Intelligence as a prerequisite?

Not so much intelligence measured in IQ points or qualifications, rather wit, wisdom, a certain sharpness of intellect and an ability to hold a conversation that can fly off into tangents of obscurity...

An absence of original thought, no cultural reference points in common, repeating others parrot fashion or taking on the mannerisms or catchphrases of others just leave me cold...:cool:

... and you have superb breasts. ;)
 
Without an intellectual connection, it's just fucking

That's pretty much what I was going to say. You can have completely satisfying sex with someone regardless of their intellect but in the cold light of day how long is that actually going to stay with you. Even a one might stand without decent conversation feels pretty empty once the hangover wears off! Lol

Absolutely agree. I don't believe that intelligence is pre-requisite but anything long term is going to need a partner of equal or higher intelligence then yourself to give depth to the experience.

I have often found that the more intelligent the person is the more diverse, hedonistic and deviant the sex normally is ... and I do like a bit of deviance ;) The fetish is often weirder too but that could just be the people I attract :D

Who is Roberta Flack?

Google will be my friend!

Edit: Oh 70s! I missed those.
 
If there is one thing I am stupid about it is music. It has never really interested me, so I pretty much don't know anything before 1980 :D

That's a shame cause some of the best music was before the 80's ...

I know of Elvis and Tom Jones, but that is because when I was growing up my mother was obsessed with them, still is.

That obsessed she dragged the whole family to Graceland when I was ten, then spent the whole week crying at his headstone.

My parents divorced shortly after that. :rolleyes:
 
Ironic, wouldn't you say?

Wouldn't say Ironic as such. Not knowing who someone is who stopped being famous way before I was born is more a general knowledge, rather than intelligence issue by my reckoning. I distinguish between general knowledge and intelligence. :D

I know some people, my old almost father in law for example. Knew every little fact about anything to do with quizzes. He wasn't that intelligent though and definitely couldn't hold a conversation.

My mother had a friend who cried solidly for a week when he died...I couldn 't imagine being that attached to someone I'd never known...
 
I actually quite like This version myself:D

I actually sat through that movie when I was chilling out with a lady friend of mine last weekend. I actually laughed at some points. Hugh Grant things are not usually my thing though.

Saw that lad in X men before I saw this film as well I was pointing him out to be Hank McCoy. She had no idea.

I was not questioning your intelligence, I just found it to be ironic that you didn't know something and posted it in a thread about intelligence.

No slight intended.
