Would it be wrong to pursue a woman who isn't very smart?

smart in what way? being book smart or street smart?

at the very least you should want her to be street smart so she doesn't get herself into trouble, drain your wallet and cause unnecessary issues in the relationship

[Asker]

Not book smart

[inhua]

her Diploma, Bachelors degree, PhD or Masters degree is of no value to us

[Asker]

She's ditzy is what I mean.

Most people on the planet aren't very smart.

So really what you are asking is should more than 90% of the population be banned from relationships.

I'm pretty sure they would all reply with "no" if asked that.

[Asker]

I thought it was frowned upon to date or marry a not so smart woman or man, I thought that's why they got mocked on TV shows.

[TheSpaceGnome]

It is, but to their irony, those people are all fairly dumb as well.

You don't typically see exceptionally smart people calling for such nonsense, because they know intelligence can't be bred for, and that the majority of people are dumb.

Most jobs would be abandoned if we had no dumb people. A genius isn't going to want to run the cash register or be a janitor or a plumber or stack boxes or deliver mail for a living. They might do it temporarily on ocassion, but it's not going to be the norm.

People are only compatible if they are around the same level of intelligence

[Asker]

I like her.

[ivyowl]

do you like talking to her?

[Asker]

Yes.

[gothbxtch]

no, but it is wrong to insult her intelligence.

[Asker]

I wouldn't do that.

Being smart is overrated. What you need is awareness.

I'd rather marry someone uneducated than educated. But that's how society is. It has everyone focused on the wrong things.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Awareness comes from being educated and smart.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

It's not wise. You should desire a woman that has at least a good level of intelligence.

[Asker]

Why is that?

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Stupid people tend to make stupid decisions and if you are associated with a idiot then it affects you and your life.

Their conversations tend to drain your energy since they talk a bunch of ish.

And most importantly if you get her pregnant, your seed can inherit someone dumbass genes.

[Asker]

I think it's worth it, and I don't want kids anyway.

[Anonymous]

Depends on intent

[Opinion Owner]

Are you pursuing her because you think it would be easy to take advantage of her?

[Asker]

No, I'm pursuing her because I'm interested in dating her, I'm not just looking for sex.

[Opinion Owner]

Then it's fine. Might end up with some stupid kids tho lol

[Asker]

Lol
I don't want kids anyway.
