Reply #73: It's not true about me (really!), [View All]

but my experience has been among executives in the business world. I can absolutely verify that the huge majority of talented, ambitious, intelligent men that I have known are attracted to looks and youth, not brains or ability. This is equally true for married and un-married men. Of course there are exceptions (like me). But I would estimate 80%+ of males are not attracted to, or particularly interested in (romantically), highly intelligent women. Everyone knows this, even if they don't speak about it. There are evoloutionary reasons for this phenomenon.

(It should also be mentioned that UN-intelligent men are ALSO attracted to looks and youth, not intelligence.)
