7 Reasons Smart Women Are Sexier

by Kristine Fellizar

I don’t know what it is about society today, but it seems to constantly push the idea that you can’t have it all. If you have the looks, you don’t have the brains. If you’re not typically attractive, you compensate for being the most dynamic person in the room. If you’re successful in your career, you’re most likely single. Sadly, a quick, two-second Google search will leave you with nothing but the same results. Smart women are undateable. They’re just not worth the trouble. But we're here to prove that wrong — more people should be dating dating a smart women.

It seems that smart women always manage to get the short end of the stick when it comes to dating. Bookstores are lined with shelves full of self-help books that like to transform the intelligent woman who can recite fun and witty political commentary into the stupid one who knows absolutely nothing about love. Apparently, the general consensus is that smart women are “difficult,” “challenging,” and the ever-so-popular, “intimidating.”

According to Elite Daily, studies show that females with high intelligence in heterosexual relationships were predicted to be problematic. Whereas, high intelligence levels in men were seen as a desirable trait.

But to all the women out there who feel like they’re constantly being thrown into the reject pile because of their brains, don’t worry. You're smart enough to know that smart women make the best partners.

After all,

1. Smart women make for better conversations.

Nobody wants to be in a relationship where conversational topics always end in, "Yeah, I totally agree." I mean, I guess it's fine after the first few times, but is someone constantly agreeing with what you say really considered a conversation?

2. Smart women have better sex.

Fact: Intelligent women have twice as many orgasms. Studies show that higher levels of emotional intelligence leads to better sexual intelligence. Sex begins with the mind, not the body.

3. Smart women have lives of their own.

They're not waiting around to be told what's fun. They know what's fun and are most likely out there doing it.

4. Smart women aren't needy.

They're not in a relationship because they're needy. They're in a relationship because they want to be in a relationship. For all the people out there who think being with a smart woman is ego-busting, think of how ego-boosting it is that a strong, intelligent woman actually wants to be in a relationship with you.

5. Smart women are confident.

Smart women know their worth and aren't afraid to go after what they want. How sexy is that?

6. Smart women work hard.

Not just at their careers, but at relationships, too.

7. Smart women aren't boring.

There's never a dull moment with intelligent women – so much to talk about and so much to learn.
