I don’t think there’s anything inherently incompatible with being an intellectual and being a sexual being. I’ll prove my point in two words: James Joyce. Who could be more academic and salacious?

I know this thread is over a year old, but I just found it and had to ask…

If Smarties is so intellectual and good-minded, how did he/she find this website? What were YOU searching for that brought you here? Certainly not the pursuit of scholarly advancement!

I think you’re an introvert perv that outwardly suppresses your natural thoughts but secretly you’re a raging sexoholic!

Interesting…And truth be told EVERY woman I see EVERY SINGLE DAY is assessed for her bang-ability score. All very subjective and carnal. Sexy face 1 point. Cute thicker ass (my favorite) 3 points. Nice breasts 1 point. Hair, skin, and her walk each 2 points. I could go on. But the answer is YES…

Ha! This is totally accurate. It also has nothing to do with intelligence. It is hard wired biology. Makes about as much sense as calling people stupid because when they look at delicious food they actually think about eating it for a second or two. Plus there’s a big difference between thinking of something and acting upon it. If there wasn’t we’d all be in jail for “murderous thoughts” by now. So Smartiepants guy needs to just relax and experience life in all it’s glory.

Yes, I’m not sure I see how having a fantasy is necessarily objectifying–unless the fantasy is objectifying in nature (by no means guaranteed). But whatever–fantasies are natural and healthy sexual impulses. We can deny them, like Smarties might prefer, but we all know how good repressing sexual impulses can be. Look at Japan, and tell me you’d rather have a culture where businessmen buy used girls’ underwear from vending machines… vs. an honest, open discussion and non-judgmental allowance for a NORMAL human impulse. Men and women alike feel sexual impulses and have fantasies, and acknowledging them and discussing them is healthy, not “horrible” or “dim-witted”.

And I find this odd: how does finding someone sexually attractive and thinking of them in that way make them worthless in all other ways except in bed? So the converse of that, as an intellectual, Smartie, is that no one ought to find you in the least bit sexually attractive–lest they neglect everything else you have to offer?

Guys (and girls) ARE sometimes “perverted wild dogs”, but that doesn’t mean that’s all they are, all the time. You can have a thought without it being your entire, singular nature.

For god’s sake, Smarties, please salivate over someone like a perverted wild dog every once in a while. Maybe even have perverted wild dog sex every so often, too. Or every night, if that’s your thing. It’s all good. You can still read books and go to dinner parties, and carry on with the intellectual parts of your life–just like the rest of us horrible, perverted wild dogs do.

So, as an intellectual, you’re saying that any man who fantasizes about women is a dimwitted mysoginist? For an intellectual, you have a inordinately intolerant view of the world. Of course, that kind of arrogance is probably bred from the insecurity you have procured from fantasizing about certain men yourself and being hurt that your man could ever possibly fantasize about anyone but you. I mean, being so special, so kind and so bright he would have to be an idiot to have “fantasies” and be “self-fulfilled” and not be “dependent.”

You guys are horrible. As an intellectual, I can tell you right now that this is a ridiculous assumption that portrays every man as being nothing but a overly promiscuous, woman objectifying fiend. Men who are dimwitted and think of women (at least subconsiously) this way are also subconsiously thinking that women are worthless except in bed. And I say dimwitted because these men are insulting the few genuinely great men that are left in the world by making them seem like overly perverted wild dogs that are in constant heat.

I’d be mortified if someone could read my mind at any point during the day, because generally I’m wondering what the guy on the telly looks like naked or whether the guy that just walked past or served me at the till would be any good in bed. I do it with pretty much everyone i meet or someone who catches my eye when I’m out and about. I don’t incorporate them into my alone time though, if i include anyone i know it’s past guys I’ve been with. I think everyone does it, some more than others.
