , "No Harley?" No tattoo's ?" "What's your problem?" My solution so far has been......frequent visits back to New York.....until the bright women HERE come out to play. I truly DO miss witty repartee.............................. | |

Somthing MOST people don't know is what an orgasom is It is infact an electracle short cercite from over stimulation ok enough for sience of it except to say we are all wet cell batterys and all batterys can be over excited . Personaly I enjoy eversomuch smart women becouse they understand what to do when to do it and how to do it .

Posted: 4/1/2007 9:06:44 AM | | didn't they teach english at the orphanage? even though i don't particularly agree with the original poster, i suspect that you both probably travel in the same circles. perhaps that is why she came up with this thread in the first place. | |

Posted: 4/1/2007 9:18:21 AM | Nateofspades, I'm not attempting to offend here. But if you were one of the guys who I was talking about, then you're likely to have found my post to be "jibberish."
As for "some men having old ideals... well..." I agree men like that are out there.
The flip side of that is that "some men have evolved a bit more."
Have a great day... | |

Posted: 4/1/2007 7:32:55 PM | You know, I have dated many intelligent ladies before. I have found that the ones that claim they cannot find/keep a man because of a hatred of female intelligence...often they have character flaws that have nothing to do with intelligence.
Not saying that this is the case for you...just stating that this is a pattern that I have seen over time.
I have no problem getting into a political discussion. I loved heated debates. I have no problem discussing philosophy and religion. The arts, music, architecture...no problem!
Where my problem lies is when I open a door for a lady and she takes offense...where I pay for a meal and a woman claims that I have stepped all over her civil liberties...where my disagreement of her ideas is a form of "male oppression" or some other BS.
I have come to have a certain policy...if a woman says she is crazy...I believe her! If a woman says tells me that she is smart and cannot keep a man because of her intelligence...I avoid her just like I do the self-labeled crazy woman.
Why can people just be who they are?
There is a saying that I teach in some of my classes...the first time something happens is just luck, the second time is mere coincidence, but the third time is a pattern and once you learn a pattern then you can predict, promote, thwart, and control what happens in the future.
I'm not saying...I am just saying. | |

Posted: 6/13/2007 3:47:03 AM | Well I appreciate you painting most of us with the same brush. To say that men don't like smart women is pretty much a statement that gives you an excuse why you are not finding what you are looking for. Just put out there what you are looking for and let the process work. Just like the saying goes, " Be carefule debating a point with an idiot...people may not know the difference." It's interesteing that you would pose this question to the same guys that you are asking the negative question about. What type of answer did you expect? Maybe the reason :those guys" go for the so-called Barbie types is because they would never think to post a forum on here asking that question. You seem like you might be a good catch, just have fun on a fun site and you might just find what you are looking for. Anytime you might want to debate any topic or just have a great time.....well you know how this works.
