Mmmm brains….

A very common complaint in the dating world is that men don’t appreciate/ are intimidated by smart girls. By “common” I mean for me, and by “don’t appreciate” I mean it makes them insecure, and calls their manhood into question.

In my other post, Qualifications, I mentioned that one of the women who was trying to set me up suggested that I “dumb down” so to speak. Meaning, don’t let on to how smart you really are because you’re going to scare away the men.

Aside from the fact that this is the 21st century where equality for women is a thing of the present, in reality guys I date should be thankful that I am career driven.

Nowadays you can’t survive without two incomes so stop crying and feeling insecure and instead say “Hey thanks for helping pay the bills so we don’t have to resort to prostitution, second mortgages or occupying wall street.”

No need to feel threatened my dear men-children!

In my experience, I have often found that many guys would rather date young ditzy girls with nothing to offer except mind numbing facts about Gossip Girl and Kim Kardashian’s wedding divorce. Despite the idiot prattle that flows freely from their face holes, these girls get scooped up and carried over the threshold in wedded bliss.

For a smart girl…I must be missing something here…

As a not unfortunate looking, young woman who is fun, kind (when you don’t piss me off) likes to learn, travel and is the epitome of humble and modest (clearly), I just don’t understand why a guy would rather be with an airhead, bitchy girl whose life revolves around superficial shenanigans- unless he is marrying her for her money in which case I totally get that ;). These girls need to occupy some brain cells and do something productive with their lives, it’s the least they can do after freeloading off our society like a parasite and stealing all the tall men.

To sum:

If the guys I’m dating aren’t interested in all that I have to offer, I may have to find my one true love among the undead…
