What is sapiosexuality?

It means to be sexually attracted to intelligence above other qualities. In reality it's just a pretentious attempt at making yourself sound intellectual.

Normal Person: Hey that girl is cute! I'm gonna go talk to her.
Douchebag: Oh, her? I struggle to find her attractive because she is substantially less educated than I am. I'm not saying I'm too good for her, its just a fact: I'm sapiosexual.

Sapiosexuality - what is it?

In short, sapiosexual can be defined as someone who is attracted to the intelligence that another person displays. In other words, sapiosexuals are aroused by smart people. Interestingly enough, though someone can be physically attractive, if they appear to be "empty-headed," so to speak, then it's an instant turn-off to the sapiosexual. When it comes to sapiosexuals, it's what's on the inside that matters the most. You could be the best-looking person in the room, but a sapiosexual will only be interested in you if you meet their standards in terms of intelligence.

What does "sapiosexuality" mean?

Sapiosexuals claim to be sexually attracted to their definition of intelligence. It's a new term that usually means you're attracted to someone who is able to explain things like scientific theories or philosophy or write poetry. It's basically whatever their specific idea of intelligence is.

This is more accurately labeled as a preference since sexual orientation refers only to the genders that you are attracted to. It does not include a concept like intelligence, which can't be clearly defined for every person.

A person who likes writers is not a scribosexual, a person who likes lawyers is not a jurosexual, and a person who loudly proclaims that they only date smart people might be dangerously full of themselves, but theyโ€™re not a โ€œsapiosexual. -Samantha Allen

Sapiosexuality - what does it mean?

A shibboleth used by poseurs attracted to the appearance of intelligence rather than actual intelligence. People genuinely attracted to intelligence know that the word โ€œintelligenceโ€ is derived from the Latin โ€œintelligereโ€; that the Latin participle for wisdom is โ€œsapiens,โ€ not โ€œsapioโ€; and that the Latin โ€œsapioโ€ means something that tastes good.

I totally identify as a sapiosexual so I find that guy with the bowler hat and handlebar mustache banging out his screenplay at the coffee shop on his Royal typewriter while sipping his no-foam, decaf, soy latte and stroking his monkey totally hot. What? No, seriously. Heโ€™s got a for real monkey. He must be smart.

Sapiosexuality - meaning

One who finds intelligence the most sexually attractive feature.

"I want an incisive, inquisitive, insightful, irreverent mind. I want someone for whom philosophical discussion is foreplay. I want someone who sometimes makes me go ouch due to their wit and evil sense of humor. I want someone that I can reach out and touch randomly. I want someone I can cuddle with.

I decided all that means that I am sapiosexual."

Sapiosexuality

One who finds the content's of someone else's mind to be their most attractive attribute, above and before their physical characteristics. From the Latin root "sapien", meaning wise. The term is now becoming mainstream with dating apps such as OkCupid and Sapio giving users the ability to define their sexual orientations as "Sapiosexual."

For many, defining oneself as Sapiosexual is also a statement against the current status quo of hookup culture and superficiality, where looks are prized above all else.

"Give me a deep conversation or a passionate debate over brainless beauty any day. Someone who makes me reconsider my long-held beliefs and challenges my mind is a person I can easily fall for. There is no doubt that I'm a sapiosexual."

Sapiosexuality

Where the Dunning-Kruger effect and the bedroom collide. An alleged sexual orientation for people whose assessment of their own intelligence is far in excess of that of any reasonably objective observer, with the added benefit of making one a soi-disant minority, presumably an oppressed one.

People who describe themselves as "sapiosexual" usually define "intelligent" as "sharing my biases" rather than, you know, "intelligent". Given the first paragraph, this invariably means they're attracted to people as arrogant as them, who they run off with and have a clutch of horrible, spoilt children with who grow up into horrible narcissistic adults.

Furthermore, all it means is they're attracted to people similar to them, making the term fairly tautological to begin with.

In practice, "sapiosexuality" is in fact dickosexuality.

I decided all that means that I am sapiosexual.
