Yes, this is it. This is the reason I'm terminally single. It's because I'm too smart!!!

well, cognito ergo solo has always worked for me - I think, therefore I'm single!

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Bwahahaha. Too true. :)

[obeisance.livejournal.com]

You're terminally single? o_O

... sucks, doesn't it? =p

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

No, it doesn't really. Not for the most part.

I think that maybe they put too much emphasis on men not wanting to be in a relationship with smart women, and not enough on smart women not wanting to be in crap relationships...

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, I figure that's why I'm single. I'm just picky. LOL!

[jakie-em.livejournal.com]

that is a point. I think we have learnt from the mistakes of our mothers that it is better to die alone than put up with crap.

I'm not stooooopid!

*sobs*

You are smart and talented! You need to find someone who loves you for both these qualities. Any man who doesn't accept these in you doesn't deserve you.

I'd like to believe this too ... It would explain my single status and total lack of a boyfriend, which is fine. I'm cool with my independence.

[azinazelle.livejournal.com]

I kind of enjoy it. I have time for ME! ; )

[azinazelle.livejournal.com]

Picky is GOOD. I've met several unhappily married women who regret they went down the aisle.

[azinazelle.livejournal.com]

Too true.

[nicoli-dominn.livejournal.com]

See, that's what other women are for. Men too stupid? Date women. ::nods::

[commanderteddog.livejournal.com]

Woo Hoo! Finally an explaination! This also may explain why the male multimedia students are scared crapless by me. *nodnod*

Ha! I'm never going to lower my standards. Honestly, why would I be stuck with somebody with that low of Intelect. I'm just 14 and I know already finding the right girl is going to be a serious challenge.

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

No, just damned lucky, I think. :) From the sounds of your boys, you'd be mad not to keep 'em. :)

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you're Miss Book-Writing Chick of Awesome Brains and stuff. *nods*

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Total me time. It's great.

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Really? That's totally sad. :T

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. Though I find most of the women I dig aren't looking for relationships either. We keep getting naughty when we're horny and remain friends the rest of the time. It's an odd situation! *lol*

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah. Speak your mind and actually know shit about something? Men run away screaming. *nod nod*

[logansrogue.livejournal.com]

You're not wrong. Finding the right *anyone* is a serious challenge. I've been at it for years and I've had no luck. Doesn't help that I'm quite an unusual and overly creative woman, which lowers my chances quite a lot. Just you keep looking for the clever ones, my man. *hugs*

[azinazelle.livejournal.com]

Awww. *blushes* Thanks babe. Tonight writing is not too fantastic, but gotta keep trying right?

[azinazelle.livejournal.com]

And me time equals fantastic songs, fic and art. More me time for you!

[azinazelle.livejournal.com]

Yeah, kinda sad. Either that or a lot of American husbands suck, but I can't imagine Aussie ones are of much different stock.

[fyrdrakken]

Yeah, that's what I figured when I read the article, that it was rather heavily weighted towards "Men want to marry Suzy Homemakers!" and only barely mentioned in passing that smart women often found men too boring to have relationships with, not that smart women may have noticed that marriage remains a set up based on underlying expectations regarding women becoming adjuncts (if not chattel) of their husbands. (I'm reminded of my cousin's wedding a few months back, where the pastor really hammered home the Biblical bit about women submitting to their husbands and only briefly touched upon the responsibility of said husband not to be a jerk about how he treated his wife.)

[fyrdrakken]

The really depressing part is that, paired with the way stupid people are currently outbreeding the smart ones for various reasons (many of them having to do with smart people using birth control and stupid ones not bothering), if the smart men are marrying dumber women and the smart women aren't marrying then we're not exactly countering the devolution of our intelligence as a species.
