No, I don't consider MENSA membership or high iq an accomplishment, but rather a genetic gift, much like appearance, or natural talent. What I'm asking you is, do you find it acceptable to take pride appearance, or playing piano by ear, or even accepting a warm fist effortlessly?
Being able to do IQ tests is only revealing of one's ability to do IQ tests, not one's intelligence. As talents go it is as meaningful as being on the top 5% chicken imitators.
You're obviously free to take pride of that, but so am I free to openly mock those who take pride in such meaningless cards.

... It wouldn't occur to me to question the person's sexuality, though. I wouldn't expect homosexual men to flirt with women.
the finnish meaning of purse might get them a swift slap though, straight or gay. unless you were drunk enough, but we already know you're never drunk enough.

Originally posted by Dudermoonernot true. a while ago I ran into a photo of a male baseball player. they had used an eye tracking device developed for usability study, to track what part of the picture people looked at. the more people looked at a point, the brighter red it was colored.
4 Pages later and nobody has yet to state the obvious. Women only like two things in regards to men.Both include rather large buldges in the general lower waist area. If girls seem to like you then you have either one or the other.
face was an obvious hot spot. but the funny thing was the player's crotch attracted the eye even more. for men, that is. the women didn't look at the crotch at all, only the face.
okay, I found a link to it:

it appears I remembered it wrong, women do look at the private parts as well. only not as much as men. the picture is pretty telling though.

Complimenting her on her ability to accessorise will result in her questioning your sexuality.
If I am wrong on that one I'd like to hear it from a girl's perspective, not you shortcircuit - until the op you don't count.
