Just as women pretend to value “a sense of humor” in potential male mates, men have been trained to claim they”re besotted with female brains.
Yet, forced to note that the world remains (too) populated (for my tastes), we”re obliged to conclude that this can”t possibly be true. If men bred primarily with intelligent women, the human race would have died off centuries ago, because, let’s face it, most women are dumber than men, or even than especially clever breeds of dog.
(That you fellows can spend so much time nodding away at their pointless chatter is more proof of your superior mental strength. Also? Vaginas must really be something…)
As an otherwise below-average female with an above-average IQ, I have indeed dated “I”m Turned On By Smart Women!” Guy, only to have him make it very clear after a month, tops, that he”d prefer me to be less smart, particularly when his friends are around.
(Whereas, come to think of it, I”ve never told a man to be “less funny.” Hmmm…)
So in the spirit of my “Why Don’t They Just Kill That Guy?” complaint about movies, I find myself wondering”not for the first and last time when confronted with “studies”””Why didn”t these “scientists” just call me?”
But then, all these researchers would have to get real jobs.
And, being a writer, I would too.
