Title: I think I’m “sapiosexual”
Post by: 𝖘𝖖𝖚𝖎𝖉 on January 21, 2022, 08:23:03 PM
You know, the attraction to intellect. And no, I'm not trying to sound bougie. :sup:
But I feel like most guys are so basic, I don't really see the point in dating someone that I can't talk about deep stuff with sometimes.
If the physical attraction and affection is there, but nothing else, what is the benefit of getting into a relationship with that person?

Also, in the gay world, it's like everyone wants to be the same. Who actually has their own personality or identity without constant need of validation.

Naivety has been such a turn off for me too lately. :rudone:

Oof. Sorry, had to vent a bit.

i like smart guys/"nerds" too.

biggest thing for me is whoever it is would really have their shit together .
intellect is on my list but so are other things. and they're all completely reasonable.

im not jumping into a relationship just to be like "omg look yall im in a relationship! look!!! "

letting someone that close to u in your personal space...especially when ur laser focused on working on very important short term goals - is something to be taken very seriously.

not completely closed off to it at all but i know my worth and what id bring to the table.
big part of loving urself is all about knowing what u deserve and not compromising just for the sake of a tea.

This term is a bit ableist.

For me it's not even being "intelligent" or being "right" it's when they think they're right and confident with it

Maybe you just haven't found THAT person yet

Everyone seek some form of connection but I feel like a true one is uncommon

I think there is also a discussion about whether that means you prefer intellect over other factors like looks or gender. 

I remember the discussion that started after Mark Ronson used that term: https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/mark-ronson-bravely-comes-out-as-sapiosexual-887682/ (https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/mark-ronson-bravely-comes-out-as-sapiosexual-887682/)
