"i want a guy who's smart"
means i want a guy who makes a lot of money, because women's pea brains think smart = successful.
>>
This means they want a guy who gets what he wants, whether it's through intelligence, strength, money, or sheer luck.
>>
>>26669204
They mean they want a guy who's socially intelligent enough to call them out on their bullshit in a dominant yet tactful way.
>>
>>26669204

You'd be surprised how many smart people are also attractive or able to use their intelligence to trick others into thinking they are attractive. Academics are a different issue but academics haven't been the intelligent class for a long time.

>>26669214

If women wanted that they'd go for pushover betas. Women want a man who can intellectually dominate them before physically dominating them. Imagine a truly stupid alpha trying to put a not-entirely-stupid woman into her place. You will never see a man with a woman smarter than him, period. It's partially because women don't like men who are dumber than them and partially because men don't like women who are more intelligent than them. A real alpha male would never accept a woman who can put him in his place intellectually.
>>
Girls want to be impressed and entertained. They rely on men because in truth, women have no real hobbies or interests.

This is a very effective meme, but when are we going to come up with a way to insult the hobbies that women really do have? Like the crochet fatties, or the baker fatties, or the artiste fatties? Those are shit-tier "hobbies" and they deserve to be mocked.

>>26669275
>You'd be surprised how many smart people are also attractive

not really. better genes = more attractive = more likely to be intelligent, or at the very least brought up in an environment where they're constantly positively reinforced and their mistakes easily forgiven.
>>
>>26669342

A fat male is traditionally a sign of a successful alpha who has a woman at home cooking up delicious rich meals. Only unmarried fat males are sub-human. Married fat males are living the best lifestyle.
>>
>>26669204
Not true. Retaining information is not really intelligent, rather it is habit. These men who adapt in to society that work on themselves and learn skills until they feel ready to live their own life show more promise. It is not efficient to learn about things that do not benefit you. So being a spiteful college dropout that showed promise is less than a chad living on his own in content. People need to understand laziness is a sign of stupidity, it shows no discipline and refusing to fix yourself.

Genuinely intelligent girls, especially those who define themselves by their intelligence, do care though, and naturally are able to distinguish the real thing from a fake. They tend to want guys more intelligent than them.
>>
>>26669204

They mean articulate more than smart, but once you're in the 25-35 range, I've found that girls generally do. They want someone who is smart AND well rounded.

You all who whine about "dumb jocks" don't realize that most of the dumb jocks are smarter than you. You guys are worse than redditors. Life isn't a fucking RPG where you have limited stats. Some (in your guys case, almost all) people are just better than you at nearly everything.

Maybe the problem isn't those DUMB BITCHES LOL it's that you're the male equivalent of a disgusting entitled fat chick whose hobbies are knitting and cat fancy and thinks the world owes them something.
>>
>>26669204
>Obviously the smart guys aren't getting the girls.
Hardly.
The analysis of highly gifted and above people by Dr. Ruf and a similar analysis of high IQ individuals by Dr. Zahra showed a few interesting things
1) People with a formally measured IQ of 130+ are *better* at social interaction, overall with people that have an IQ of 145+ being overall 'very good to excellent' at social interaction (there are always outliers)
2) People with an average IQ (90 to 110) who encountered socially awkward people tended to assume they were either of low IQ or high IQ but that perception was based upon the socially awkward person's topics of discussion: if the socially awkward person discusses stereotypical 'nerd' or 'geek' topics (science fiction in particular) were seen as having an above average IQ and people who discussed stereotypically 'mundane' topics (such as sports) were seen as below average intelligence *regardless of their actual IQ*
>A man with an 85 IQ talking about Star Wars was seen as above average while a man with an IQ of 115 was seen as stupid because he discussed cars
3) They also found (especially Dr. Zahra) that socially awkward people with an average IQ that had 'nerd' hobbies (science fiction, comics, etc.) were more likely to believe that they had above average IQ regardless of grades, performance, or test scores.
So - Smart guys get plenty of girls; having watched a lot of Dr. Who != being smart.

So how do you explain the fact hat half of people in engineering / physics / math courses seem at least borderline autistic while people in fields like English, communications, and history are generally at least normal?

>H-h-hey guys, how do you explain my unsupported anecdotes? Huh? I mean, I know nerds!
You are mistaking grades with IQ, probably. For example, if you do the ususal google of 'what is the average IQ of an engineer?' business you see all sorts of stuff, like 'materials engineers have an average IQ of 133'.
Bullshit. You have to look at the long=term longitudinal study of occupations and IQ from the University of Wisconsin started decades ago by Dr. hauser. Guess what? Even the engineers with the highest average IQ, Electrical Engineers, have an average *within a single standard deviation), meaning the average engineer has an average IQ.
Protip: being obsessed or dedicated != high IQ.

The association with Autism is not only a little suspect but the number of ACTUALLY autistic people is low enough that they are outliers, anyway

According to Hauser's data, EE average IQ is 126, which is MORE than 1 standard deviation above average IQ. In fact, all the STEM fields have average IQs greater than 1 SD from average. Further (this graph and the link refer to Hauser's data), the STEM fields clearly have IQs greater than that of other fields, without question.

So now the question is whether or not they tend to be less socially adept. That's still within question and I'm not in the mood to look up studies that confirm or refute the overhwhelming anecdotal evidence that suggests so, but you did not disprove this point either.

The only important fact here is that STEM fields are clustered at the top.

>>26670790
so, talking to someone online is exactly the same as meeting them in real life and having a relationship with them? i've been using dating sites and other online avenues for 4 years, and had no success. if there are no compatible women in close proximity to you, you have no one to meet.

I know a dozen of guys (and girls) who've met through the internet. A friend of mine fucked a couple of chicks he met playing some stupid online game (and was stupid enough to knock one of them up). My friend's little sister got with her bf because they were part of the same WoW guild.

It's definitely an easier start than going from zero to asking girls out in real life. I used to be a shy introvert and shat myself all of the time when talking to girls, irl. I wish I had the internet at my disposal to learn the basics, when I was still a clueless spaghetti-dropping loser.

Not that poster but.
I think specific facial features and such would be more likely to be a good indicator. Given how broad the range of white (any race) people are.

But I question how accurate this really is. Sure if we have something like blue eyed people happened to be smarter at some point they'd breed more and be more successful in the past. But we've been a monogamous society for a very long time. The effects can't be that big because I don't think the difference in amount of smart people reproducing and stupid people reproducing is that big. If it were so that we took an IQ test before puberty and got rid of anyone below a limit we would probably seen the effects quite quickly. And obviously preference for high IQ would be higher, who wants their child taken away from them?

I didn't say you didn't say the truth. You only told a partial truth. You were trying to deceive. That's also why you didn't post a source.

It actually doesn't matter if it's still within a standard deviation of average IQ since we're concerned here with the IQ compared to other occupations, not to the average IQ as a whole. What we see, based on these stats, is that not only is the average IQ significantly higher for those in STEM fields, but more very intelligent people go into them. This is what tells us that the STEM fields are full of intelligent people in comparison to other fields. Nearly a full standard deviation above average IQ, IS quite significant, by the way.

The original point wasn't that engineers are socially awkward therefore smart people are socially awkward. The point was that social awkwardness is MORE common among intelligent people than normal people, and STEM was used to illustrate that, because STEM represents the height of intelligence and stereotypically socially inept.

the qtiest girls i ever had the chance to speak to in middle-school and high-school had good social skills and whenever they offered an insight into anything i found it rather clever
