Adjusting your game to the IQ of a woman

Sometimes you will be chatting with a girl and she is either incredibly dumb or off the charts smart. For these unique situations you need to adjust your flirting style a bit. AskMen.com has tips on what to do.

Don’t think for a second that it’s easier to score the dumb chick just because she’s not that bright. We must always remember that education doesn’t have much impact on a person’s social skills, and zero impact on their sexual appeal. In fact, it’s probably more likely that the brilliant woman has less experience in the flirting and dating game, but at the same time, may be more of a closed book. She’s tough to read, and not easily manipulated. Both types of women present their own challenges and hopefully these tips will assist you when attempting to adjust to her intelligence.

For Incredibly intelligent women:

•  What you need to do is recognize her braininess, and while you’re not dismissing it, you shouldn’t be fixating on it. This is similar to the advice I gave in the “Approaching the 10s” article, in which I warned against focusing on her looks. One of the most common traps of early courtship is to give obsessive attention to her one significant and unique characteristic.
• Don’t believe for a second all that baloney about “opposites attract.” The truth is that you have a better chance of being ushered behind closed doors if you can relate to her world. So be willing to talk about high brow topics.
• void the insulting position that her body means nothing to you, and include your interest in her brain capacity along with the standard physical compliments. Intelligent women have probably heard the “Damn, I love smart women” line about seven trillion times, so you’ve got to walk a tightrope. You have to establish a genuine interest in her brain, but once that has been achieved give it a rest and focus on something else.
• Smart girls like to be told their pretty. Say it.

For Less Intelligent Women:

• Nobody wants to feel bad about their abilities, and chances are that this lady is aware of her intelligence deficiency. It is your job to not even come close to the subject.
• In every encounter, your goal is to disarm the woman and make her feel good; if you can’t easily do that, at least make her realize that her deficits in a certain area aren’t such a huge calamity. Rather than constantly trying to change the subject and hope your tangents can ease her self-consciousness, simply address it right off the bat. However, delicacy is required as you can’t just say, “Hey, I know you’re not very smart, but that’s OK.”
• Pretty girls like to be told they are smart. Say so. She never gets compliments on her brain capacity (which she doesn’t deserve, but that’s not the point). There may not be a lot to choose from, but leap at the opportunity when it presents itself. For example, when she mentions something specific about a character in a recent film, you should reply: “Wow, that’s pretty insightful. I never looked at him that way.”
