It's true, later on in the season, she falls for a dumb cowboy. There's even a scene where he says something stupid, she comments "You're so stupid." and kisses him good-bye.

I had my fair share of dumb girls in the past. They are easy to flirt with, are shallow enough that they put up a lot of effort to overcompensate their dumbness with their looks and can be fun to play with.

A smart girl is a totally different beast altogether.

They care about the same things that dumb girls care about, rules of attraction are more or less the same all around. They look for an attractive, smart, confident and fun guy.

If a girl says that one of those four qualities is not important, they are lying or compromising, possibly because of their own self-esteem.

Same applies to guys. Ideally the girl is attractive, smart, confident and fun. If you ever find one of us saying different, we are lying or have a lower self-esteem.

Reality is that beauty is in the eye of a beholder too. How you look, is entirely up to you. You can always make yourself look better by looking more healthy, no matter if you are a guy or a girl.

The reason why attractive and dumb girl concept exists is because it is easier to be that, as opposed to being smart. Let's face it, most girls are dumb. Problem is that because most girls are dumb (and most guys are dumb), smart girls think that we are into dumb girls, when in fact dumb girls are simply easier to get.

A smart girl looks for intellectual match just like a smart guy does. You want to have banters, teasings, witty humour, sarcasm. You want to have arguements that are worth the time they last. Ideally we are looking for a partner in life, someone we can rely on and someone who understands what we like and want from life.

You cannot build a family with a dumb girl who is just there for parties and bed games. And when it comes to bed games? Breaking beds with a smart girl has been the most fun I've ever had.

Guys (except me and everyone else who is supercool of course) don't fall for smart girls in particular, just for the pretty ones. Dumb girls compensate for their dumbness by making themselves pretty, so guys fall for those.

And the smart guys make fun of the Dumb girls they dated after a few years.

My old AP physics teacher always brought up the "hot but stupid" classmate he tutored and dated in College. He always ends the story by saying he couldn't take another day of her. So smart guys who date dumb girls will have somewhat interesting stories in the future I suppose.

I feel like my sister's a little the opposite- she's really smart and pretty, but she tends to date morons. Her high school bf was an evangelical young Earth creationist who wore scumbag steve hats and waxed his eyebrows. Thankfully they broke up, but now she's sort of seeing a guy who tried to light his fart on fire. I guess that's what happens when you hang out with frat boys.

This begs the question, what makes some one smart? A lot of people think regurgitating things they read in books and the news paper and saw on Dr. Phil and The View makes them smart.

Most people are smart for some things and dumb for other things. I have met a lot of people who are book smart, but lack vital elements of common sense. People who are very good at their jobs, that don't know how to read a map. People with a high GPA who don't actually know anything, and are really just good at following directions and eager to comply with the expectations of others.

More to the point, what is the value of intelligence? To be successful in our society one needs only to be smart enough to obtain a skillset, and follow instructions. A lot of times excessive intelligence seems to be detrimental to practical success and overall happiness in life.

That said, I've never met a smart girl. Lots of girls are clever, and they think they are smart, but fall short of the practical applications of basic intelligence.

[–]Frostxtq 0 points1 point ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

There are certain qualities that are strongly correlated with intelligence - critical thinking for example. Reading a bunch of books doesn't make you intelligent, it may make you more knowledgeable, but that's different from intelligence. Intelligence is mostly the ability to figure shit out, to learn. Knowledge matters less than the ability to gain it, in my opinion. It doesn't matter how much a girl knows about evolution for example, it's more important that she has the capacity to understand it and its mechanism when it is presented to her.

Define smart. Because way too often smart stands for awkward\hipster\too good to talk to you\I blatantly dress like a hobo because fashion is for sheeple\generic narcissist that will try to one up whatever you say.

The smart people I know, tend to do well mixing with other smart people with the same interests.

That's my experience at least.

Smart=interesting. Often including people who may also be awkward/hipster/too good to talk to/ and those who have better things to do than get uptight about how they dress.

The smart girls I know tend to mix well with me because we have similar interests.

That's my experience at least.

sorry didn't mean to offend if you're a dude. what sort of interests do you share with smart girls?

Having a life of the mind in itself counts as a similar interest, I think, in the most general sense.

Interesting people are rarely in your face. I don't find fanatics of any sort, particularly interesting.

People who think they are interesting are always in your face. People who are passionate about something are always interesting. I guess the difference between passion and fanaticism is largely one of semantics.

To come back to the original post, a smart person rarely defines him/herself as such. Genuinely smart and interesting people don't have problems finding people to talk to.

Whining about smart guys choosing dumb girls, usually means that guys don't appreciate studied "quirkiness" or your attention whoring. And it's not about physical attractiveness either. The only difference is that some people (of both sexes) will disregard idiocy if you are hot, but will not do the same if you are not.

Self proclaimed intelligence and whining about other people's stupidity more often than not is the sign of a pretentious asshole.

I aim for dumb girls...sure. Every smart girl I've ever had starts expecting near-impossible things from me. Good on her she has ambition but shit get off my dick...

Smart Girl: "If you were a real man you'd be president, maybe you should've paid more attention in school, made more contacts, put yourself out there, look at you now content to being a small business owner, playing games, how do you think you'd survive if this recession gets any worse? Eating this is bad for you, smoking this is bad for you, doing too much of this is bad for you, [bitch bitch bitch]"
