Sapiosexuality
» Richard Evans Lee
The latest coinage for sexual preference that I've run across. I'm sure there are hundreds but I'm in no rush, might as well enjoy or mock each one in its own time.
Sapiosexual people are attracted to intelligence. A laudable orientation but sounds hard to live up to. I enjoy and admire intelligence; sadly that hasn't shaped my sexuality. If anything I have a weakness for silly guys. Intelligent eyes are arousing, especially in a woman.
If sapiosexuality were the norm we'd be a happier race. But I suspect the sapiosexual will always remain a minority.
I developed this a little more in my personal weblog: Sapiosexual

Comments
I would consider myself a sapiosexual. However, the way I look for intelligence is sometimes bound to how their intelligence is manifested through their style, dress sense, physical attributes, and behaviour.

I once heard Hillary Clinton say that she had started a conversation with Bill Clinton the day they had met and it was still going…what a perfect explanation of sapiosexuality!
