Important Breaking News from CNN: Woman Recounts Her Several Minor Brush-Offs of Dates Who Voted Trump as If They're High Drama

Ugh.

Couple of points:

If a woman says that being a Trump-voter is a deal-breaker, dude, don't attempt to date her. So many reasons. So many reasons.

Putting aside the obvious ones -- like, she's a hyperpolitical c*** who will fight with you over every minor thing to prove she's empowered -- the odds of any two people being a match are pretty low, and if the other person has already set up what she terms a "deal-breaker" condition and you break that, then the odds go from just north of zero to considerably south of zero.

What the hell, dude? You want to make boring chit-chat with a stranger you probably don't like and pick up the cost of her meal for the pleasure of it?

If you're thinking "better a bad date than no date," wrong. A bad date is the worst.

Avoid.

I can't say I feel super-sympathetic to her dates, to be honest. One concealed his party affiliation to make it to a coffee with her, and neither dealt with rejection well.

I mean, they didn't deal with it poorly enough to get an article written about it, but this is the ride you bought a ticket for when you tried to date a hyperpartisan feminist vulture. This is all on you, bruvs. She told you what she was upfront, and you went a-courtin' anyhow.

Here's something I've been thinking about lately, which I'm sure has been discussed before.

The human brain craves struggle and stress. Well, crave is the wrong word -- it expects struggle and stress. It expects competition, and risk, and sometimes loss, and sometimes triumph.

It may not crave stress and struggle per se, but it is in fact engineered to be on the lookout for stress and struggle, and then put its problem-solving algorithms to work in overcoming that stress and struggle.

While the brain doesn't crave stress and struggle per se, it does in fact notice its absence when it's missing. It doesn't miss struggle and stress per see -- but it does notice that something important is missing when it doesn't encounter them.

Here's an analogy: You could get along fine without having to make a bowel movement (if your biology were modified such that you digest every atom of food you consume).

But while you wouldn't miss not having bowel movements, you would notice: "Wow, this very basic and very elemental part of human existence is no longer part of my life. That's very weird, and I don't know how I feel about it."

You might even just sit on the toilet on occasion to just mimic the process you once considered to be day-to-day normal and inevitable.

This was a weird thing I felt when I fasted for five days. I didn't have to poop because, well, I wasn't eating. But still, it felt weird not to poop, and you gotta know I googled "Am I dying if I don't poop when fasting" on Google a few times.

Point is, the human brain is engineered to expect struggle and stress. It is also engineered to feel strong emotions about struggle and stress, and to feel depression and a lack of worthiness when failing, but also to feel the euphoria of victory.

Fortunately -- and also unfortunately -- many people do not face much stress or struggle in their lives. They certainly don't have to hunt every morning, unsure if they'll be eating that night. They face no large predators, they are menaced by no strangely-feathered tribesmen from across the forbidden hills.

This would be a good thing -- sort of like no longer having to excrete waste would be a good thing -- except the brain realizes that something's missing.

No stress, no struggle -- that's good. That means no unsatisfied hunger, no days of desperate want.

But it also means no triumph.

People's brains sense that something is missing.

And many people's brains decide, unfortunately, to fill that gap by inventing silly, stupid dramas in their lives.

Their brains feel the absence of something fundamentally human and vital, and so being inventing fake make-pretend versions of it -- like me sitting on the toilet even though I didn't have to poop.

They play-act struggle, like I play-acted pooping.

Sure, this woman writing this stupid article doesn't have the high emotion of having to find her way back to her village in the pitchblack of a moonless night, listening for the sounds of jackals in the scrub.

That's a good thing.

But she senses the emptiness of a life without challenge and a life without purpose and a life without movement, whether forwards (hopefully) or backwards (sadly -- but at least you know what it is to feel loss).

And so she's set her mind -- unconsciously, I'm sure; she doesn't seem like a deep thinker to me -- to inventing Pretend Struggles to fill her lazy, boring, empty, meaningless challenge-free life with.

A woman who takes great pride in writing about her insignificant bad dates (90% of all dates are bad dates -- spoiler alert) is obviously not a woman with a great deal of true challenge or forward-moving progress in her life.

A woman who's spent the morning achieving at her start-up side-hustle business already has enough sense of stress and struggle in her life -- she feels the sting of failure and the rush of triumph whenever she makes or loses a sale.

She has enough stress -- and the positive version of stress, eustress, excitement, anticipation, the feeling of being in the game and playing with stakes that matter -- that she doesn't have to ridiculize herself by pretending that each faint squeak of a semi-fart in her life is some Grand Adventure fit to be memorialized and shared with the public.

People with lives of actual interest and consequences do not have to blow trivial incidents into battles of good and evil unseen since The Two Towers.

A lot of people simply do not have much purpose, or much to do, or much to look forward to tomorrow.

Idle hands are the devil's playthings -- and an idle mind is the devil's drafting table.

Get busy, lady, or just get bent. Either way, you'd be checking some box on some checklist, you'd be doing the rest of us a big favor by actually doing something of genuine consequence instead of stinking up the place with your sad, cold-sweat Walter Mitty tales of triumph.

They won't allow me to enjoy anything. They are having an ATP Tennis Tournament in Long Island, The NewYork Open.

A black player, Donald Young and white player Ryan Harrison had a little confrontation when they changed sides. Today I read that Donald Young accused Harrison of a racist slur during the confrontation . Harrison denies it and says that any tape will prove it. Of course Harrison has been labeled a racist already.

24 Increasingly, I see the logic in MGTOW, even if many of its proponents go WAY overboard.

I really want to see leftist "womyn" get attacked and more by Machismo Illegals if they are lucky, or better yet, Muslim men if they are not. The "multicultural" leftist brainwash gets knocked out of them, I hope. or will the Stockholm Syndrome (my how Euro-Centric!) still rule?

Perhaps cooperative inmates of such backgrounds who rat out fellow gang members or terrorists could be treated to special "conjugal visits" with said leftist "Womyn" criminals getting thrown into the cell with them for a night.

There is no reason to date someone you know for a fact will not sleep with you, hot or not.

And "putting your skills" to the test is not a good reason, if you know you're going to fail.

David Carr, former QB of the Texans, "put his skills to the test" seeing if he could not get sacked when he had a porous line that almost seemed to be trying to help the defense sack him. He lost his confidence and was soon out of the league. He couldn't throw except out of the fetal position he had been taught to assume.

The thing is, she doesn't seem to grasp that she's bumping up against her sell-by date. This used to be a common phenomenon in the Bay Area (maybe still is; IDK): rabid feminists in their 20s jerking guys around (roll over, sit up, play dead, that sort of thing) because they were young and hot and could get away with it.

Fast forward 20 years, and now that shit didn't so well any more, as some of these fish decided that they wouldn't mind a bicycle after all, but the guys their age were pushing past them to chase the young chicks.

My buddies still in the Bay Area took great pleasure in recounting this phenomenon. Gotta strike while the iron is hot, girls.

83 You write an interesting premise Ace. From a Christian world-view, your post might read something along the lines of "Every person craves meaning, including meaningful work." Work is a blessing and we were made for it. Without the strain of work that you describe, we see ourselves as empty and purposeless. So we regress to minutia. Work is dignity, meaning, fulfillment. This woman clearly could use a week as a dishwasher in a diner.

I mean, why waste time? If a woman only wants a guy six foot or taller, that's her taste, and there's no sense trying to "convert her" or whatever.

If a guy says he only wants age or size x, then, well, look -- they're just saving time. They could go out and meet you and pretend pretend pretend while they're waiting for the bill to come. They're just being efficient, and putting rejection on the front-end instead of the back-end.

171 . . . The major problem which the medical profession in the most advanced sectors of the galaxy had to tackle after cures had been found for all the major diseases, and instant repair systems had been invented for all the physical injuries and disablement except for some of the more advanced forms of death, was employment.

Planets full of bronzed healthy clean limbed individuals merrily prancing through their lives meant that the only doctors still in business were the psychiatrists, simply because no one had discovered a cure for the Universe as a whole -- or rather the one that did exist had been abolished by the medical doctors.

Then it was noticed that like most forms of medical treatment, total cures had a lot of unpleasant side effects. Boredom, listlessness, lack of . . . well anything very much, and with these conditions came the realization that nothing turned, say, a slightly talented musician into a towering genius faster that the problem of encroaching deafness, and nothing turned a perfectly normal healthy individual into a great political or military leader than irreversible brain damage.

Suddenly, everything changed. Previously best selling books such as How I Survived an Hour with a Sprained Finger were swept away in a flood of titles such as How I Scaled the North Face of the Megapurna with a Perfectly Healthy Finger but Everything Else Sprained, Broken, or Bitten Off By a Pack of Mad Yaks.

181 Haven't yet read all of Ace's essay, but in case he skipped this key point, it needs to be made:

Men will jumps through ANY hoops and violate EVERY rule if they think it gives them a chance of having sex with someone they deem attractive.

So it's no surprise at all that some men will lie about the politics just to get a chance at some poontang.

Horny male: "Hey, baby."
Attractive female: "I only date men with $1 million in the bank, minimum. If you are poorer than that, it's a deal-breaker."
Horny male (who actually is flat broke): "Well then you're talking to the right guy! I'm so rich that at the moment I'm pretending to be poor just so I can see what normal people's lives are like. THat how empathetic I am. Empathetic and rich. So, pick you up at 8?"

well men do like girls who play hard to get so long as it's only PLAYING hard to get. And also, isn't very very hard to get.

Any girl should know that if a guy isn't willing to do the basic courtship rituals, and do some chasing, he's not looking to date, he's looking to get laid.

so yeah girls should play hard to get in the sense of making sure the guy has an interest beyond the vaginal.

I'm just saying that some girls like to be chased forever, and then, personally, i stop chasing.

187 "Point is, the human brain is engineered to expect struggle and stress. It is also engineered to feel strong emotions
about struggle and stress, and to feel depression and a lack of
worthiness when failing, but also to feel the euphoria of victory."

-----------

The key is choosing the proper field of endeavor. Like sexual positions, or multiple orgasms. You can lie in bed afterwards and slap yourself in the forehead "We could have done it in the armchair!" or "damn, I was going for three."

And in between having great sex, you can garden. You're pitting yourself against nature, and that's a worthy opponent indeed. The thrill of getting something to thrive when it's not supposed to in your agricultural zone, or the sadness of birds getting your berries before you had a chance to pick them.

All of this presupposes that you aren't involved with a feminist or soyboy, of course. Don't do that.

194 My brother recently moved to DC. He's recently been on a few dates with a self-described feminist who unsurprisingly hates Trump and yet she apparently enjoys going out with my brother because, get this, he actually defends his opinions and doesn't roll over for her. Apparently the only type of man she's found in the DC area is the soyboy who agrees with everything she says no matter what and doesn't challenge her, which is apparently getting very old and driving her up a wall. Proof once again that women will tolerate many types of flaws in men, but the one trait that every woman despises is weakness.

I guess my brother has found DC to be a target rich environment for a man with even the slightest bit of confidence.

200 Back when I was younger (which is getting to be farther away) I wouldn't have really cared about someone's politics and probably not gotten into the discussion much. I mean I always leaned conservative etc. But never thought much about it. Especially if she was hot I really wouldn't care. Fortunately my wife of 20 plus years is conservative. I often wonder to myself if I could marry a liberal and the answer is NO. I would never want to be with someone that far away from my belief system of right and wrong. I'm sure there's some couples that make it work. I just couldn't do it. So if I was single now I wouldn't even go on a date with a lib, even if she was hot. Fortunately I don't have that conundrum.

224 Couples who were married in the past prior to WWII were arranged through their parents and familiy members. Also, the kids were the property of the father to prevent women from running off cheating and abandoning the kids.

The roots of modern dating originate in the 1650's in advertisements in the papers for homosexuals to have sex at night on the down low.

Me either. Nobody wants to have to fight to get some level of affection and attention. Sure its not as fun if she just jumps in your lap as if you have to work a bit to earn her affection but it shouldn't be a challenge to get her interest. The challenge comes in getting more than just interest, in becoming friends, then building a relationship.

Nobody wants to have to work hard just to get noticed.

240 "You see, as a conservative female in a blue state and industry, I have had the opposite problem: wildly liberal men."

You need to find a nice plumber or electrician. Of course there's an asynchronous problem with dating/mating preferences: men really couldn't care less about the social status of their partners as long as they look "hot", hence all the "rich guy hooks up with servant girl" stories that stretch back forever. On the other hand, Women generally have a built in aversion to partnering with a man who has a lower social status than he does, no matter what he looks like.

And here's the real, unavoidable unfairness of gender - the more accomplished and skilled a man gets, the more potential partners he has available. The exact opposite is true for women.

This isn't so much about her love life as an attempt to be a cultural manipulator. They want this to be the basic standard of proper behavior.

Ace pointed this out weeks ago; the left's primary power is in being Beau Brummel, the ones who decide what is in and what is not, what is done and what is simply not done. What is cool and what is not. What is worn, what is not.

As long as they are the arbiters of proper social conduct and what is considered cool, they have tremendous power over all our lives, like it or not.

Making it simply uncool to date Trump or be associated with him creates tremendous social pressure against him and his policies. So far they aren't very successful but they never give up and it probably will eventually work.

If a girl wants to be with you, she'll find ways to make it not-so-challenging (while still putting up an expected level of #FakeNews challenge).

If a woman is really "challenging" you, I think maybe she's just not that into you.

249 >>>Nobody wants to have to work hard just to get noticed.

there was a girl I liked and I got up the courage to call her and ask her out on a date. Basically, I wound up asking her out barely even realizing I was doing it, because of the way she was talking, like, basically, she was all but saying "We should hang out some time" and I just had to officially ask.

anyway, I have this whole theory that if a girl likes you she makes it very, very easy to ask her out. If a girl is not making it easy to ask her out -- like she's answering questions with one-word yes/no answers (conversation terminators), not asking you any questions, not asking you generally waht you like to do -- these are all designed to AVOID being asked out, as she's decided the answer is no, and she's trying to save you both social awkwardness, so just stop

Again, I go back to the few times I really hit it off with women, and talking to them was not difficult at all. It was almost as if.. they were interested in talking to me.

I think a lot of guys will say a girl is "hard to talk to" and not get that means "she's not interested," or a girl will say a guy is sending "mixed signals" or "has trouble communicating" when in fact his apparent lack of interest is not some accident of communication, but is in fact accurately broadcasting his actual lack of interest.

there is another piece to this though... one I noticed awhile back.

I do online dating, and have for awhile...

About 20% of Women out here in Calif. have some 'if you voted for Trump swipe Left' kind of thing on their profile... and its been that way for about a year...

Its only recently however, that I have seen Women put on their profile 'I voted for Trump, if you have a problem with that, we would probably not be a match'...

What is interesting is one is an out right rejection... one is a warning...

One talks about what YOU did... the other says what I think...

The different approach is very interesting...

True story:

One of my friends was in her 20s when she became romantically obsessed with this guy. Problem was, he was an asexual clueless low-T dweeb whose ability to pick up on not-so-subtle hints was bordering on zero. So she kept manipulating circumstances to get them alone together, and to her great frustration he made NO moves on her ever. She became even more forward, saying "I like you" and so forth, and holding his hand, and leaning her head on his shoulder, and on and on.

Still no response from this loser. And make no mistake: She was actually better-looking as a woman than he was as a man. She was close to being "out of his league."

FINALLY, she arranged things so that they went on a five-day-long trip together to Costa Rica for some academic project. She made sure they stayed in the same hotel room.

STILL nothing from this guy.

So what'd she do? On the fourth night, she literally pulled his pants off and gave him a blowjob, unbidden.

After that, they were "together," but it took him six months (and endless pressure from her) before he finally first referred to her as his "girlfriend."

Short version: if a chick is into you, you will know it.

This.

Same thing with applying for a job. If they want you, they'll make it easy. Why? Because they're afraid that if they don't, you'll walk, and that thought torments them. Women, same thing.

Guys don't understand this sometimes because they're traditionally the aggressor, but think about it from the woman's perspective: if she's interested, but too cold, and you walk, then what? She's got to abandon self-esteem and throw herself at you. Not gonna happen.

Interest = Attention = communication.

If they are actually interested in you... THEY will make the conversation continue... they will be checking for emails or texts... and will respond to yours in a timely manner...

Recently had a weird one... sitting with a Lady, Kissing on her couch... her phone dings for a text... she stops... and answers the text... I politely left... when asked why? I responded 'well, you are apparently more interested in whoever is on that text, than in me... '...

310 Honest to Christ: Roughly 50% of Men have said to me: If I could do it all over again, I'd never get married, never have kids.

I speak the truth. That's what they say.

Posted by: Soothsayer -- Fake Commenter at February 13, 2018 07:52 PM (i+piv)


Well then 50% of the men you know are pussies.

Sorry, just the truth.

Here's a tip, guys: Marry the one you like, not the one you lust after. Lust lasts about, oh, #twoweeks. After that, it's fear and loathing, and all that comes with that.

I married my best friend. I love him madly, moreso every day (except perhaps those days when my good morning is greeted with epic passage of flatus). I will love him til I die, and probably afterward, too.

This leads to great satisfaction, in bed, out of bed, on adventures, in child-raising, in hell-raising, etc.

If it's just sex, yer doing it wrong. And if it's just something else to do, forget about it. Stay single.

his "girlfriend."

But there were more pink chicks who saw no reason to let politics get in the way of romance. (It's not surprising that the latter were MUCH cuter than the former.) I dated many of them, from my HS girlfriend to my wife (since converted.)

I am in the other 50% then. I lost one wife to a divorce after 19 years of marriage.....her call. Was single for a few years and then reconnected with a High School GF and was married to her for 3 years before I lost her to thyroid cancer.

So, I have been married most of my adult life. Some of the time marriage was terrible, but I would not trade having my two daughters for anything.

324 Tom Servo - North Park / Jackson County / Walden is like this in Colorado. A small community moved over there in the 1800s and then stayed there.

When I visited in 2010ish I got to talking with them. It was easy since they didn't see many visitors. They didn't have the retardation that Carlos II had but they had a lot of congenital issues not seen outside that county. Genetic drift is, indeed, a thing.

Well, she has a half-sister, but the half-sister is 15 years older and an insufferable bitch, so I wouldn't recommend her.

This blowjob incident was TOTALLY out of character for my friend. I don't think she's ever done anything even remotely like that before or since. It's just that she became so desperate, she felt it was the only way to smack this guy with a cluebat.

Then it hit me that it's also a metaphor for Germany telling God to kiss off:

I think it's because it closes showing the audience at the club, and I know what's coming, and they don't.

Bottle openers (30-06), and whistles.
Cufflinks and buttons from cut off bases.
Western striing tie sliders.
Certain calibers can be combined, like 20 gauge inside 12 ga, for matchstick containers. Similarly, .223 containing cotton, soaked in lampoil, capped with .22 lr, makes a 'candle'. Try different caliber pairs: .308/9mm, etc. I've seen functional pens and even lighters with parts from discarded bic flics.

Its like how I felt in late 2008 and 2009 when I fully caught on to just how much information the FNM had withheld from me and mis-information they had fed me -- and I had known the media did P/R spinning for the commies, only had never understood before how lock step they are in staying 'on the marxist narrative'.

This is the same friend who let me know that a coworker emailed her hoping saying her hair looked great and hope she had a good week and how awful that was and how it made her feel so creeped out with the #metoo tag.

The human brain craves struggle and stress.


A long time ago, like two decades long ago, a woman done me wrong. This is a love of my life woman, so doing me wrong hurt a lot.

I would drive to work each morning working it over and over in my head how much I was angry with her and I'd seethe in the anger and roll it around in my head.

One day I realized that the anger was a drug. I'd keep going there to get the high off the anger.

But while we slept, the commies decided they could take over the world. Now we have real existential threats to our patriotic notions. The last president seemed to actually harbor dreams from his father, and those dreams were to "kill whitey". Hillary's dreams were to have the bankers own us and run the world.

No wise man has the power to reason away

550 Actually I find anger a useful tool. It has helped make me successful by keeping me competitive, kept me in shape and I have confronted people who needed it and it set boundaries with them. Kept some people from stepping all over me. I think anger gets a bad rap by those who use it for destructive purposes. But hey, different stokes for different folks.

553 Hi Jewells. Take your favorite fudge recipe. Mine is 2 cups sugar, 3/4 cup milk, 1/2 to 2/3 cup cocoa powder boil to softball stage add 2 tablespoons of whisky or other liquor for flavoring (have to boil again after adding) and then add in 4 tablespoons of Nutella or store brand equivalent.

Before adding in the Nutella I grated some zest from an orange and added 2-3 shakes of orange oil.

Online recipes were mostly for the failproof choc chips and sweetened condensed milk fudge with orange zest and 2 tsp of orange extract added but I did find a couple cases of using orange oil which I wanted to use because I had some on hand.

I think it had to do with city people looking down on the country bumpkins. My mom was born in a rural area of Wisconsin, and she said that until they had to move to the city, everyone her age within 20 miles of her was some kind of cousin.


When I look at one branch of my family back in Norway at farms in the vicinity of Mo, Nord-Rana, Nordland, in the 1600s to 1800s, this appears especially to be the case.

An interesting thing, though, was that births that were illegitimate were marked as such in church records. But such births only happened once for the woman. She was by-God married the next time she gave birth, and almost always to the same father as her first child. No serial baby daddies ...

Would you rather have Minions, Acolytes, Devotees, or Henchmen?

Posted by: Soothsayer -- Fake Commenter at February 13, 2018 07:13 PM (i+piv)

Minions and henchmen. They're expendable and you can pick up a dozen at Walmart.

Seriously, on the subject, marriage is great for incredibly shy men like me because it obviates the stress of dating. I can count the number of dates I've had on two hands and they were usually disastrous unless the both of us were liquored up, at which point my shyness is ameliorated. That's BAD. I'm a bloody awful conversationalist--I wish I could communicate by writing all the time--so the conversation would always lag unless she was doing all the talking. It would stress me into a spiral of despair.

So I rarely pursued, which confused women who would come on to me. If I got a divorce tomorrow I would just become a hermit and hang out with the dog and the Horde all the time. Some people are meant for the chase and some people aren't, and I'm in the aren't category.

Posted by: garrett at February 13, 2018 08:48 PM (nIKZP)

--------

The original EOd DACA by the JEF was already completely unconstitutional, as it ordered LE to stop enforcing settled, written law. PDT rescinding it by EO is constitutional, because he alone has that power, written into the Constitution.

Why Donny hasn't told the Circus Court Judge to pound sand and point to our founding document as the basis to tell LE to ignore the Circus Court and follow his order is totally beyond me.

I can only surmise that he is trying too hard (IMO) to do things above board and transparently.

In Virginia...AND they had a kid. The daughter had been given up for adoption. Mom and dad later married and had other kids. First daughter found then when she turned 18. Dad and daughter started getting it on. Dad left mom for daughter and ran away to NC to get married. Mom reported them. They were both arrested and charged with incest and are now awaiting trial where they can be sent to prison for... i think... up to 20 years.

672 You know Ace this is spot on. One really needs to pay attention to the stresses that are real, while not amplifying what they are. It’s difficult to maintain the balance. There is Adrenalin in stress which is quite addicting. This may not be making sense, but as my life has skidded sideways I need to make sure I don’t give in to the stress so that i can focus on the experience of the “win” and recovery.

723 There was a recent study that found out that really overweight (delicately called "plus sized") women don't like to date overweight men.

My cousin married this somewhat plain, odd looking woman. She's nice enough, but is a bit of a headcase, very fragile and brittle although she's getting better. She dreamed of marrying the football captain, the hunky boy.

That's how we are as people; we want better than us, the best possible, and settle for what we can actually attain.

734 well, my advice for dating like the girl discussed earlier in the post, who will disagree with everything you say, is to absolutely and resolutely state at the beginning of the date that you will not, under any conditions, fuck her in the ass because you are the man and you make the decisions.




when the date is over, make sure your parting line is "well, I hope you are happy now."

I'm glad you told me that, now I don't have to worry about seeing it ever.

Having never seen it, let me predict the plot:

1) introduction to misfit gang of people who are supposed to be cool
2) horrible danger threatens everyone
3) weird creepy shit happens
4) even more messed up weird creepy shit happens
5) nonsensical stuff happens.
6) characters do nonsensical things and yell a lot.
7) the end, nothing is tied together.

Perfection is unattainable. As Eddie Murphy said long ago, "Find someone just as fcuked up as you, and settle down"

Trick is, both parties need to realize both parties need to give 100% to it. Measuring by 50/50 will always leave 1 party wanting, in the eyes of th other.

858 Another thing that kind of annoys me in dating profiles... Everyone lists "intelligence" as something you have to have. It makes me feel really bad for people who have an IQ in, say, the 90-95 range.

It's totally possible for someone with a low IQ to be gorgeous and sensible and faithful and happy and kind and good-natured and a terrific cook, and these are all things that I would rate way above "conventional" intelligence in a list of traits I would desire in a woman.

Intelligence is just another trait that some people have, as far as I'm concerned. I was diagnosed (and I use that word deliberately) as a genius when I was a kid, so I don't really have the luxury of demanding equal intelligence in a romantic partner.

I think women use "intelligence" as a euphemism for "wealthy" or "successful", and men use it as a virtue signal. "Oh, I'm not intimidated at all by smart, successful women! In fact, I insist that you be at least my equal in the IQ department! I'm a male feminist!" And the Dunning-Kruger effect makes liberal women of average intelligence think they can, and should try to, live up to that guy's standards.

I don't give a shit if your IQ is 50 points below mine. That's where most people are! If you have what used to be called "common sense", though? That is highly appealing to me!
