Guys, would you become less interested in an attractive girl if you realized that she's not very intelligent?

[Miristheiss]

I voted no.
If she is a sweet person with a good heart I'd still like her.
"Intelligence" is such a subjective thing.
Define "not intelligent"?

[TheBootyChest]

I don't care about smarts, just emotions. If she can care about me, and support me on my journey of growth, then the rest is fine.

[AmandaYVR]

So far the results are comforting (not disappointing.)

[Jjpayne]

I'd say yes, simply because I'd like a girl that's smart and can think for herself. While there is the whole idea of a sexy bimbo, it's playful and cheeky to talk about but in practice I feel like we want a beautiful woman on the inside and the outside it's just the compliment.
I posted these resently on another post but I'd rather date this personOver this personBecause, I'd connect with her more in ways of smarts and interests. That's what I look for in a girl

[EmotionOfFear]

My girlfriend isn't... a ditz, or an airhead, but she's had more than her fair share of stupid moments. And is far from the quickest to grasp things. And this concerns me. I love her, of course, and she's told me she's always wanted a guy that's smarter than her, which... that feels wrong to me? I can't quite put my finger on why. It's as if she set herself into an inferior role of whatever she was looking for in a man. I was raised to surround myself with people smarter than me so that I'm always learning something.

So now it feels like she's making me into the superior role, even when I don't want to be. But a glance at our relationship, and everybody is going to say that I hold all the brain cells within in. And she's ok with that.

[CoctailKrill]

The implication being that a guy would still keep her around for sex? Some guys probably would.

For a long-term relationship, I would need someone capable of challenging me. A woman who was naive and ditzy wouldn’t be nearly as fun as someone who called me out on my shit, from whom I could learn and get a different perspective than my own, and who was intellectually curious herself.

[meggykentums]

As a bisexual girl, yes. There reaches a point of stupidity where literally everything i say has to be explained, re-explained, and then restated before we can move on to the next sentence. And then the cycle begins again.

I have met more than one girl i wanted to bang who had this level of intelligence. I just started to feel sorry for how confusing life must be for them, and being sad does not turn me on haha

[Leavesbound]

I would not likely meet a woman in person without having an idea of her intellect before hand. In fact I prefer not to know what a woman looks like until after I know if she is a nice person and can hold a conversation using more than two syllables at a time.

[TheorionMage]

For a time, I dated a developmentally-disabled young woman. Her unique perceptions and trusting nature and lack of guile I found very attractive, as opposed to the late teen angst and head games of most young women of her age.

She's the one I spoke of in another post, who'd been sexually-assaulted in her neighborhood by three rapists who'd subsequently were themselves 'serendipitously' involved in a 'fortuitous' lightning-ignited housefire~

[NamerOfStars]

Yes- but a lot depends on the details. She doesn't have to be a genius, but can she hold up her end of a conversation? Does she think and have ideas of her own? Is she curious and eager to learn? If I ask her to go with me to the museum, does she sigh and roll her eyes, or ask which one?

[Aakash_Hangargi]

Intelligence can be many types I would not not in which type she would fall and you say very so even if she has common sense and understanding of things and can learn then no probs.

Anyways I am not going to ask hetlr questions on secrets of universe

[Xitomyth]

Admittedly I do have to be somewhat physically attracted for it to start, but if she's a body without a brain, it ain't happening' mate. I want a mind, preferable close to my own in terms of ability, I don't mind different points of view, but you got to at least be able to make a real argument with evidence and logic.

[Andres77]

Her intellect is highly important to me. If I can't engage with her intellectually I'll feel as if I'm taking advantage and it would not be fun or adventurous for me

[crmoore]

It depends on how unintelligent she is. I tend to find intellectual misfortune attractive, to an extent. But there's certainly a cutoff. I suppose my appeal may be more accurately defined as an appeal in those who are intellectually unrefined, rather than unintelligent (though I'm not certain). But as long as her intelligence, or lack of, isn't hindering the conversations we have, I wouldn't be less interested in her, and in many cases it will likely make me more interested.

[ovixs90]

Depends even if she is the most beautiful girl , but she is very shallow nothing to talk to, she has no hobbies no interests, has nothing interesting to say.. you have to take every word from her.. Than yeah i wouldn't be interested the whole instagram is full of such girls..

[rondon06]

Personally yes if I was looking for a serious long term relationship. I'm not the smartest guy in the world but I ama computers science obsessed weirdo with a passion for history & politics so I want a girl who I can some have conversations with on academic subjects.

[ChiTown33]

How not very intelligent are we talking here? Like she's just more concerned with her looks not very intelligent. Or she gets lost trying to find her way home each night not very intelligent.

[geonator]

It would depend on what the results of her lack of intelligence are. If she lacks intelligence but has her hobbies and things she's good at, then no. But if she is incapable of handling situations well and doesn't really have much of anything she's passionate about, then that is unattractive

[ShortCircuit]

It would depend on how bad it was. High intelligence is certainly a plus, but as long as she can carry an interesting conversation, and is successful enough to provide for herself, then I can deal with that.

[ChrisMaster69]

Yeah very much so, I struggle with a serious relationship with people not able to hold conversations and show intelligence.

note, stupid people can have lots of qualifications, a degree does not make you intelligent

[Achilles1]

Unless she's extremely dumb, if she's attractive, and is a good girl, I couldn't care less what her university study score was, as it's irrelevant to a relationship in my opinion.
If she's not that smart, it doesn't matter to me.

[TheUniqueOne96]

Yes, because I think it would get real tiring real quick.

That being said, it's better than being an idiotic bigot, so if I had a choice between dating the two, I'd date the less intelligent one that isn't a bigot.

[Carterarder]

A pretty car isn't too good if it can't run.

Excusing the silly analogy, the girl doesn't have to be a second Einstein but she has to be somewhat intelligent of course. And even if she wasn't, attractiveness is not the only characteristic that would be redeeming. She's gotta have a nice and interesting character, gorgeous or not.

[JSmuve]

I wouldn't lose interest. I don't go in assuming an attractive girl is intelligent. I'm interested in her despite her intelligence, not because of.

[Novacane]

Yeah, especially if I am constantly asking my self "What did you just say?" That is a quick turn-off, doesn't matter who attractive they are. Ill eventually stop taking them serious

[Lone_wolf122]

I would like us both to be on the same level.. Makes everything easier

[The_Sal]

if she intentionally acts dumb because she thinks it cute then yeah it's a turn off

[HawkPerception]

Of course lol. She doesn't need any credentials or anything. She just needs to be able to converse at my level and have similar interests, views, way of communicating, etc. Not planning on having a partner with for life just because she looks pretty.

[Prettysammie]

I don’t consider myself very smart and there seems to be no shortage of guys who value my boobs more than my brains if I had any. Maybe I would attract better guys for better reasons if I had more to offer.

[invalid1]

No.
For the the same reason I won't be less interested in an intelligent girl who is not attractive.

[JamieLoves]

Being an Idiot makes a pretty girl look a lot less pretty...

[andy530]

No because I don’t believe That intelligence is static

[jamesgoldman]

Yeah, intelligence is the backbone to attraction... the lack of it would make anyone notably less attractive

[DamnSam]

Too much on hips is better than too less in the head... simply spoken

She can be a 9.0
But with bad grammar and unlogic thoughts she becomes quickly a 2.2

[genericname85]

obviously. since you can't properly relate with a person that's far less or more intelligent, i wouldn't be interested in such a relationship. though for just sex, that's fine.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I have no problem dating an attractive girl who is not very intelligent
what matters is her sweet personality, she likes to smile , she likes to laugh, etc.

[GnatSocks]

I say no, but my idea of dumb is kinda skewed. I hope I don't, though.

[FruitAndBlueEyes]

I’d still be interested, you can always learn something new!

[Saul_Goodman]

It depends. I am not a genius, so if she would be moderately intelligent that would be great. But if she would be totally dumb I wouldn't care about her more even if she would be the most beautiful woman that I've seen.

[Twalli]

I sometimes make jokes that require intelligence to understand. I don't want to have to explain them 100% of the time.

[Wiredone]

Her personality is more important than her intelligence. That's what draws me to women. I look and study them for a while, but I don't stalk.

[AlwaysBelieving]

Yes. I would be bored to tears. I want to have a deep, meaningful conversation with a gal.

[Dchrls78104]

Yes, actually; I would. "A beautiful but empty headed woman reminds you of a pig with a gold ring in its snout."

[Mehzmeh]

That's always the kicker. When you realize she has skate her whole life with her looks. And she is as dumb as rocks, falling to the bottom of the ocean.

[Wise4myage]

Yeah, if she was real ditzy than I wouldn’t see the point staying with her.

[Ripper_E]

Yes. I don't care how good she looks. I am not interested in a woman that lacks intelligence.

[Feelicks]

As long as she's aware of it I wouldn't mind. If you have no fucking clue about something then saying as much or saying nothing is fine.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

No. If she is at least average intelligent then I will be fine with it. She doesn't have to be super smart even though I would love it.

[Abtraction]

lol, as if we choose women based on intelligence. She just need to be somewhat attractive, faithful , regular sex and tolerable to be around.

[AmeerX]

If a girl is too dumb then I might be unattracted but if she is just simple minded then I might be interested in her

[Just_call_me_Levi]

I'm demi-romantic... I need to know you, and know you well... I also need to be able to have an intellectual conversation with you, otherwise friend zone it is.

[worldscolide]

if the person im interested in is less intelligent than i, my interest becomes zero very fast

[SamKishere]

Completely though attraction is key to a relationship I’d rather have someone who is intellectually stimulating and that I can have a real conversation with rather then some sex buddy

[magiusX26]

sorry but yes. its one of my requirements for her to be intelligent.

[Shengning]

I used to believe whether she's smart or not, as long as she respects others, that'll be fine. Turned out most of them are not so respectful. lol

[Paulychicago10]

Option d? Maybe? Depends on how not intelligent you mean. Because her other qualities could play a role in it as well.

[TheAfrikan]

She better poses at least some common sense n have some imaginations. If she dies not then I can lose interest in her.

[Cowboy6666]

thats fine i dont mind that.
but if she hides something from me, cheats on me, talks a lot of lie i would lose interest

[KrakenAttackin]

You can fix a lot of things, but you can't fix stupid.

I might have sex with her for awhile but knowing she is just for fun and not reality.

[krin_m]

Yes, Intelligence is abig part of attraction for me.

[msc545]

Sadly, a lack of intelligence is boring and a deal-breaker for me.

[Larrypagew]

I consider myself to be reasonably intelligent. If I had a woman like that I'd try to teach her things if she is willing to learn.
