Can a woman with a genius IQ and gorgeous good looks have trouble getting a date..Why ?

Answer 1

Yes. Because women tend to go for men who are above them in certain areas, taller, smarter, richer, etc. So if a woman is already gorgeous and smart, then there aren't going to be too many men above her, thus reducing the selection pool. It's a pretty common phenomenon these days with women having equal access to education and earning power etc. Sad, but true.

Answer 2

Yes.

For a couple of reasons:

1. Many attractive people have troubles getting dates. Why? It seems that the main reason is that people presume that they are unavailable. Believe it or not, social psychology studies have found that the lady with the slightly above average appearance usually has a better chance of being "picked-up" than the so-called "knockout". (If it's any consolation, it seems that a similar problem exists for men too.)

2. Intelligence though is a different matter. Although a lady's high intelligence is helpful in maintaining conversations, many men get put off when the date seems to constantly try to "one up" them. (Although males do tend to be a bit competitive, they seem to prefer dating to be a non-competition zone. They are seeking a companion, partner or a mate, not an opponent. And, this is as true for chimps as it is for humans.)

Note that I didn't use the term IQ -- that refers more to the score on a skills test, rather than a person's actual intelligence.

Answer 3

Not so. Many intelligent men enjoy provocative, intelligent conversation. When not engaging in sex, you could be a very compatible companion on a day-to-day basis.

Set your sights high & show your intelligence. There's nothing worse than being, with a date, at an important social function & being embarrassed by inappropriate, crude, or unintelligent rambling. I'm sure both women & men have had this experience with dates.

Besides, it sounds like you need intellegent conversation from a date. Men with ego problems not only have to dominate the conversation with women, but also men. Social boat anchors.

Answer 4

Dating is not about intelligence or good looks, it is about social skills and the ability to play up your positive aspects.

If you're smart and pretty and having trouble getting a date, then you need to study up on being smooth ;)

Answer 5

Yes, she can if she has no experience dating the other gender or if she is so stuck-up or have any "turn-off" traits.

Most guys do not care though. Am I right? Just kidding.

Answer 6

Not if she's careful to let other people know she doesn't think of herself as anything special.

Answer 7

yes she intimidates men
