Dudes.
You know that scene from Velvet Goldmine where Arthur jumps up and down and points to the television yelling "That's me! That's me!". I SO get that.
Because woah. I never knew there was an actual word for it. :D :D
From unwords.com, lifted verbatim from
caersmane's LJ:
Definition of sapiosexuality :
(sā-pē-ō-sĕk-shü-ăl'ĭ-tē)
1. (n.) A behavior of becoming attracted to or aroused by intelligence and its use.
Origins: From the Latin root sapien, wise or intelligent, and Latin sexualis, relating to the sexes.
Example: Me? I don't care too much about the looks. I want an incisive, inquisitive, insightful, irreverent mind. I want someone for whom philosophical discussion is foreplay. I want someone who sometimes makes me go ouch due to their wit and evil sense of humor. I want someone that I can reach out and touch randomly. I want someone I can cuddle with. I decided this all means that I am sapiosexual.
Next time someone asks what my 'type' is (*looks pointedly at
peacey*), I'll can tell them in less than the usual forty paragraphs. w00t!
In other news, I want to make this.
