Back to front logic - higher IQ types are already concentrating on the intellectual/ academic stuff and attraction/ sex doesn't enter the picture. When you're "head-in-the-clouds" thinking all day it's got to be someone immensely special to make you bothered enough to give sex a go...
It might just have to do with the number of potential partners that are available. People are usually most interested in finding a partner who has roughly the same intelligence. If you're average, you have the largest pool of people with the same intelligence to choose from. If you are extremely smart, there are fewer people with the same intelligence, so your prospect of finding someone who interests you is lower. Also, since men are more likely to be extremely intelligent than women (that’s not me being sexist, that’s just a verifiable fact), there’s going to be an oversupply of men and undersupply over women among the very intelligent...which is not good for one’s dating prospects. Edit:By the way, all these posts speculating that smart people don't want sex are pretty hilarious.
On a side note: I don’t have a reference handy (I’m sure you can google it up if you want), but I read about a study a while ago that more educated people tend to have better sex and are more likely to have “kinky” sex than less-educated people. There’s probably a correlation between educational attainment and intelligence, so it seems that even though smart people have less sex...they are better at it when they do manage to have it!
Yup. But it didn't bother me one way or the other. I had other, far more interesting, things to think about. Poor you. If she can't engage my mind then she's SOL.
Well, no doubt there are far more interesting things to think about than sex. Nevertheless, which of those topics has more emotional pull? Sex has nothing to do with engaging one's mind. That's more for marriage or living together or friendship.
Nope. There's an old saying that sex is 90% imagination and 10% friction. I went through this a year or two back in another thread - a mind-fuck is way better than a physical one. No engagement of my mind - no sex.
How many women are smart enough to engage your mind anyway? Must be a very small number of mind-fucks you get.
Better than what? Do you mean NOT getting laid much? As much as I want (and I turn it down FAR more often than accept). Quality, not quantity! Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
If you don't want to get laid, then you could correctly say that you are getting laid as much as you want. This is deceptive. One mind fuck equals how many frictional lays?
