Of course men are intimidated by educated women but I will in fairness say not all men; just the insecure ones. Much like many are intimidated by an independent woman. well I am screwed then...LOL  JK I am very independent and have realized that I can not make a relationship work with a man that is not independent! I like intelligent men that can challenge my thoughts and carry good conversations as well! This is the reason I just gave up on the dating. Would rather be single the rest of life than to play dumb and dependent. I think we are soulmates. I gave up on dating because I am tired of playing the part of the tall, dark and handsome. I'd rather be just myself: short and independent, and give up the pretence of being tall, happy, and successful with women. You hit the nail on the head. Fact is I am willing to accept a guy for who he is but guys can't seem to accept me for who I am. The one thing most people still haven't learned is acceptance. Unfortunately, that`s also very true. You keep saying the right things. Take me, for instance. (Please!) I don`t accept just anyone. I am rather picky, choosy, and sometimes cheesy even. But I believe you have to be very careful in this age of free marriages, overpriced real estate and the service industries going kaputt!! Belly up. I survived so far, but if I don`t learn to be more accepting pretty soon, I will die I guess from an unintentional overdose of celibacy. I wish people would be more accepting, too. Oh; you poor man. I guess that I don't think much about anything these days other than work, working out, my interest clubs, and music. I think being accepting is fine but don't just settle because of lonliness as you will end up being very unhappy. |

I think people are sometimes intimidated by things they do not understand, whether male or female, whether it's education, religion, or ethnicity...
I have never flaunted my education because i don't overestimate it's value. Nonetheless, I think it has caused problems that I never asked for a few times and something's wrong with that picture |

I think many women also intimidated by smart men. <--/waiting for the riots coming up after that statement/ Not me. One of my very favorite people (and one of the sexiest men I've known) is extremely smart. Several degrees and working on a phd. He's the only one where I have to look up words when he emails me at times. Though, he's never ever talked down to me, acted better than me or acted as if he was smarter than everyone. |

I, for one, am not intimidated by smart and/or learned women, with a very good education, but I AM intimidated by women who are not intimidated by a smart and educated man.
Those women give me the heebee-jeebees. What is it that they are trying to prove? |

Women are not intimidated by smart men. Only men do that. That's not anything I said. I think it depends on the indiviudals Atlantis - back to my 1st post yes either gender could have that insecurity - in a male dominated household I think it could be hard for a man most men I know seem to either think my education was a waste of time because I don't know a trade and don't make six figuers or they think it's pretty cool - as fas as I can remember anyway |

They're only intimidated if they are dumb.
But who wants a uneducated man anyways? Trying to hold a decent conversation with a guy of a lesser intelligence, is nearly impossible. |

I see many graduate student women concerned about finding a mate before finishing their degrees! Many believe having a master's or doctorate makes it more difficult to date. I have never really sat and pondered this...so, what are your opinions? my first thoughts are that this would attract more serious men rather than the players, but what the heck do I really know? LOL To me an educated women is very appealing. I know what I went through just to get my BSIT degree so any women with a BS or higher shows me the character of the person. |
