Sapiosexuality

http://www.unwords.com defines sapiosexual as:

1. (n.) A behavior of becoming attracted to or aroused by intelligence and its use.
Origins: From the Latin root sapien, wise or intelligent, and Latin sexualis, relating to the sexes.
Example: Me? I don't care too much about the looks. I want an incisive, inquisitive, insightful, irreverent mind. I want someone for whom philosophical discussion is foreplay. I want someone who sometimes makes me go ouch due to their wit and evil sense of humor. I want someone that I can reach out and touch randomly. I want someone I can cuddle with. I decided this all means that I am sapiosexual.

I don't think anything has better described my sometimes inexplicable attraction to those most would not consider "attractive". Yeah a pretty face can catch my attention but it won't hold it. What gets me going is the biting sarcasm found in those usually described as "geeks". Slap tattoos on that and I become mush.

Here is a perfect example. I was sent an email by someone in whom I was a little interested, but not overly-interested...until he used the word "predicated". He used it correctly...and spelled it correctly. I swooned and was almost immediately obsessed.

This all comes down to how I descried myself in one of my earlier posts. It adds to my level of easiness. The snarkiness makes me melt. I CAN'T get myself to go for those who are not uber-sarcastic. I have no interest in them at all. So now what?
