Only playboys and dumbboys see intelligent (not smart ladies) as a threat. I personally love intelligent ladies. The only problem mature guys have with such guys is that most of them intelligent ladies don't like to submit themselves to their hubby. If intelligent ladies can get over this attitude, I'm sure brighter days awaits them.
It's not like they can't submit. At work I'm an equal to all the guys BTW I'm the only lady lol.
You don't expect me to show weakness in that kind of scenario. Men will think because you're aggressive and bold at work you'd be proud and controlling at home. It's not like that. Try me first.

Not a scientist but it's the embodiment of inherited physical and psycho/medical features parents transfer to the kids? Inherited traits
If your parents are smart, you're born intelligent.
Can you tell the difference between these adjectives : smart, brilliant, intelligent

I read The Alchemist of recent, still on the high. I want to explore more on Paulo Coelho.
Basically history, literature and psychology. Or you can say sociology

Amakavula:
I hear guys call ladies stupid, potato brains, and Dumb and it worries me. But when they meet a really smart lady. Say, she happens to beat them academic Ally. They would attribute it to " she is probably sleeping with the lecture"
Or do so well in the place of work, it is because she is sleeping with the bosses. If we win election, it's because you let us win. Why are you afraid of a little competition. What really pissed me off was like last week, a guy walked up to a group of girls working on Machine Learning program and dare say " I don't believe your were smart enough for this" like really?

Honestly guys --matured men now-- do you really see ladies as your equal, lets be honest now ?


Please Amaka, I read the first page of your post but didn't find anyone asking you about why you decided to write such a post. I know you mentioned being pissed off about girls being called potato brains but I suspect your reason for the post goes beyond that.

My theory is that it's personal.

Either someone has called you such and it's making you doubt if you can successfully complete that task which you've undertaken (you're losing confidence) or it's just an ego thing for you. Perhaps you consider yourself smart and you're wondering why you don't get enough approval. I think what happened last week, if it did happen, happened to you.

I'm not here to affirm or deny your question or to attack you. (I think you probably have enough answers from *mature* men). My purpose is to look at your post by itself.

I don't know how you define smartness. But while reading your post I was thinking "is this lady writing in anger or is this really how she writes?"
If it is the former, I'll pass. But if it is the latter then I think you may have to rethink your idea of "smartness".

Like it or not there aren't a lot of people who will think you smart after reading your post, especially if you happen to be a graduate.

As for your last line, I think girls could be accused of dismissing what they don't agree with as coming from "immature" guys. Moreover, there is no way a man and a woman can be equal in the mathematical sense. Except perhaps you have a different idea/definition of "equal", in which case I'd be glad if you could share with me.

To summarize:

1. I am not afraid of smart ladies. I love to have doubly smart kids, so I'll marry a smart lady.

2. I haven't seen this widespread brain-dead misogyny a lot of women are complaining about.

3. You ladies should quit seeking everyone's approval. What is it to you if a guy thinks you are sleeping with a lecturer? A girl probably thinks that also. Why do you want to police thoughts? Why are you so desperate to prove you're not sleeping with your lecturer? Why does it bother you in this age when most people, perhaps you, hold dear the thought "I don't care what you think about me"?

TheLordisgreat, it goes beyond that. I'm still permanently pissed at Nollywood because of the way they portray women. It's either they are housewives or they are too career centered. They write scripts as if my mum doesn't work and still hold her home intact.
Intelligent girls don't allow anyone choose their lives for them or allow men with half a brain put them down.
They are passionate about commanding respect because it is not easily given to our kind. It's a psychology thing, men think we want to be equal with them but we just want to carve our own place in life without any dictatorial shadow
