    1. I regale them with well constructed stories and researched answers that address the topical conversation points of the day

    2. The same, but with more references to boobs

    Honestly, not a damn thing, nor do I really care about intelligence in anyone. Intelligence is simply one of those things that's really low on my list of what I look for in a girl. Kindness, integrity, loyalty are so much more important. Intelligence is a terribly useless concept in the grand scheme of things and there's no reliable test for it whatsoever. Good judgment and common sense are more important any day of the week.

    I don't do a damn thing to demonstrate intelligence to anybody and they're more than welcome to make their assessment however they feel. I'd much rather they simply see me as a person of integrity and sound judgment. My intelligence is immaterial to how others choose to perceive me; I just don't care. Frankly, those that spend a lot of time trying to convince others of their intelligence are likely suffering from some degree self-consciousness.

    I don't think intelligence needs to be demonstrated. Basically, if I have to explain/prove myself to "you", then I'm already wasting my time.

    I do, however, think that sense of humor demonstrates intelligence. You've been to our cyber sexy time in chatzy.... See, I didn't even have to tell you.
