Men Seem Less Intellectually Interesting These Days. by Nobody: 10:04pm On Aug 10, 2014 |
Just thinking out loud. In my opinion guys generally are getting quite lazy these days, when it comes to having quality and intelligent conversations with the opposite sex. They seem to just hide behide social media tools. Can't remember the last time I had a thought provoking decent conversation . Other than, wassup, what r u up to blah blah #randommusing 10 Likes |

It depends on the calibre of guys you roll with.There are tons of male intelligentsias around.It just takes like-mindedness and maturity to locate them. They aren't always lousy and loud as the not-really-intelligent ones. Smart guys tend to be calm,composed,matured and unassuming.They don't pride upon their intellectual prowess. Maybe you should try out new guys,leave your circle/environment and strike friendship with new guys. And sometimes in life,like attracts like.So I hope you're also intellectually sound. Good luck in your search. 17 Likes |

Can you blame the guys? What are we faced with everyday on your display pictures? Sensual, half _naked photos and yet you want us to discuss intellectually. You want make our brain knock? We can't keep switching its focus every now and then. disclaimer: I'm typing nonsense and I know. 5 Likes |

Dygeasy: Can you blame the guys? What are we faced with everyday on your display pictures? Sensual, half _naked photos and yet you want us to discuss intellectually. I think you and the OP both have a point... so you are not typing nonsense. At the rate that females post half naked pics of themselves on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook etc... it will be hard for a guy to have a meaningful conversation with them. First impressions matter and pretty much what you are telling a guy is there is nothing to you apart from your big ass or big boobs.... I mean on the other hand, good conversation goes both ways... its kinda messed up that society nowadays expect the guy to always be the one to initiate the conversation, it should be equal. Ok I am done 4 Likes |

Intelligent conversations, doesn't have to be News,or current affairs , it's about making an effort to seem interesting, even if your just talking about agege bread. Like I said pple prefer to press there phones than actually talk . |

I tend to agree with u@ o.p.. but d oda fellow does make an interesting point. A good discourse is like pingpong; d beta u get, d beta ur return.

Well there's also another aspect to it, take me for example 90% of my posts are on Programming, Matured talks and others, you see that's generally the way I talk when the conversation calls for intellect, but seriously if you see when I chat with babe's, I tend to dumb it down considerably, because a lot of girls find guys like you mentioned boring, its not our fault, am chatting with a babe exposing her cleavage it already tells me the type of conservation to engage. And I keep saying everything on NL is a facade, you'd be surprised the poster who posts rubbish on NL could an enlighten dude who is just embracing a fake persona. Till you really sit down and chat with people honestly on issues you will be surprised in what each guys have to offer. Also try changing the guys you roll with. 1 Like |

how do you reply the guys when they try to chat with you? Some gals do not know how to keep a conversation lively, both online and offline. how do you reply someone who asked you "how are you" with "kk" and expect him to talk to you again? you will always have someone to talk to if you are not annoying and boring. Guys don't have time for pointless conversation, if it won't lead to anything then it is not worth discussing. 3 Likes |

Re: Men Seem Less Intellectually Interesting These Days. by ayando(m): 1:48pm On Aug 11, 2014 |
Is funny that a lady is saying this when majority of them seem to be less interesting to chat with. Most times, you guys just sit back and wait. Secondly I think some or most ladies are just selfish with their time n intelligence except if you are either dating them or they are getting smtin from you. This is an experiment I carried out and the result was positive. Caveat: my opinion. |
