I know it's weird but I really love people who are smart and have good a deep discussion on subjects.
Like talking about psychology or how a computer works, the genetics of DNA, science and so on.
When someone has a good intellegence I find it so sexy! To me it doesn't matter about the looks. To me it's about personality.

My crush is a guy on YouTube called thoughty2 and to me I really like him because he's intellectual.

Am I the only one who thinks like this?

Why is it weird? I think it's normal to be attracted to smart people. The way you feel is certainly normal and very common. Now I am not sure about strangers on YouTube though. I refer to people in real life

Certainly not.

I'm an INTJ who is deep into computers and technology. I'm in college for web design. I plan on starting my own online business and becoming a freelancer with my programming and web developing knowledge. I'm also an avid gamer who plays a lot of strategy games on my spare time.

With that being said, intelligence is a turn on for me as well. I couldn't be with somebody who lacks the intellectual capacity to understand my ideas and passions. Looks are great and all, but if I am going to be with somebody for the long run, they had better have a good head on them.

So to answer your question: yes.

Yep. There is nothing like a good debate or conversation. I like looks, but intelligence is just as important.

For me, it has to be intelligence combined with good common sense. I was married to a guy for 33 years who had a high IQ but absolutely not a tiny bit of common sense. It was a most miserable time of my life.

Sadly the lack of common sense didn't show up until after I was married to him....but it was a real turn off actually & lack of common sense over rode anything the intelligence provided. Definitely NOTHING sexy about that. Lack of respecting someone cancels out any high intelligence that existed.

Fighting all the time.....nothing sexy about it.

But intelligence for me is an attraction.

I also think intelligence is incredibly sexy. And think its a fairly common turn on .

Hey Darkness, I'm an INTJ as well.

I'd take intelligence any day over looks. The irresistible combination for me is intelligence, kindness and a good sense of humor.

[MidnightSparrow]

I agree

When I could talk on the phone to my gf for hours discussing different subjects before we met in person, I knew there was something special there.

When we went on our first date, it was at a bar. We talked an drank and made fun of the same type of people.

We have the same sense of humor and interest in mostly the same topics.

She is now my wife.

Yes. Jennifer, I feel the same way about kindness. Someone can be a freaking genius, and while that will be attractive to me, I won't date someone who is hurtful, unkind, or pushes me away.

Shared humor is actually more important to me than one would think. I find that when my true sense of humor comes out, when someone ACTUALLY thinks I'm funny, and vice versa, I actually think someone else is funny, is a true turn on for me.
