Clever girls are Ugly

"His Mom wants to see your picture".

"No way. Sorry, I don't do pictures"

"She says she won't show him, it's only for her to see."

"She can ask everyone what I look like; height, weight, hair color, eye color, length of nose, promince of cheekbones, whatever she wants. "

"No, that's not good enough. She says her son wants to date a clever girl, and most clever girls are ugly. So she needs to check."

Have you ever?! Intelligent Women of the World, let us unite.

  1. most clever girls are uglyGive me this woman's phone number- I resent that. There are very prejudiced people out there in this world.

  2. I thought it was the girl with "a great personality" who was supposed to be ugly. Do Americans really use the term "clever?" I think they would more likely say "smart," which in British usage would connote more a type of hipness or high style than intelligence.

  3. Hmm, good point Ariella, but I think she did say clever..

    Maybe that's more extreme than smart?

  4. Well, the worst of all (next to be called a feminist, of course) is to be labeled "intellectual."

  5. Was she serious? Was she trying to get you to say that you're ugly?
    I see that as a no win situation.
