Meh, I don't think on my deathbed I'm ever going to regret appreciating too many fine women in my life.

Yo, I appreciate fine men myself, I just don't go being horny with strangers on the internet and giving weird details about how I paid waaay too much attention to their anatomy or positions.

strangers on the internet

It's a small site, some of us know each other pretty well here. It led to a brief but rather hot convo with u/Vulptex, he's a dude, but nobody's perfect.

how I paid waaay too much attention to their anatomy or positions.

They're memories from 23 years ago, when I was a young guy and in a time before porn was easily accessible online. A glance of panties in high school was a big deal. The other girl is notable because not only are there few female programmers, let alone in the top echelon of a difficult class like machine language, they certainly don't look like models. Brains and beauty in a male dominated profession, the girl was a unicorn. Never ran across any others, not that I know of anyways.

Anyways, I didn't mean to offend you. Apologies if I did.

Go on, you can get even more sexist if you tried. Why would it be strange for a woman to be hot AND smart? And even worse: why would a woman have a harder time studying a difficult class - do you think we're dumber? "Aaaww look at that woman, she managed to accomplish that, almost like a man!"

Yeah, I know I'm humoring a semi-incel here and the smartest thing to do would actually be to back off from this conversation.

I'll play devil's advocate here and say I've definitely noticed an inverse relationship between looks and intelligence. Is that a real difference or a perceived difference? Is it stronger in women than men? That I can't tell you. But I do think there's some credence to the idea that , the more attractive you are, the less value you might see in studying and the more value you'll see in socializing and partying. From the woman's perspective especially I can see the potential allure of forgoing education entirely to subsist off of a man instead and if you've got very good looks you've got an easier time of it and your choice of the bunch. Does that make the woman stupid? Quite the contrary, I think it's a smart move all things considering. But I do think it means you'll have that inverse relationship between looks as "intelligence" or rather book smarts. I don't think it's much different than the stereotype of the highschool jock football player being dumb as rocks.

Course I think some of it is just that the very attractive and smart women are already spoken for and as such don't put so much effort into attracting the attention of men because they don't need it.

Hah, no, I'm a ladies man. I absolutely love women, when they're not driving me crazy. Been with the wife for 23 years, had female internet companions since I was 14. I think we're on number 17 now. Last two died sadly, alcoholics. I love me some fucked up, crazy women.

I try to avoid talking to women irl besides family now, wifie doesn't care about internet women, but irl can be problematic. Best to avoid.

That's another thing men do better, drink. Women's livers give out way quicker. You probably think that's sexist too.

>130 IQs are rare, and even more rare in women than men. Exceptional beauty is also not a common trait, obviously. And particularly in a field that is male dominated, women would also be uncommon.

do you think we're dumber

Most people are dumb. Look around, half of everyone you see is below average intelligence.

I mean, coming from someone who sounds quite deranged, this comment sure is something.

The smartest people in the world are women. But girls aren't pushed nearly as hard as kids, and tend to avoid complicated problems. I think IQ is inborn, but it's also use it or lose it. So there ends up being more men with high IQs, but they aren't as high as those of the fewer women among them.

Because most of the smart ones don't spend 25 hours per day getting dressed.

"Aaaww look at that woman, she managed to accomplish that, almost like a man!"

That's because women aren't usually coerced into provider roles and threatened if they fail. So if she does something it's likely entirely by her own will.

So, natural beauty is not a thing?

But there's always natural beauty plus cultivation.
