How much can intelligence turn you on?
- Intelligence can turn me on a lot!
- Intelligence can turn me on a bit.
- Intelligence does nothing for me either way.
- Intelligence turns me off.
Are you kidding? Intelligence is SEXYYYYY! Guys (at least in my experience) tend to be all appearance focused. And, sure, I like to see pics eventually. But to me, nothing's sexier than a guy who has an inquisitive mind, who asks questions, who has opinions, and who seeks in life.
To expand further -- of course I can aesthetically enjoy a good-looking guy. And there are certain guys that definitely make me take a second look. But in the end, I'm a lot more interested in his personality -- his mind -- than in his body.
I've never dated anyone that was my "ideal physical type." I have, however, dated men who are my ideal personality type, which is more important. They've come in all sizes and shapes, of different races and backgrounds.
Am I completely non-shallow? Of course not. I've met guys with great minds whose bodies just, um, didn't do it for me. But in the end, if he has a wonderful personality (intelligent, questioning, good conversationalist), and I'm not turned off by his body, then I will be majorly turned on by who he is.
