| Are women intimidated by men that are more intelligent then them Posted: 1/27/2005 9:03:18 AM | Please read properly before commenting on another persons post. Also if you're going to call someone ignorant, please spell it properly. Being the intelligent person you are, you will be aware that it is medical fact that when a man becomes aroused blood from other parts of his body are used to provide enough blood for an erection, this was what the posts made reference to. | |

| Are women intimidated by men that are more intelligent then them Posted: 1/27/2005 9:11:54 AM | It is good thing that I don't get caught in details that detract from the real subject because I felt threatened by their response and who said that I was referring to you anyway.
On differant direction, maybe the problem is mine. In that I feel the need to challenge the women that I am with because I feel that I can only be with somebody that I consider my equal. To many of you that may sound wrong, but to deny how I truly feel would be lying to myself.
The only thing that I look for in any sexual encounter is a connection, because that is where passion and true arousal stems from, you can't get that from purely physical attributes. I have been known to over look any percieved physical problem simply because I was attracted to who they were. | |

Eccentric - noone could possibly blame you for wanting someone to be your equal within a relationship, but to be somebody's equal you dont have to be as intelligent as them, people also wont blame you for the admirable quality of being attracted to someones soul rather than body. There are many different types of intelligence, and noone's mind works in the same way, there are many extremely intelligent people who post on these forums, though they may not share your interests or views.
Anyway, goodnight all, im going home to take an IQ test and read up on my Homer so i can wow you all tomorrow! | |

Challenging the woman - hmmm ... where to go with this? I think there needs to be a sense of when and where to be approriate. If not, then it runs the risk of turning a person off. When one of the two starts spouting off details ad nauseum about something and the other simply isn't interested, it's a turn-off. This applies to both men and women.
These Forums are great in the sense that the people in the discussion thread are already interested in the discussion. So what is appropriate here, may not be appropriate in a real-life physical encounter.
Need more details .... How quickly do you challange them? What topics do you bring up? Do you set the pace of the conversation? Do you bait them into a discussion about something you know a great deal about and then shoot down their arguments? Do you wait for her to bring up a topic and discuss it?

I remember hearing some years back that the most important factor in deciding whether two people form a relationship is proximity. I wonder if this will begin to change with the internet and sites like these. I suspect not in the grand scheme of things, but certainly in some cases.
Other important factors were mutual physical attraction, similar interests and intelligence.
Intelligence is a difficult one to quantify precisely, but in a general sense it applies.
I believe that the notion of being intimidated by your partner's intelligence is rooted in self-confidence more than anything else.
Nice post. I really did like it. Because its true, from a certain frame of mind.
Im not here to pursuade anyone to my way of thinking. Because the simple truth is, providing I dont blow up buildings or scar or take lives, my way of thinking doesnt change yours. Correct?
Your correct in the fact that the internet/online dating has changed the lives of so many people. Yet....how come? Can you not get to know me over a phone? Do the influctions in my face or my physical demeanor change me that much? If so, couldnt I turn on a cam, so that you could see them as well? You see, if you go about it in a heartfelt, sincere manor. Nothing has changed. Your talking. Your seeing the other person move and breathe... and your growing. Just like in a squishy world situation, there exists the possibility of treachery, and facades... but seriously... whats different? The lack of sex? The lack of physical contact? If we were all Saxons that would be an issue.
Perhaps I went off on a rabbit trail... my bad... lol | |

| Are women intimidated by men that are more intelligent then them Posted: 1/27/2005 9:41:41 AM | I just want to say that I have yet to attack anybody during this posting yet I have been consistantly bombarded for stating simply what I believe. All I asked was that people stop referring to men as being controlled by their d@@k. I was looking for honest feedback, I am not trying to prove anything.
Say goodnight Grace Goodnight Grace | |

I think that the physical aspects of a "squishy world" are very significant when seeing a member of the opposite sex. We have a debate here, and get a glimpse of the personalities of those involved. But not the whole enchilada. Things like smelling the perfume she is wearing, the way she flicks her hair when it falls across her nose, her mannerisms ... these are all absent in this medium. As such, it is an incomplete encounter. It may be enough to form a basis of a relationship. But through reading some of the posts here, the critical step seems to be when you meet the individual in person.
In terms of changing another's way of thinking ... that would take a lot more than a few chats here.

| Are women intimidated by men that are more intelligent then them Posted: 1/27/2005 9:50:01 AM | | I like a guy with book smarts. I didn't go to college but I have a lot of life smarts so they both balance each other well. Everyone is smarter than everyone else is one thing or another in life...how else would people always be learning? | |
