Intelligence is
sexy beyond belief.
Attractive in the extreme. I wouldn't say my
loved one is any kind of
bishounen, but he's so
smart (in addition to all those other
good qualities, of course). I found myself reacting to watching him
lecture once the way other women react to
Robert Redford taking off his shirt. My
academia fetish may be a little stronger than most, but the fact remains that
an intelligent guy is exceedingly
attractive to most
geek girls.
It can't be
dumb knowledge, though. An in-depth knowledge of
Linux is probably not going to be a
broad-spectrum aphrodisiac. A range of intelligence and a
rudimentary personality are also important. I know one of the first things that truly impressed me about my
boyfriend was that in addition to being a brilliant
triple major in
Physics-
Math-
Computer Science, he'd read
Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
The whole thing. More than once.
Heart eyes! And he was impressed that in addition to my
humanities specialties, I could discuss
quantum theory and
astrophysics (up to a certain point, anyway ;p).
Intelligence IS sexy.
Rowr!
