I Think Smart Is Sexy

I don't hold back in conversation and I have yet to find a man who isn't intimidated by not only my knowledge base but also simply my vocabulary. So I want to find a man who not only professes to love an intelligent woman but who can actually stand toe-to-toe with one. Just sayin'.

Intelligent people are sexy. Morons are not. That said, there may be an unintended hint of posturing in your post. Not intimidated by strong or intelligent women, but I am leery of challenges. Can you clarify?

@uncalled4 Unintended posturing? No, more like intentional venting. Ending a 2 year relationship where I heard, simultaneously, "I love how smart you are," and, "You use big words to make me feel stupid." Some fragile male egos crumble when challenged not necessarily with a greater intellect, but with any knowledge they don't possess which might require them to listen rather than speak. That's just my bitch today.
