Sapiosexual (attracted to intelligence) is a stupid word and identity. But calling it ableist is kind of like saying people with very low IQs should be considered able to fully consent when sometimes they aren't.
Like yeah, I don't want to fuck people who are THAT much dumber than me. Maybe that makes me a snob. I also don't want to fuck people who have the actual mind of a five year old, because it would make ME a monster. If that makes me able ableist, so be it.
Also does she think sapiosexuals actually like, administer IQ tests or something? It was just a word for stuck up nerdy men to say they liked women who wear glasses and read sci-fi. Nobody who said they were sapiosexual were trying to get it on a pride flag or have the government recognize their orientation.
Meteosexual wasn't a sexuality. It was an aesthetic, like being goth or a hipster. Metro dudes were straight guys who were more into hygiene and appearance than usual, straight guys who took style cues from gay guys and didn't mind being associated with them. They got pretty quickly sublimated into bearded hipsters. Again, metrosexuals weren't demanding anybody recognize their niche gender or orientation. They were straight guys! (Probably a lot of them were bi but it wasn't that okay to be bi back then)
