If you put intelligence and wisdom first in the list of things that sexually attract you to a person, the chances are that you will enter the group of sapiosexuals.
It is said that this term has been circulating and discussed for 20 years, but doctors and researchers point out that there are still not enough studies on it. For most studies, sexual attraction is a very diverse topic and cannot be so precisely defined.
A study carried out in 2018, published in the scientific magazine "Intelligence", has revealed that sapiosexuals are not only influenced by the level of intelligence, i.e. IQ.
According to this study, sapiosexuals also consider emotional, cultural and academic intelligence very important. This study greatly expands the term "intelligence" to include gentleness, caring, understanding, quality of character and values ??of the individual. This makes sexual attraction an endless mix of physicality, intellect, emotion and spiritual connection.
Some of the signs that show you are sapiosexual are these:
#1
- Think that having an interesting and/or intellectual conversation is better than casual sex with someone you don't know well.
#2
- You rarely have an instant attraction to someone. Your attraction comes gradually as you get to know the person better and get to "know" their mind.
#3
- People who make grammatical mistakes annoy you, and if you were considering it as a dating option, then you realize they don't write well, give it up.
#4
- Your idea of ??flirting is to suggest good books, movies and music. Anything related to art that is in your common interests.
#5
- You care more about what the person you're dating knows than what he/she has. The financial situation is not primary for you, it is enough to share similar interests and be ambitious for the future.
#6
- You tend to have long-term relationships, as intimacy in a couple is on a whole other level and goes beyond bare bodies.
