Why Don't Girls Want Intelligent Guys? Part 1: The Problem with Intellectuals

Wow, that was a cold ass wake up call, awesome article hector. As a dude who used fit your definition of a nerd perfectly, it's awesome to see someone explain why a dude becomes a nerd and why it's nothing to be proud of. Everything here resonated with me, from the unmanly father, dominant mother, social conditioning that made me a pussy, the osctracization, vain pride of superior intelligence, etc. My father had always been overly feminine and not the kind of man who could turn me into dominant, aggressive man, and my mom has always been more dominant. On top of that, i grew up with a religious upbringing that extolled the virtues of "kindness, gentleness, selflessness", etc., and my parents actually valued my academic achievement above all (surprise surprise, for a brief period of time I was a pussy nice guy and whiteknight). Both of my parents are super intellectual, and i love them but I hate that my upbringing never kicked me in the shin and made me a real man. Thankfully I found girlschase in high school and shook off my pussy conditioning like my life depended on it. However I could never understand why the intellectual aspect of my personality isolated me from regular teenagers, and why other so many popular kids seemed so... unintellectual. I'm still a work in progress, but SO ready to make myself a new man, fuck being "intellectually superior", I want to kill today's me and be reborn. Can't wait for the rest of your articles hector.

"What did I do when I found myself socially excluded, my only reprieve being a class clown, and out-competed by other more developed, aggressive, and dominant men?

I sought dominance elsewhere. I became a bully of the mind. It was my absolute imperative to always be the smartest person in the room."

This sums up perfectly a lot of highly intelligent people who have not taken the time to round their personalities or understand what motivates them. One example at my work: a hyper-effeminate geek of an IQ north of 140, with reams of encyclopedic knowledge, who is grudgingly respected for his expertise but who draws a visceral reaction from people because he cannot help coming across as a know it all who thinks he is smarter than everyone else. You can imagine him at high school with his head shoved down the toilet. He has been at analyst level for 3 years; he is too valuable where he is and too much of a liability to promote (he eagerly does tasks where he gets to demonstrate how smart he is, but people would refuse to work for him if he was a manager).

"He has also not seen any strong examples of aggressive, sexual males taking women, so he doesn’t even know what that would look like. Or, once he does see an aggressive, sexual man, he thinks badly of him for exhibiting “wrong” or “unreasonable” behavior."

These types often seek refuge in being gamma male orbiters and emotional fluffers of women, typically low SMV ones. It gives them finally a sense of place and belonging where they can rail against a common 'enemy' - men of higher SMV. Particularly intellectual types buy into the campus academic culture at university which is strongly based on leftist/liberal politics and extreme feminism. As a result they have no real world, first hand of experience of women responding in a sexual manner to them.

Other factors which mess them up is their tendency to think logically and rationally in the wrong circumstances, thinking too much in terms of detail and nuance instead of raw big scale qualitative characteristics (e.g. focusing on a big vocabulary instead of saying what they say with strength etc.) but you'll priobably cover those in your next article.

this is awesome, you are hiting the marrow!

Excellent article. My father was charismatic and worked hard, but never confronted me as a kid. He spoke through my dominant/controlling mother. So I am a hybrid of nerd/conqueror. I do need to work on my dominance which is what brought me here.

Some memorable quotes from this article:

His social conditioning keeps his sex drive at bay with shame and morality.
^^^Christianity in a nutshell. A religion I was subject to as a child, but have since moved away from due to the system of control.

Then, add onto this fear the actual inability to satisfy his sexual urges, because his “moral” behavior can't compete with the aggression of the other guys... who... somehow... get women!
^This really got me as a kid.

The only value of intelligence is in how you use it and how you demonstrate it.
^Sums up a master marketer and politician and my career. There have been many smarter people than me. I was just able to get an in with networking. I've beat and talked to those I've beaten for jobs with far more experience than me. I was just able to get in the right place at the right time and demonstrate enough of the right skills.

You can be a smart son of a bitch, but if your ability to market your intelligence is eclipsed by your actual intelligence and the vanity of being clever, you're going to be one of those fellas we only care about a few hundred years after you die. Maybe.
^Truth. Humility, while seen as a soft trait, has allowed me to still be super smart and not fall into the trap of falling in love with my own voice. I have intelligence. End of story. It will take different skills to get what I want.

I feel like you just live for women.
It's great that you have goals for your life in the form of women, money, power, bla bla bla, but it should not be at the cost of respect to other people and basic human decencies, and general morality.
There are other beautiful things and kindness in this world you can live for and appreciate.
Whatever goals you achieve, when you die it's all pointless. So, really there is no reason to be either good or bad. You can be the most selfish man in the world and just take whatever you want, and when you die, it's all history.
But some of us has conscience, not necessarily due to lack of father figure, but on the contrary, one could argue that watching their fathers has made them realize how bad and ugly these behaviors are.
All I see in the article is a man without conscience trying to justify his behavior.
Your observations are spot on, though. Women do appreciate bad boys and reward aggressive men more than what they claim about good man. And they'll keep populating the world with these men until they are the ones who gey hurt, then they start complaining all men are pigs, and wonder why there are so much war and plundering and raping going on in the world.
