Tell me why men (YOU) like women to not be smarter than you?

Spoiler: Potential powerlevel - I'm not an idiot, but I find myself dumbing myself down to appease men. They like mansplaining, and I kind of like it when they mansplain, even if I'm just playing along. It makes them feel good so it makes me feel good that I'm making them feel good.

What's the deal?
 
Dude, like im borderline retarded, but i sometimes come upon people more rotten then me. sometimes its a better idea to act like you dont know something or you dont understand something in order to get close to someone.
I like someone that can just be stupid without judgement and doesnt feel the need to be hyper critical logical about everything, that gets really fucking tiring after a while.
 
Mansplaining should only ever involve power tools, mechanics and beer. Also, I like it when my partner is more or less on my wavelength, culturally, emotionally and mentally. Preferably with a wider breadth and depth to their knowledge. It just makes locking horns all the more challenging and fun, especially when it all devolves into puerile innuendo. That's the best quality in a partner, I think - being able to laugh at retarded shit while also being open to srs bsns.

Well, that and big booba, naturally.

Having a dumb partner is absolutely brutal. I like smart women, so I'm not exactly sure what you mean.
 
I don't know any guys, myself included, who prefer dumb women or even women who are even less intelligent than themselves. Maybe you're just not as smart as you think you are?
 
Women who say shit like this are always arrogant with their opinions which dose not translate to intelligence, its the arrogance and exaggerated importance in ones own opinion that makes men seem like they “hate” smart women.
 
Individual preference.
I don't enjoy talking to a brick wall.
I like bouncing ideas off of people building to a finished product or goal.
Makes dates and projects go easier when both parties know what is being talked about.
Dumb women don't appeal to me in that regard.
That said, I don't like people who inflate their self-worth, regardless of their gender.
In my experience, women, for whatever reason, seem to be more guilty of this than men.

>guy is into you
>you purposely dumb yourself down when you're around him
>he's fine with explaining basic shit to you because he likes you
>you're actually bonding together over your 'pretense' at idiocy

What the fuck are you even talking about, @Serf 'n' TERF? Are you really complaining that you 'pretended' to be a moron, the guy who was already into you is fine with it and actually delights in being able to tell you about stuff, and then you both feel awesome so it's win-win? What are you even complaining about here?

If you didn't want him to think you're stupid, then 'pretending' to act stupid seems like a poor idea.
 
Personally, I'm happy for anyone to listen to me explain the complex and subtle nuances of Sneedposting and the various moral failings of jannies and their enablers. Sadly many of the 120-IQ-Islanders are in that reverse goldilocks zone where they think they are smart enough to brush off what is actually a really critical issue affecting our society. So, I prefer talking to the extremely intelligent or people of average intelligence.

I'm not complaining. I said I like it. And in my experience, men like it too.

Maybe Farmers here are right, that it says more about me and my taste in men than it does about the men themselves.

It's funny that your knee-jerk reaction is to assume that I'm bashing men for being superficial, when I said I enjoy that dynamic. :heart-full:
 
If you're ascribing your lack of success with other people to "well, I'm just too [insert positive trait here] for them to handle", you're just jerking yourself off and not actually trying to understand anything.
 
Why do women like men to have small penises? Everyone I've ever been with complained that my penis was too big, and that I made them orgasm too hard. They also say my income is too high.

Can anybody help me?
 
A lot of shit-flinging in this thread so fast. Entertaining, but man, how fast this devolved, lol.

Semi-serious answer, but I think it’s related to modern living in the West as an (employed) male at a large corporation. Many get talked-down to by managers, customers, coworkers (who are increasingly women, an important point I’ll get back to later)and generally have to be yes-men, follow the orders w/o pushback, good little wage drones/salarymen. These are seen as being “submissive” by some (I see it as not being a dumbass and needlessly rocking the boat but to each their own). Sometimes, people in their private/dating/sexual lives are opposite their public/professional lives (either to let off steam or to explore things they can’t otherwise). Men can have some tiny iota of authority or feeling like they’re special/needed/wise, which scratches an itch in men that modern life seldom does.

The deepest-seated thing about men in my experience (if they aren’t a narcissist or sheltered NEET) is the desire to be a provider. Having a career and/or authority gives that feeling and worth in a relationship. However, when men see women who are smarter, richer, and having more authority than them, they feel inadequate. “Why the hell am I needed? What can I offer that she doesn’t have?”

So a TLDR, I don’t think men like dumb women per se. Our primate brains want to feel like we’re providing and bringing something into the relationship, which for some men manifests the way you’re seeing it. Pretending to be dumb is dishonest though and an ultimate relationship killer as others have said, so avoid that.

Or maybe I’m wrong and thinking too hard/autistically about this. This thread should be in Deep Thoughts…
 
Are trying to appease us right now?
Because you appear pretty fucking dumb.

Sorry for all this MANSPLAINING.
