Do men actually like intelligent women? (I don’t mean braggy) Why? (Page 2)

Question

I’m book smart and have always been one of the best students in the year. I’m really not trying to brag- just paining a picture of what type of smart I mean. An old man recently told me that ‘men don’t like intelligent women’. Is this true?

Highwayrobbery · Answer

I mean I guess since I'm intelligent I like to hang out with intelligent people so yes I suppose I would prefer an intelligent partner.

YHL6965 · Answer

I love intelligent women and intelligent people in general as I see them as people from whom I can learn from and exchange about various topic, especially deeper ones.

SHREYASH007 · Answer

I prefer smart girl because I don't have fear about someone else being smarter than me, there will always be a topic where I will overpower someone else.

Twenty2 · Answer

I love intelligent woman. They motivate me to be better myself. But being intelligent doesn't mean you should bring that intelligence to bed. On bed, I want a slut.

SomeGuyCalledTom · Answer

I can't speak for other men, but I find intelligence very attractive in a woman.

not_abdellah · Answer

Speaking for myself here, not sure about the majority of men. I think it would lead to some very interesting discussions, and conversations wouldn't be stale. Intelligence is a factor I look for when judging a persons attractiveness as a whole.

Waldoe · Answer

Men do not like being "Talked down to" nobody does, some intelligent women (and men) try to "show off" thats a Big turn off

iFarted · Answer

It's not a turn off, I'm indifferent on whether she's book smart or not. As long as she's not an idiot.

H8INCHES · Answer

I like intelligent women because I find them more attractive. But I will say that dumb girls I've been have been better in bed. But that's just my experience.

Anonymous · Answer

Honestly, the only men who like intelligent women are other intelligent men. But yeah, if they're really as smart as they say, they won't brag about it

Jamie05rhs · Answer

The old fart is wrong. We DO like intelligent women. (Maybe men in his generation did not.)

winterfox10 · Answer

Yes, we do. It's nice to be able to have an actual conversation with the woman you're dating,

bamesjond0069 · Answer

Men are not attracted to intelligent women. Strangely non of the so called intelligent women ever seem to figure this out, but many of the dummies do! So who really is the smart one? 🤗

Anonymous · Answer

I like a girl who is intelligent enough to know that her intelligence isn't what makes her attractive.

A girl who's 145-160 IQ is exceedingly rare and is typically a very good seductress. In a spouse, I will look for a very intelligent woman.

Ryfyle · Answer

Why would you waste your thoughts pondering the words of some old Boomer? The real question is rather you find yourself likable.

Anonymous · Answer

yeah because talking to women who aren't intelligent is a drag and it feels like my iq drops 20 or more points when i'm forced to interact with dingbats and airheads at their jobs or places or business

DWornock · Answer

It is true in a small minority of men but it is not true for a large majority of men.

bxjekzlpw · Answer

Yes intelligence is attractive so long as they dont think it makes them better than you

I love smart girls. Even a little nerdy is ok as long as she can still get dolled up.

AmeerX · Answer

I like smart and intelligent but not the rub it in your face smart 😂

David_Bayer · Answer

I don't find intelligence by itself too attractive. I'm going for good personality, sense of humor, excitement and attractiveness also helps.

Synikal · Answer

Yea but not spilling fact after facts down my throat at any given chance. Every other time is cool. I like to learn just not every single time.

Aiko_E_Lara · Answer

It's more like a boomer said that men don't like intelligent women. They're living under a rock tho.

Dinosaursandanime65 · Answer

Intelligence is a dying breed... It’s admirable more than attractive. It’s just simply a skill.

Snakeyes7 · Answer

Intelligence on its own isn’t something I usually factor in.
