(CR!S) A Sapiosexual is one who finds intelligence the most sexually attractive feature.<\/p>\n

“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.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Traditionally the attraction to intelligence, however it can also be extended to the attraction of proper, full sentences and the use of grammar.<\/p>\n

Do I read the Toronto Sun? No, I am a total sapiosexual, I like sentences, paragraphs and grammar.<\/p>\n

Now that you know, Sapiosexual is something you put on your dating profile if you want to be pretentious.<\/p>\n

But wait, is Sapiosexual a real thing? According to The Daily Beast, Sapiosexual\u2019 has to be one of the stupidest sexual \u2018identities\u2019 to come along in years.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

In the late \u201990s we collectively endured the \u201cmetrosexual,\u201d a completely unnecessary term for a man who shaves and dares to have a few pastels in his wardrobe. And in the past couple of year, we have watched the rise and fall of the \u201clumbersexual,\u201d<\/a> a completely unnecessary term for a man who doesn\u2019t shave and wears flannel.<\/p>\n

Could Sapiosexual really mean to say a \u201cbisexual guy who\u2019s into smart people\u201d. The latter has too many syllables, so is Sapiosexial a bogus sexual orientation instead.<\/p>\n

According to the American Psychological Association (APA) sexual orientation as \u201can enduring pattern of emotional, romantic and\/or sexual attractions to men, women or both sexes.\u201d<\/strong> These patterns of attraction, they further note, are cross-cultural, exist on a \u201ccontinuum\u201d and can give rise to a \u201csense of identity\u201d or \u201ccommunity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy cynical suspicion is that most sapiosexuals are generally defining intelligence as owning a copy of Infinite Jest<\/i>, not <\/i>owning a television, and generally feeling just a little<\/i> bit superior to the rest of the world,\u201d writes Emily McCombs at xoJane.<\/p>\n

But the worst thing about sapiosexuality might be that it is redundant when smart is already considered sexy. Idioms like \u201cthe brain is the largest sex organ\u201d aren\u2019t aspirational or baseless\u2014intelligence already enjoys a privileged place in our erotic economy.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

We don\u2019t need a special word\u2014especially one modeled after minority identity labels like \u201chomosexual\u201d and \u201cbisexual\u201d\u2014to describe a completely normative facet of human attraction. In the modern world, identifying as sapiosexual has about as much semantic utility as claiming that you are kind-sexual, dependable-sexual, or rich-sexual.<\/p>\n
