Rrrreallly setting the bar high, are we?
Kinda bordering a strawman here, but if I said
why are men attracted into the airhead type?
there would be bunch of dudes saying they are into intelligent women, and that it's just hollywood.
(Sidenote props to the artist for drawing all those people one by one)
Zach is like Randall Munroe for people who prefer eyes to not be attached to heads 🤩
Is this an egg meme?
Incelligence is a heck of a term.
Should be word of the decade.
I mean, that's a fun take but realistically there are plenty of women who put a lot more stock in looks (just as men do) an immediate financial ability.
That jock who got a job that's physically demanding might be making more out of high school, but the IT nerd who went for they education and got a good tech job was likely on a slower burn path to self-improvement with better pay, possibly improving looks over time (or at least less of a beer belly). At least before AI started killing the tech sector again, so maybe the jocks will be coming out ahead for awhile.
Also, there's also nothing wrong with being a good dude with average intelligence who works hard. Just don't pick an red-hatred idiot. And intelligent nerds who don't learn social skills can absolutely still become nasty incels.
"Just don't pick an red-hatred idiot" took me a sec to parse.
It's a typo but the intended group still fits! Love it.
Hey... my Pepe folder has been collected and curated carefully for decades
What about the women that is into pepe lore or WW2 theory?
I cant decide if there's more or less of them than the ones that's into 4chan incels?
Taking a wild guess: I feel like there may be a few more women into history than sexism.
What about the women that is into pepe lore or WW2 theory?
They are irrelevant, because they are both Fake and Gay
Can confirm: am a woman named Gayle "Gay" Fake who can't get enough cartoon frog facts and FDR/Göring slash fiction.
Speaking of juicy mammoths, who's the lady in the picture?
Asking the important questions.

Also, this is just plain wrong.
Some women are attracted to intellectual minds.
Some women are attracted to physical strength, some women are attracted to maternal instincts, so on and so forth.
The problem is this question is usually being asked by someone who thinks that responding to every factual statement with an inflammatory counterpoint qualifies as intelligence.
Also, this is just plain wrong.
A greentext that's wrong? Highly unlikely.
Not on this Internet!
The weird definition of intelligence they are using (how to succeed in life) does kind of cover that. The definition of what success is, and the millions of ways of achieving it covers just about all variations.
women are people with choices
they make different choices
Impossible. If women had choices, then they'd have a diversity of off-spring with a wide spectrum of forms, traits, and behaviors.
We know that can't be the case, because all men are identical and perfectly interchangeable, except for a tiny variance in peak performance which they use to sort themselves from Sigma to Omega for the purpose of obtaining Da Big Sequesy to produce more Sigma clones.
So success in life means actual intelligence? I disagree with that.
Success ≠ actual intelligence.
Plenty of very successful people who are complete morons.
Women are attracted to success, regardless of actual intelligence.
Yeah, I'd say humor is the better indicator. It boils down to the ability to connect ideas in creative ways, as well as keeping a longer context window in conversations
It's not a direct 1:1, but what is intelligence really? There's many types, and they're all a combination of domains
It's more that intelligence implies success rather than success implies intelligence.
Actual intelligence boosts chances for success, but it is not required for success.
The way the world is going, intelligence is playing less and less of a factor. You're either born into it, or you're a wage slave struggling for life.
Success looks different for different groups of people, unfortunately. A slave could be considered more successful than another, while remaining a slave.
Intelligence is actually slightly negatively correlated with success by a lot of metrics (earnings, years of life, health) and the best predictors are general big 5 attributes like openness to experience, low neuroticism, high conscientiousness (hard working), and extraversion. Those characteristics are way better predictors of life success.
Do you have any references for this? As far as I know the literature, the debate about "what matters more" is still ongoing with some research arguing in favor of personality and other research in favor of cognitive ability. This research seems to agree that the relationship between cognitive ability and life outcomes is generally positive, and I am not aware of any convincing evidence to the contrary.

What is success? Being surrounded by people you love and trust? Living life without regret? Sitting on hoards and hoards of money? Planting an endangered tree?
It's just correct enough for the tiny quipy descriptor to get to the real takedown after.
Also this is 4chan, grade on a curve.
It's usually “how to succeed in life” intelligence, not “realization of abstract k-skeletons as k-skeletons of intersections of convex polyhedra in R^2k−1 in life” intelligence if that doesn't make you money.
Incidentally it's true. Granted I'm asexual but I'm only attracted to intelligence.
And how do you succeed in life? Step 1 is to have rich parents. The term commonly used for those seeking out people from rich families is gold digger.
If your only measure of success is wealth, that's kind of sad.
It's not, but anyone that tells you wealth doesn't matter, is either lying or trying to sell you something also.
You have already failed. Success is not measured in wealth.
If you are having a good time with friends/family around a fire pit with a total cost of £0. You are succeeding more than the richest man on earth who can't get anyone to genuinely like him.
For those three hours, then they have to pay rent, buy food, pay bills. And try to survive, which wealth makes immensely easier.
But enough about Elon Musk.
If your only measure of success is wealth, that's kind of sad.
Wealth for wealth's sake, possibly, but i'm not gonna start throwing shade at someone else's life goals.
Wealth is , however, a good baseline to build upon to achieve other metrics, up to a point at least.
Metacognition, hot
Cognition, not
Thinking about thinking is just brain masturbation, which is the pinnacle of homosexuality.
