After scattering his grandfather's ashes all over Europe, Jeremy finally returned to the land of perpetual sunshine. Having been away forever, he decided the one thing he had to do was to wake me up from my beauty sleep and ask me to go clubbing. Also, he needed to be filled in on the happenings of my past couple of weeks - aka Roy.

cunning linguist.
Me likey! Very very much :) It's amazing that after all that's been said back and forth between me, my friends, and perhaps even Roy - Jeremy summed up what everyone was pondering upon - was there a direct link between intelligence and sexual attraction?
Is smart the new sexy? Edwin seems to agree, he seeks out smart women (who are hot as well).
Also, on this issue, Clara brought up the theory of procreation - men seek women more likely (able) to procreate: dark shiny hair, rosy cheeks, big dilated pupils, red lips, all signs of being healthy; while women seek men who are able to provide stability in procreation - financial stability, emotional stability, which all point to maturity and intelligence.
If that theory is in fact true, then men are still superficial, men are still visual creatures who go for looks, men still don't really care for intelligence, and most importantly - men are still men. Where then, does intelligence come into the picture?
On the bright side, (still holding true to that theory) women are moving past materialism to increase their list to include intelligence and maturity. If men are still men, then women are still women (with higher standards now).
Therefore, as a woman, I agree - smart IS the new sexy. But for most of the men out there, perhaps smart just smart and sexy is still very sexy.
P/S: Welcome home, Jeremy. You're really smart & someday you'll be sexy too, kiddo :P
