Good post Allie

I loved reading all of the guys input, thank you.

Lots of food for thought...and making sure I be my silly self.

I think we need to realize there's a difference between intelligence and education. Some of the dumbest people I know are educated idiots. One of my friends is a well-respected neurologist and has the IQ of a genius and I'm not sure how he ties his shoes in the morning. He's brilliant in his career from what I understand (from others), but in day-to-day living he can barely function.

The smartest man I ever met never went to school past 8th grade. But he continued to read, study and LIVE. He'd been everywhere, done everything and met all kinds of people. I modeled my life after him. He was the type of guy you could drop in a foreign country where he didn't speak the language, had no money in his pocket and he'd be fine. Give him 6 months and he'd thrive. His one goal was to learn something new every day. To never stop learning, never stop living.

As it relates to providers, some are extremely intelligent, if not overly educated. And I could see how they may need to "dumb it down" once in a while so they don't make the guy feel inferior. Some guys may not appreciate that. But I think the ones that aggravate me the most are the ones that THINK they're smarter than everyone, even if they're not. I think the key is, guys will find a girl they're comfortable with and intellect will play a part. Some guys get turned on by a smart girl. Some are turned off. Some it plays no role, others it's important. For me, I like a girl that's reasonably smart, personable and has a good attitude. I know that it's highly unlikely I will see a girl that advertises like "cUm s+Ee <3 Y deY CalL me da PrINC3sS" or some junk like that, regardless of their intellect.

Hi Leilani Bebe. Yep, still alive, and he writes under the pseudonym he took while still working for MI-6. One of the few spy novelists who actually was one.

The reason that I mentioned him is I cannot think of the word "tradecraft" without bringing one of his characters to mind. And if you want to do something on the sly...you need to have good tradecraft.

By the way I love your avatar, how did you know I was a breast man?

All very good and right on the subject.

The women do not need to "dumb it down" to the extent that they seem to be really stupid, just to get attention.
