"Undermining my electoral viability since 2001."

Smart Chicks

Word. Ezra sez:

When my friends and I compare notes at week's end, more plaudits are given when the girls are impressive than when they're hot. I became extra-infatuated with my first girlfriend when she used a word I didn't know (phylogeny, as I recall), and I still weed folks out by way of a quasi-intellectually elitist checklist, though what's on it remains proprietary information.

I'll take it a step further and say I've taken home and slept with women, mainly because they were working on their PhDs. It's like big knockers, but different.

There are some generation gaps that are emerging among White Male Americans...

Dudes who are over 35 are roundly terrified of homosexuality and will make a point of saying they didn't see Brokeback Mountain. People in my generation don't give a fuck. Result? The Gays™ will be able to marry when I'm 50.

Dudes from the other generation are more likely to see relationships with women in a compartmentalized fashion, more likely to see their mate as filling a pretty specific niche in life and ergo more likely to value beauty over brains. Not so with my peers, though conversely we're probably better at one-night-stands than older folks.
