You may be asking what this question is doing in a pre-medical forum, but I would like to ask this because I would like to reference my pre-medical "competition" peers. I will explain:

I have to admit that this may be a bit sexist, and I am sorry that I perceive things this way:

I find dumb women more attractive because because they make me feel smarter and more able to take care of my girl. It boosts my ego to think that I am superior to my woman. "Dumb" can also come across as innocent and naïve. Beautiful women with innocent mannerisms and traits can attract the attention of me quickly.

I do not have a girlfriend and it is because of that reason. I need to be superior in every way which is impossible considering I can't be better at everything someone else is, But never-mind my problem. I want to know who else feels at least a atom's weight the same!

I do not feel attracted to my pre-medical female peers. I feel that they are way to smart to be with me. Many have asked me on a date because we always hang out and study together, take the same classes etc. I have denied them all. I just don't feel even remotely attracted to them because I feel that they are equally intelligent and not inferior. There is something about inferior women that makes me attracted to them.

So when I pursue my future medical school goals, I feel like I will have zero attraction to everyone. Imagine a world where you are not even remotely sexually attracted to anyone?! very depressing. a.k.a medical school--I don't want to be in that kind of environment. And medical school and most hospitals are filled with these unattractive women. I would rather date a nurse than a female doctor.
I am just wondering do any other men feel the same way? especially my pre-medical/medical peers?

In general, yes. As long as they are not dumb and opinionated or too assertive.

Who says you are limitted to only dating pre-meds or med students? I think you have a superiority complex that you'll need to get over. I'm more attracted to girls that are more attractive - whether or not they happen to be dumber girls or smarter girls is unrelated
 
I've met a higher volume of dumb/attractive women than intelligent/attractive women, but in general intelligence is an attractive feature.

Reading this, I think you may despair of ever finding a woman who is less intelligent than you......
 
Girls who are smart and know it can get quite annoying. In fact, it is the smart girls who quickly become insecure about their own intelligence if their boyfriend is also smart. They either think they're smarter than you and treat you like an idiot, or they know you're smarter and end up being very passive aggressive about it, despite claiming that it doesn't bother them.

If a girl is both attractive and smart, then likely she has grown being constantly pursued by both smart men and *******es alike, and has therefore developed an inflated yet fragile ego that can be very unattractive and unnerving. These girls, although perfect externally and seemingly internally, tend to be more trouble than they're worth.

Don't fall for one. It hurts.

You want a girl who is just smart enough to appreciate how smart you are. No more, no less.

I feel like I connect with those people more-so than pre-law majors for example. I don't know why I am so choosy.

This was painful to read...hahahahaha!

Something to think about OP, have you thought about how your future girl (if you ever got one) would feel if she knew that one of the main reasons you are with her is because you feel she is dumber than you?

I see a lot of "I want her to be like this" and "I want don't want her to be like that" Makes me wonder if you are talking about a person who might have her own expectations which you might not exactly be meeting...

God no. I think its pretty sexy when a girl is as smart/smarter than me. Its a very equal relationshp.
 
Are dumb women more attractive than smart women? No.
Are attractive women dumber than unattractive women? Yes.

disclaimer: usually
 
No I am the opposite. Intelligence is vital for me.

I have never thought of it that way. Thanks for mentioning that. I agree that girls who are smart definitely have an inflated and fragile ego and they won't calm down with their aggressiveness until they feel smarter than you. Especially girls that determine superiority based on intelligence. In modern society, intelligence seems to define who is superior or inferior. These influences lead intelligent women to achieve that state of mind. I myself achieved that pathetic state of mind that if you are intelligent you are better than someone else. I'm sure the majority of SDNers feel that way too.
 
dumb = unattractive. simple.

Beauty in my opinion revolves around personality and looks, a girl is never attractive by looks alone as cliche as that sounds..

Girls are very frequently attractive by looks alone. If anything ruins their attractiveness, it's unattractive personalities.

You say you're a doctor, and a girl's panties drop instantly, from what I hear.

Well, they won't anymore after Obamacare drops physician remuneration, but heh, what you gonna do.

OP, I know a few guys (doctors) like this (I myself am the exact opposite), and they're not really sexist, they're actually really great guys. One guy I know had the same situation growing up with his dad and his mom, so that might have been one reason why he preferred a significantly less intelligent bride. But him and his wife get along great. I guess it really comes down to personal preference and ultimately the quality of the bond. (He openly stated to me one time that he preferred this type of girl). So.

Most attractive women are dumb. But there are attractive women who are smart. Nonetheless, if they got a firm caboose, then I'm love struck

Intelligence all the way. I actually prefer somebody at my intelligence level or higher, not lower.
 
Now I can't get that song outta my head! Dang you!

Don't drop that dun duh da, don't drop that dun duh da....dont. Drop. That dun duh da. Don't drop that dun duh da!
 
OP, I feel like you would make a good surgeon. You've got a nice personality complex brewing.

I can't stand girls (or guys as friends for that matter) who are "dumb." That doesn't mean they have to have good grades, but people who watch the Jersey Shore, read about the Kardashians, don't pick up books and can't take sides in political arguments or talk current events really bother me. I can't imagine spending my entire day talking about dubstep, Natural light and *****.

Anywho, a lot of dumb girls I know are really hot. But hot is different than attractive in my eyes.

Yes personally I find that natural light quite shallow and pedantic.

Is that a bad thing?

I am perfectly fine with women of all intellectual capacities. However, when choosing one to spend my life with, I think it'd be nice to converse with them on an intellectual level. That doesn't necessarily mean that they need 95th percentile exam scores, just that they can interrelate in a logical manner that doesn't make me face palm. I think my offspring would also appreciate it, I know I do.

Attraction comes as a whole collective of things from physical and mental all the way to intellectual and social. But to answer the overall question, I would say intellect is a positive, desirable trait for a female to have. Of course, YMMV.

This is really what it comes down to. There have been plenty of times I saw a girl and thought, "Wow, she's hot!" and then when I talk to her and get to know her, only to find out she's dumb, it ruins it.

For the OP, you might like to feel superior NOW, which I feel like can be attributed to some sort of insecurity, but if/when you ever get over that, you'll prioritize having a companion you can talk to on an even level than someone on which you can throw your condescension.

When I get old I want to have someone interesting/smart/opinionated/rebellious around me. I will die of boredom to be around someone who was hot and probably shallow. I like someone who makes life interesting. Physical appearance decays faster than mental beauty.
