This should be interesting.

If you can't answer why on your own, perhaps an uneducated man is too similar to you and it's actually a bit of self-loathing. :happy:

I had to go all pop psychology since Mike's educated woman was a psychologist in training.

Hahahaha!

I don't care about degree's and whatnot, but I am turned off by guys that aren't intelligent or are insecure. If you can't grasp logic and reason it's not going to work. I've always felt that being smart isn't about how much you know, but about how well you take in new information, grow and adapt. There are people that are "book smart" but are incapable of practical application and that's just... frustrating to deal with.

There's also the people that pretend to be more smart than they are. They're so stuck on appearances they can't ever be silly or playful and instead serious-face all the good times. I avoid them too. Booooooring!

I was gonna twist this and say why am I turned on by a slightly uneducated man. (key word here slightly!!!)

I like feeling like I'm smarter. (key word there is "feeling") :bigsmile: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I don't know that I need an educated man per say ... but I can't stand when a guy says things like "I seen this guy once" .... or I seen this thing the other day ..

I ain't got none .. is another one I can't stand.

Stuff like that bugs me. But if a guy doesn't have a college degree, but works hard .. that is ok with me.

Ha ha ha... this was purely to amuse myself.

However, I do enjoy an intelligent, worldly man, but I evaluate this mostly based on grammar, wit, confidence, ability to contribute to a decent conversation and objectively contemplate the world in all its lovely shades of grey. A degree, advanced or otherwise does not guarantee any of those qualities.

Ladies..what are your dealbreakers or desires when it comes to male intelligence and how that relates to his attractiveness?

Then I recommend you don't go for one. Everyone has their preferences and that's fine. We all have our *things* (God knows I have mine! :laugh: )

If you posted this in a bodybuilding.com forum or any other male-dominated forum, they'd have a few choice words for you. Not sure why some men and women get so bent out of shape when the opposite sex states their preferences.

Damn.... if I hadn't made it a personal life goal to avoid any place or forum where men refer to each other exclusively as "brah".. I would totally post there.

"smash and disregard, brah."

"I had a case of oneitis, but the sloot goofed on me and slept with some tatted manlet. wat do brah?"

LMAO!

I'm a high school teacher, so education is rather important to me. I don't think I could date a guy who hasn't finished high school... it would just be too weird. I also don't think that I could date a guy who doesn't have some sort of post-secondary education, be it college, university, or even trade school. I'm not saying that I need a guy to have a degree or two (or three), but I need someone who enjoys learning, as ongoing learning is an important part of my life.

My husband and exbf both had GED's both were very smart intellegent adn could discuss any manner of things.
