Huh... I didn't know this. I thought "sapiosexual" was something horrible chan-incels came up with to say "I didn't want a pretty girlfriend ANYWAY because pretty girls are DUMB and I am attracted so SMART people, WUÄÄÄÄH" and sound smart themselves while doing it.
It's not a chan-incel thing...but it's not really a legit sexuality...and it's ableist af fyi

Yeah, I'm getting a lot of contradicting information here... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think people are trying convey similar interests attracting them to partners...and that's all fine and all...but the idea behind sapiosexuality itself derives from ableist standards of what defines intelligence and gives the concept an icky aftertaste >.>

I get your drift but... I really don't wanna accuse Ana Mardoll, who's herself an advocate against ableism, of ableism... I'd rather believe that there is some stretchiness to the concept, if that makes sense.

I'd still be more inclined to use perhaps say...interpersonal attraction or something similar as more what is trying to be conveyed though
