| Why don't men like smart women?
Posted: 4/23/2006 2:10:27 AM | | Hey, low blow, texaspamc! Just because people are not Democrats does not mean they voted for Bush! There are more than two political parties, and I am so tired of people thinking there are only two. I am new to my status as an independent, because the party I was with chooses not to represent ordinary people anymore.... | |

I just find 95% of the people I've encountered to be shallow, materialistic, rude, and very limited in their views.
Well from what you have posted about how perfect you are, I'm suprised you don't fit in with them. | |

Posted: 6/2/2006 11:36:14 AM | hi texas,
I am moundpuppy born and raised in florida. I looked for a long time for a smart lady in florida and had to leave there to find one from there. Isn't it funny how a lot of the people in florida are from other states or countries. Most move to florida because of the climate only to find it is not any different than other places. as far as a man liking a smart woman I prefer a woman that will keep me on the edge mentally. The bimbo is fine if I want dressing to hang on my arm and to show off but I am not that shallow. I have always been attracted to a woman with a lot upstairs to make conversations more interesting and to compete with in scrabble or chess. But I do know how you feel for I used to think that all ladies with brains only wanted a hunk to hang on thier arms. So really it is not just the ladies thinking the same way.

Which one for all of you?
Would you use it as a sword or silk? | |

Posted: 6/3/2006 1:17:36 AM | OP, sounds like you're selling a bad bill of goods. I'm not biting, but it's a post such as this that will bring out the 'jerk' in me. You claim to have dated some POF men (re: Have any of you fellow Floridians met anyone here: - "I've met quite a few men in the past year from POF"). Within this posting, it sounds like you've also found a crafty way to slyly dish them some insults. I'm sure you are 'intelligent' enough to realize that they may be viewing. I wonder what this reveals about your character?
Instead of self-promoting and venting about bad dating decisions, I'd suggest that you require a few extra e-mail exchanges. This will help filter out those with whom share a lack of intellectual compatibility. Ever tried it? It works.
No charge for the advice. | |

Posted: 6/4/2006 8:35:50 PM | Debate? ...did someone say debate?: I find that if one disagrees with a women on more than 2 issues he's out of her life by her. If one isn't a total open minded, liberal, politically correct, rich BS, he isn't worth the time or effort by her. If he cramps her values, he's gone. Intellects usually have a low moral base which is different from a high value base of character. Intellects are usually very humanistic secular thinkers absorbing the worlds thinking, which is fine, but there are to many sides to an issue at that point so no one can agree, or tries to get along for fear of having to compromise ones values ~vs~ morals and intellectual way of thinking. Intellect doesn't mean wise, it merely labels or describes someone that is studied. King Solomon the wisest king to live was very rich and fair and good for he understood the dichotomy; the division of the tribes and groups of people and nations with all their contradictory qualities which were made up of hebrews, christians, infantile, jews, pagans, gentiles, etc., and what it took to help them live in peace under his rule. Moralistically if one is on the same level and share common interests and dreams or goals as the other along life's journeys, decisions are then not based on fleeting laws, values, fads, fashion, minority issues, ideologies and philosophical whims or theories. Yes every one has a right to their opinion but it seems the intellectual minorities want to force those opinions as self-evident truths, beliefs on others if one wants to be a part of their life(style). . Maybe I am all wet here, but there is more separation, divorce, fleeting relationships going on today, with all this talk of Self-Love and Independence and a lot of very lonely people that are very self centered and self absorbed. The moral foundation starts with LOVE, which everything in the relationships has to be defined from and from that perspective and not from the worlds view of LOVE/romance/lust/ etc. For example which came first the chicken or the egg? Is it that one can not be with out the other? Or was the Virgin Mary just a folklore? That Christ was born from love, out of love, for all of mankind, by a virgin mother. Most intellects find it impossible for this to have occurred at all. Thus dismissing Christ and everything his birth and life and death and resurrection stood for. So they choose to have a different opinion and except a theory or educated guess of a big bang theory and evolution.
"Her Love Is Mine
When we were wed, I gave up all the rest,
though many were far fairer than my bride.
It does not matter. She was set aside,
and when I feel her touch and am caressed,
I know she is God's gift, and I am blessed.
So why would men have cast her to the side?
It does not matter. God lets her abide
in my embrace, and me betwixt her breasts.
She is my love, though she was not as fair
when I passed by the flesh of ninety-nine
more beautiful than hers. I do not care.
Lust cannot drink enough of beauty's wine,
nor can my lust the truth in love declare:
Far better than her flesh, her love is mine.
If I Will Love, Not Covet You
What foolish, hurtful lusts have driven me!
I did not know lust, but the law has said,
"Thou shalt not covet." I have coveted
to take from you what should be given me
through Christ, if I will let Him live in me;
thus, I have died as Christ has died, and dead
am raised up unto life in Him instead.
Forgive me as He has forgiven me.
If I will love, not covet you, and give
you what I rather would have taken of
your spirit, soul, and body, God forbid
I set desire for you up above
His love for you, whom Christ died to forgive.
If not for Christ, I would not know of love.

Yes every one has a right to their opinion but it seems the intellectual minorities want to force those opinions as self-evident truths, beliefs - on others if one wants to be a part of their life(style). Maybe I am all wet here, but there is more separation, divorce, fleeting relationships going on today, with all this talk ideology of Self-Love (I am my own universe and self centered, arrogant, obnoxious, un-forgiving), Independence (I don't need you I just want a toy for a while) and I am comfortable in my own skin (I am okay and you are not). Seems there's a lot of very lonely people that are very self centered and self absorbed, which is all humanistic and secular.

So they choose to have a different opinion and even except a theory or educated guess of a big bang theory and evolution. Dismissing the moral to the story of Love and the gift and sacrifice that came from LOVE. Okay if the intellect is a christian then the perspective is in the correct place, then just the person is caught up looking for all the wrong (worldly) things for all the right reasons.
Just a thought or two...hehehehh.... | |

Posted: 6/10/2006 8:06:43 PM | Thank you. That preetymuch tells it straight up! Ever notice how we all (*humans, that is) Can talk so freely and words come oh so quickly? The action is actually the most difficult aspect that seems to really reveal our intelligence! Oh I know how far short I fall... But inside my own head, I am often quite amazed and amused!!Oh well Brains & brawn always seemed so cool in storybook form. 
Carry on! | |

It is really a sad arena when we get into the rut of thinking there are only 2 parties!!!
We must transcend all the obvious and the hype to maintain our unique abilities to dance to our own inner muse> | |

Posted: 6/10/2006 8:15:49 PM | | Actually, maybe you were taking a risk at calling out stuff as you see them? Good call.I feekl you & I do so agree. How else did we become so rude?? I say look at the lowest example of intelligent life on earth: the television. The Vision I would dare to tell would be so far from most of the waste matter tele so often reveals. | |

Maybe he doesn't like you seeing through his motives. And some people like to pretend everyone is stupid,And they think they can get away with anything.
This type of person is more stress than they're worth. | |

Posted: 6/17/2006 4:22:50 PM | One could ask a similar question of women.
The simple answer to either is the same, however. Most people aren't smart, and a lot of people who think they are smart just aren't. Men and women both lie to themselves about what they want in a mate frequently, and the people who do know what they want already have it. I will admit that I do not know what I want in a woman, or even if I desire to be in a relationship at all. In the basest form, people require either someone for genetic-matching or someone who matches their personality well. People change, though, and genetics don't.
Yeah, I ramble on occasion. | |
