^True, we're vain as wombats. If you want you can change the question to "would you date someone dumber and stumpier than yourself?"

I want to date someone atm who, at least, kind of appears to be umm.. a little uneducated. I feel so bad for having this in the back of my mind really.. She's a sweet, cool person in general.

Since it is almost impossible to get in bed with a girl without at least some talk, and stupidity is a turn off, I don't think the stupidity problem is completely avoidable. Even drunken conversation at a bar can take place on different levels. But it does level the playing field. I don't think it's a deal-breaker in bar or party setting, but it never helps.

I don't think you should feel bad at all. You're attracted to her because of other traits. I think there is a bit of overemphasis on intelligence to compensate for the sort of inherent bias towards beauty. Anyway, try not to fixate on it or it could snowball into an issue where there really isn't one. Not saying you *would*, but just sayin'...

^ Agree. Besides, two eggheads don't always (often) make a good match.
