SapioSexual

Definition of sapiosexuality :.
(sā-pē-ō-sĕk-shü-ăl'ĭ-tē)

1. 1. (n.) A behavior of becoming attracted to or aroused by intelligence and its use.
Origins: From the Latin root sapien, wise or intelligent, and Latin sexualis, relating to the sexes.
Example: Me? I don't care too much about the looks. I want an incisive, inquisitive, insightful, irreverent mind. I want someone for whom philosophical discussion is foreplay. I want someone who sometimes makes me go ouch due to their wit and evil sense of humor. I want someone that I can reach out and touch randomly. I want someone I can cuddle with. I decided this all means that I am sapiosexual.

I want to make sure I post on this as well so I am writing a pre-post if you will. I might just expound on this as well later.

I was recently informed that the correct word to describe me is sapiosexual.

1) I am in love with the word (which in itself probably describes WHY I am sapiosexual
2) I am glad that someone finally found a word to describe me. (kudos goes to Huber)

In this young single world I live in girls often talk about the type of guys you like. Over and over again I reply that I don't really have a type. I quickly correct myself because 98% of the guys I have dated/are attracted to are tall and have dark brown hair. Eye color varies. In that past three years or so I have also added another quality.

I AM ATTRACTED TO SMART MEN!

I can't help it! Two very handsome men could be next to each other. No.... one mind blowingly hot guy could be next to his slightly less than average friend. The slightly average man opens his mouth and starts talking about something smart and the hot guy has no clue what he is saying.( I on the other hand usually do, but when I don't ALL THE BETTER) And I want to offer my body to the less than average guy. Slightly true story. I would never offer my body to anyone but I think you get the point.

I suppose it came from nearly marrying one of the most unmotivated unintelligent guys out there. That was a turning point for me. That is not how I want to live my life.I am smart. VERY smart. I am tired of being the hard working smart one in the relationship. I don't want to be the one in charge for the rest of my life merely because I am the only one that knows anything. I want someone who challenges my mind, my views, and someone I can have a great conversation with! I want someone to completely show me up in a conversation because...well that's just sexy. I am sorry, if you are cute but a complete retard, I just want no association with you. As it is I am trying to weed out my unintelligent friends, I don't need another person to add to the list.

So next time you see me walking down the street with a less than average guy... just know that he blows my mind. Literally.
