I recently saw a study in which men overwhelmingly stated they found smart girls most attractive. But when placed in actual situations with smart girls and dumb girls, the vast majority were far more interested in the dumb girls.
My opinion of this is smart girls have some downsides. Sure its nice to have a deep conversation but its not nearly as nice as a girl who looks to you to lead and is easy to make laugh and smile who is wowed by everything you do. You know the sterotypical dumb girl attitude. And dont forget big fake boobs! Lol.

Let me put it this way, no guy is going to date an ugly girl who is smart, BUT most guys are also not going to date a hot girl that is stupid. Intelligence is required but its not going to be the deciding factor. So I would say a hot girl who is smart is the hottest girl their is but while intelligence definitley makes a girl more attractive its not going to move you up the scale by more then a point or so (if that makes sense).

I prefer to date women who are smarter than me which can sometimes be a challenge to find. I am cursed with a slightly higher than average IQ and seem to attract women who are not as smart unless they are just pretending to be dumb because they think all guys like dumb girls which I don't in particular.
If matched with a good personality, if they are interesting to talk about, they want to share their knowledge and are open to yours then yes. If they have an actitude of "betterthanyou" then no
Intelligence is definitely part of what makes a woman attractive and desirable, but just like with any other trait, she needs to know how to use it correctly. Her intelligence might come across as confidence, or condescension, or nerdiness, or an inability to blend well in social settings. But stupidity is never attractive.
wouldn't say it factors into how sexy they are in can be attractive as I dont think I would like a girl I can't have a convo with because she can't understand concepts but yeah
Buried desires comes to mind as well as doing my utmost to discover & fulfill them if she's my type of woman. Smart women have a flaw though & it's called over analyzing.
The word “intimidating” is applied by women seeking attention with the typical feminist hate attached.
if she's got a nice personality and not stuck up yes
It is more a catalyst. I wouldn't say wow clever, I wish I would fuck her. However, if she is already someone that turns me on being clever would make her much more sexy. On the other hand, being stupid is huge turn off.
I've never understood why women ask this question. Being pretty with character has never been seen as a negative anywhere.
They can be if they have personality and are cute to boot
I think hot girls r hot, intelligence has nothing to do with looks
Impressive and brilliant = attractive
All else equal, yes, very much so.
Intelligence is a turn on
