Why I Identify Myself as a Sapiosexual Woman
Are you the smartest person in the bedroom?
We all have our preference in dating. Our dating choices are often marked by either physical or mental attraction.
Except you are a non-libidoist asexual — someone who doesn’t experience any sexual feelings or have an active sex drive.
Different terms have been used to describe our individual sexual orientation.
If you are attracted to other people’s intelligence, you are a sapiosexual like me.
Nothing turns me on more in a stranger than a guy who knows how to engage in a constructive conversation.
That does not mean I do not like handsome champs. I take notice and appreciate his lips, arms, skin, and height.
It takes about 10 seconds to get over my admiration towards a gorgeous guy. What turns me on is the brain behind that beauty.
We can connect on a deeper level within an hour into our conversation if he expresses wit, intelligence, and a quick mind, than when he shows off his muscles and defined cheekbones.
I get bored of a cute face pretty quickly, especially when we have nothing in common to talk about.
