perhaps she's husband to be nd vice versa, a lady who's too smart will always checkmate the guy nd this will make the relationship too hot and unbearable
for the guy except if the guy wont show trait of man which is domineering.
A man would always be a man. What's the meaning of a lady being too smart? A guy who is worth his onions would control his lady no matter her superior intelligence.

thank you very much jare dey think they will not be able to handle her that's why their children usually dull (mumu Marry mumu)
Lol @mumu marry mumu. When girls say they can't marry a guy who is shorter than them, it's for a reason. Same should be applied to smartness. Iron sharpens iron.

I'm sorry buh the guys above me who think the op is right are less than smart or smart by half.
I was attracted by my gf's smartness, she is very smart and intelligent. To say the least, we're talking marriage already.
It's dull guys who feel threatened by smart girls
Your a real nigga smiley

Probably the reason we have many unintelligent persons in the society. I am happy my Dad married a smart and intelligent woman; who gave birth to smart and intellectual kids. The relationship between smart persons is one that should defy the laws of physics.

Smart people should get married and populate the world. I would rather be an Enucnh than marry an unintelligent, unintellectual and dumb girl.


P. S. Mark Zuckerberg married a smart medical doctor. Eduardo Saverin married a data analyst. If you're a smart and intelligent woman, I urge and implore you to marry a smart and intelligent man and vice versa.

MrsPhyno:
Lol...... Why are u tagging my people eh grin

@bolded left her intellect at the door? So she was walking around her house like a complete mumu? grin And everyone should "leave their achievements at the door" of their house. Kanye West is just a husband to Kim K grin and Dangote is just a father to his children
RedCapCheif sounds like a male chauvinist. I don't think marriage or a relationship is meant to kill potential, it should complement potential and make both couples better.
This is a wake up call to them guys, develop yourselves, desire and pursue after knowledge for knowledge (not male machismo) is power. Dont spend all your free time on nairabet or nairaland or watching premiership. Read, read, and read more.

shockwave91:
so dey shud be dull then... Cool


Lord knows i won't marry a dunce. Amen
most uneducated (and even some educated) igbo men(especially anambra men) prefer to marry a 'dunce'. thats y u will hardly see them marry someone who went to a higher institution cos they believe more education will make a woman non-submissive, too exposed and smarter than them..
thats y they prefer to marry village girls who at most stopped schooling at SS3..
They like a woman who they can tell to put her hands into a burning fire and she will gladly do it without asking d man why she must do such thing..
I remember an illiterate igbo man telling me this in igbo language last month when he asked me what next and i told him i am planning to do my masters..He said "i would hav married u but u went to d university, u better stop wasting ur time going for any masters and make sure u travel home this december(and stay till january) so that u might be lucky enough to find a husband among d men that will come home looking for a wife'

There is a difference between being smart and being an "I too know".
Men love smart women but hate ITKs.

My last girlfriend was a dumb beauty. I always had to do the thinking for the two of us.

Smart, single ladies are a serious turn on for me. The qualities kind of rub off on you.

of course,sabi sabi too know girls will not have a happi marriage.thas jus pure common sense..check out quenn ester,for 30 days as pretty as she is ,the king kept her away for 30 days and yet they live in the same palace and she dey content.

Esther 4;10
Then Esther spoke to Hathach and ordered him to reply to Mordecai: 11"All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces know that for any man or woman who comes to the king to the inner court who is not summoned, he has but one law, that he be put to death, unless the king holds out to him the golden scepter so that he may live. And I have not been summoned to come to the king for these thirty days."…

The clever girl will start raking,will go to nairaland to shout and to a lawyer to start divorce or confront him or start swapping nudes and arrange extra Bleep.

If we can ascertain that there's a correlation between being smart and insubordination, then the argument may hold true. However, this argument might be predominantly correct in the western world, suffice to say NOI, late Prof Akunyili,embattled Dezani Maduke , Ademosuns of this world are all smart women and are successful married and still submissive.

Low self esteem! Really bad...

Who wouldn't value a smart lady? You make crucial decisions together. . She knows almost everything about the house and can take charge in your absence.. you can leave ur house for days and be sure it's in safe hands...

You guys need to grow up... even ladies are attracted to smart guys.. God knows I wouldn't have married my husband if he was 'dumb'... wouldn't even hv been attracted to him in the first place...

You can go for a dumb partner if you're dumb yourself though grin

peppyluv02:
Tell them...
They want the cook and dry cleaner who will always nod her head like an agama lizard to what ever he says. Their mothers are living in pain and tolerating every nonsense from their fathers,she can't express herself or help in decision making in the home and they think the woman is enjoying meanwhile she is dying silently..

The foolish women agreeing are the ones who live in misery all through their life with the lowlife they call husband and when they die,their ghosts starts writing letters from the grave and sending to Linda ikeji.....mad people.

Respecting your husband is different from being a dumb woman.
God bless u sister..i see this same thing happening around me...the women are not happy in their marriages but they bear it silently without complaining...this is very common in igbo marriages...a yoruba woman will speak up or dump ur ass if she is not happy in d marriage..but what do igbo women do? stay in unhappy marriages without complaining even for once till they die!..
There was this igbo woman who gave birth to 7 girls, no boy( and u know d most important child in igbo land is a boy)....as at when she delivered d 7th child, she almost died and d doctor warned her not to try getting pregnant again cos her womb was very weak...but guess what, this woman's husband talked her into getting pregnant again, telling her it might turn out to be a boy..the woman agreed and got pregnant..and guess what, she died while pushing d baby...the funniest thing is that the man got himself another wife not up to 3mnths after his former wife died...
women should stop being dumb just because u want to be an obedient wife and also because u want to keep ur marriage...May God help us

Confessng:
Actually true.
See a smart woman thinks she knows too much and finds it difficult to put her smartness aside to be submissive and there cant be two captains in a ship
Modified
There is a difference btw smart ,smarter and smartest they are gradations of the same word,no one is asking for a dunce,smart women can be submissive ,smarter women may try probably read up on how to be in a relationship and not be sandpaper to your partner but very smart women? They believe they know it all and want to play the what a man can do a woman can do better card.....

I'm which case they forget that their roles male female roles are different and the power of a woman lies in her being a woman not in struggling for head with a man , no be where neck turn head go go ?

Meanwhile Oga Seun when are we converting our Nairaland likes and shares to Nairaland shares ooh less than a month old with this moniker and am running on 680 likes cheesy
Jus kiddn
Salute Boss
That's not true. I find smart women more attractive. Being smart and an insufferable know-it-all are 2 different things. Smarter girls are more attractive.

Now that's correct cool

hedonistic:
Even as an intellectual (without meaning to sound immodest), there is something immensely anti-seductive and unsexy about a supposedly 'smart' woman.

A voluptuous bimbo gets the dick supercharged every time..

Maybe it has much to do with the absence of protean fluidity in most women who think that they are smart. I can easily blend into a gathering of idiots and vulgar plebeians in a local beer parlour just as easily as I can engage sharp dudes in robust intellectual discussions in an upscale environment. But 'smart' intellectual women would speak fake 'Queen's English' even to their suya man, just as they would defiantly explain to me why Mouth Gig is unhealthy or why doggy style is demeaning. Who has time for such bullshit? Certainly not me.

Why do most men complain about almost everything women possess is it that they are jealous of us?
Re: Ladies, The Smarter You Are, The More Likely You Are To Be Single? by Z8(m):
Absolute rubbish!! and any man that believes this is just insecure. there are smart ladies that aren't respectful. But not ALL smart ladies lack respect. There is a difference between intelligence and ego. Yes an intelligent woman will less likely subject herself to abuse and maltreatment... but let me ask you a question are you already planing to maltreat/abuse your wife from the get go? Is that why you require your wife to not be an intelligent smart woman? grin grin
Re: Ladies, The Smarter You Are, The More Likely You Are To Be Single? by prideofscience(op): 10:31am On Dec 02, 2015
yap, a dull can smart.... but to be intelligent is d key to all
abbey621:
A person who is intellectual is completely different from a smart person. Most of us don't realize this simple mistake. A woman intellectually brilliant than her peers might find it difficult to settle down but a smart woman will always reason her way to the altar.

E.G- An intellectual woman- SAT score of 1950, I.Q score 125 or more, First class undergraduate degree, Suma Cum Laude Graduate degree would definitely not want to settle with an average joe!

A smart woman- graduated university with 2.2, had 3 different boyfriends in school after serving NYSC became more religious and because she's got a hot body and appealing personality is about to be married to a rich oil tycoon, engineer or politician. Life is all about perspectives!

So what else can attract a lady to me than her smartness and intelligence? Keep such absurd generalization to yourself I beg...
Re: Ladies, The Smarter You Are, The More Likely You Are To Be Single? by Nobody: 11:05am On Dec 02, 2015
If she is smart, then she is more likely to have better opnion and outlook on things. What if you were on a team project, would you insist on your stupid plan over a better oneundecided

Who ever must have written that rubbish must have suffered from a very low self esteem.
Re: Ladies, The Smarter You Are, The More Likely You Are To Be Single? by pawpawpaw: 11:36am On Dec 02, 2015
I think a smarter lady for me could be a nice turn on. Although people thinking are different.
