SapioSexuality

Aloha ma amigos! (Yep. I'm a linguist now. Don't hate.)
It's been too loooong yo! But your girl is back (I've always been around anyway. Not like I took a sabbatical to travel around the world in search of my true purpose in life. I wish).
But I digress...

This post was initially supposed to be about my Easter trip to three West African countries, one of which I had never been to before - Ghana.
But as those technological enemies who don't want me to be great decided to cause my fingers to delete ALL the pictures I took during the trip from my phone, I had no other choice but to postpone the post till further notice.
I am steady working on retrieving those images as soon as I can (so help me God).

However, while I was having a conversation with a friend earlier today, we brushed a bit on the sapiosexual trait in well, both of us.
And then a light bulb went on in my head - "Oooh...that could be a perfect topic for my blog!"
So here we are.

For those who don't know, a sapiosexual is someone that is sexually and mentally turned on by smart people. In simpler terms- 'aroused by intelligence' (I like that definition better).

I have always been a sucker for tall, dark, good-looking, fit guys (who isn't?) But that is to me, just the icing on a cake.
Another friend of mine always says I am very picky (I do not disagree completely. I mean, everyone has a preference, no?). But the truth is, if I meet a guy who checks all the physical boxes but has nothing to offer on an intellectual level, all the fireworks turn to dust and I'm out. BuhBye!
Like, how can I enjoy a yummy looking slice of cake if all I can eat out of it is the icing and the cake itself is all bland and boring? Err...pass.

When I say 'intellectual level' I don't mean you have to have a vast knowledge in science and stocks or philosophy per say. I mean being witty and smart or intelligent (not necessarily in the 'I-am-a-first-class-graduate' bookworm type of way. Even though THAT could be a super hot add on. Yes, I'm weird, You should be used to that by now.) and also able to hold a conversation about any and everything.

Let's have deep conversations and bounce facts, ideas, opinions and views off each other. You could even teach me about the intricacies of soccer formations and I will tell you a thing or two about the lyrics of a rock song.
Say things to me that 'make my mind curl before my toes do.'

So go ahead,


*wink*
