I do, and prefer higher education level in college.. However, its not a deal breaker. My boyfriend highest level of education is starting college but he left after his freshman year because it wasn't for him. I still find him very intelligent and that's sexy to me.
Nope. Don't give a fuck. In fact I usually find more education for women gives worse results. So I tend to not even bother dating women who have 4yr degrees or higher. Most girls I date have no higher education. Which shocks people a lot since I'm highly educated and intellectually and financially accomplished people thing I'd be dating lawyers or doctors. No way no how. I always actively avoid women like that.
I would be more impressed with a woman that could change a tire. Plant a garden. Preserve the food that she raised. Skin a deer that she killed and back up a trailer!
If she had a college degree. That could be a plus. But not required.
I have seen too many highly educated people that would have trouble in everyday necessities. If the need would ever arise!
Not as long as he finished high school ( whether by diploma or ged), is proactive, will support his family, and is moving in a definite and good direction in life.
This is sane. I wish people didn’t judge based on degree so much. So many people with degrees that don’t have a good career
As long as she at least finished high school. Because let's be honest. You pretty much just have to have good attendance to graduate high school. But beyond that I don't care.
I have friends with doctorates and some with high school educations. I have friends that make minimum wage and I have friends who are millionaires. Everyone puts thier pants on one leg at a time. People's value are not determined by these things and I loathe anybody he believes they do.
Very important. I have a doctorate, and I find it difficult to converse with a woman who doesn't at least have a few years of college. More is better of course.
I am amused at all the uneducated people in here bashing education as they struggle to write a few simple and proper English sentences and spell the word correctly.

Hahah same! I really didn't expect answers like that, since I can remember my mom and school is telling me how important education is and well needed in the world
People who cannot tolerate school or are simply not intelligent enough to benefit from it have very negative experiences in college, and often have to denigrate it rather than admit their own failures.
I think you have a good point there
I would prefer a partner who I'd perceive as intelligent but educated doesn't necessarily equal intelligent. Plus many people are overeducated today, you see it among college students.
No. I don't judge people by their education.
Also, intelligence and smartness are not defined by education level.
I don't care if she has a PhD or dropped out of school after the 7th grade. A lot of other things are way more important.
A certain intellect sure, education level is worthless however. Schools and their programs are overestimated. I've met smarter people than doctorate holders, and they have no degree.
No I don’t care
I have noticed “university” educated people who are idiots and losers in daily life.
It’s all a scam.
I know so many people who have a natural ability to absorb knowledge. They are incredibly intelligent without ever having gone to college.
I think I do now. In the past I dated people who were fairly successful without education but they kinda looked down on me because I have an education but I'm not successful.
No I do not care about education level. I expect a functional level of academic type intelligence but much more for emotional intelligence
I care about his ambitions and dreams. So the answers of kind of yes.
As long as she's not dumb, then it shouldn't be much of a problem.
No, curiosity, an open mind, artistic desire/aesthetics and a sense of adventure is much more important than education to me.
Not really. Education does not mean someone is dumb or not. A relationship is about love
Education doesn't equal intelligence. And education doesn't mean anything if you're incompetent and have no work skills or experience.
I prefer an intelligent person who can adapt to any situation according and is thriving.
No, but I would prefer someone who is intelligent and motivated
