Intelligence alone is not enough to turn me on but lack of intelligence definitely turns me off!

I used to think I was, until I met a pretty smart guy who ended up being more of a "know it all" and made me (and others) feel stupid. Still on the lookout for a smart guy who is smart enough to be tactful too!

I like em thick as a brick Possibly full brain surgery including removal of all frontal lobes and cortex

Think a good few people on this site probably fit the label.

The whole reason I was attracted to this site was the increased likelihood of encountering women with whom to carry on interesting exchanges of ideas and from whom one can learn. The only disappointment is that so many are too far away to easily meet in person for authentic contact. Please don't misinterpret my use of authentic...

Most definitely a sapiophile. One of the main reasons I am single to be honest.
I will jest and carry on, play down my positive attributes and exaggerate the negatives.
Occasionally someone will see through this but then things go sour because I get categorised as intellectual, and am often called an intellectual snob which is not the case. I am just more attracted to intelligent ladies.

I know what you mean, it helps a relationship to be able to communicate intelligently on a range of topics. I think more importantly to me is someone who enjoys the conversations whether they are super intelligent isn’t my concern as much as they are an enjoyable conversationalist and those do not always go hand in hand.

I just joined the group to find new people to be obnoxious with. Facebook has gotten full of very low I.Q. Trump supporters, many I went to school with. They were celebrating the new tax bill, I had to find a new venue. The level of discourse is a bit higher here, the people more down to earth and the subjects go from nerdy to inane to non-linear physics. A good mix I think. As for physical attractiveness, I have to go on a person-by-person basis-it's not like I look like George Clooney.

I seem to be in this category, but I'm not sure it identifies me, or that I identify with the label. It's only one facet.

I know that I am when it comes to on-line dating. If I'm reading a woman's profile, and if there are repeated spelling errors, if she says "your" instead of "you're", and especially if she uses the word "alot", then I will move on to the next profile.

Yes. I'm attracted to skeptics, freethinkers and critical thinkers. Faith-based sheeple are a turn off but they make up the vast majority. In every atheist or evidence based social group I have joined, the men clearly out number the women.

Anyone who makes a conscious decision from rational thought that there is no big grey bearded guy (or any other deity for that matter) usually can be considered intelligent. So, you’re on the right site to satisfy your desire.

I'm quite suspicious of sapiophiles.

I once began chatting to one online. He was a sapiophile apparently. The communication continued for a few weeks and to cut a long story short - he preferred intelligent women under 30 who had long legs and blond hair.

The little red heart thingy says we're 100% match. So that's all you need to know! Ha ha ha. Boy if it were that simple

All the time

I'm just a song & dance man.??????

I'm pretty sure that wouldn't be me. ☺

You had me at "grammar!"

Intelligence is definitely an aspect of attraction for me but isn't the whole story.

I like the female form, the hourglass shape I have seen in biology booksmy whole life. I need that too.

Yep. And there are a lot of others on here, too.

People who see the world with fresh eyes, who want to drink their fill. Society has built so many barriers keeping us from one another........

It was that way with my wife, smart (ok, brilliant), funny, cute. I miss the stimulation more than anything else. I wish I could find that again, but I don't hold out much hope.

Yup. Me. All what you said applies.

What is a sapiophile?
