Smart Men, Dumb Women

A "smart" woman asks smart men why they date dumb women.

I think the guy makes some good points:

As Carney put it, "dumb chicks have both greater opportunities and greater incentives to try harder to date smart men than smart women do."

to which the interviewer (ie smart woman) responds:

Lapin goes on to dismiss the idea that men are interested in less intelligent women: "You guys think you want that, until you're bored to tears and melt her plastic bits. Until you need to take her to a State dinner and she can't smile her way out of it. Until you lose your Wall Street job and she still doesn't understand what you do enough to help you through it, as a partner, an equal, much less stand by a poor guy."

What a hag. First, she asks the question and rather than actually listening to the answer, dismisses it to fill in with her own answer. Further, she assumes less-smart=plastic. Here's another theory - women who define themselves as "smart" rather than say, caring, kind, pretty, pleasant, of good character, supportive, friendly, or any other adjectives which are better determiners of good relationships - may have trouble finding men because they suck. My theory on this stuff - be cool - look good - don't be crazy - and you'll do fine, chicks. Be bitchy, self-pitying, confusing, weird, needy, cold and you'll have trouble, even if you scored high on the SAT.
