Does a girl's intelligence intimidate guys? (1 Viewer)

[loquasagacious]

Gotta define nerdiness and intelligence.

IMO nerdiness doesn't necessarily imply ugliness or intelligence just an interest in nerdy things eg computer games and sci-fi.

Personally I'd only date an intelligent and attractive girl. I don't mind a bit of nerdiness thrown in for good measure but conventions would be a bit over the top.

no actually, this is quite an ill thought brash statement there

and quite obviously you want to dick someone attractive over someone who is good at science

I dont really care if she is good at science or not???

I agree that the term 'nerd' can be associated with some sort of obsession with sci fi and computer games but I think there is a definite implication of ugliness...'

Wikipedia says
Nerd [nɚd] is a term often bearing a derogatory connotation or stereotype, that refers to a person who passionately pursues intellectual activities, esoteric knowledge, or other obscure interests rather than engaging in more social or popular activities. Therefore, a nerd is often excluded from physical activity and considered a loner by peers, or will tend to associate with like-minded people.

Girls? intelligence? pfft.

Formula for an attractive girl:
- Fine breeding (usually french, spanish or swedish, cornish girls are also fair hot)
- Rich parents
- Submissive.

hmm well my initial reaction was that no it doesn't, but then when i look back, every relationship i have been i would say i was the more intelligent one. I don't think i am intimidated by it, but i think like all humans that i would prefer to be the smarter one in a relationship or to both be of similar intelligence, if she is so smart that i feel like a complete drooling retard around her that would make me uncomfortable and it wouldnt last.

Girls aren't intelligent though?

I can't believe we had a discussion over the differences between nerds/intelligence.

ffs

 

[Jezzk]

Well I would say it definitely intimidates, but whether or not it's a bad thing is a totally different question.

I would love it

 

[mushypeach]

if a guy is intimidated by your intelligence to the point that he cannot bring himself to like you, then he is quite clearly a moron.
guys that can't accept the intelligence of girls are worth neither your time nor energy.
