Why do guys act so infatuated with hot girls who happen to also be smart?

Anonymous
It’s always been funny to me how a guy will think I’m hot upon first meeting, but upon actually engaging in even the most rudimentary of academic conversations, suddenly put me on some pedestal as if it’s the most novel thing in the world to encounter an intelligent, slutty woman. There are plenty out there im sure. Is this a fetishized thing or what is the deal with it?

My larger point I guess is that there a lot of girls out there you could put in this category. It’s not really that special I don’t think and yet guys act like girls of this sort are some mythical creature or something lol. I’ve seen it happen with certain friends of mine over the years as well
