Smart girls like to pretend that they are comfortable with their intelligence. When in fact, most girls would happily trade for an angel face, big boobs and average intelligence (um, sure, maybe slightly below average).
Smart girls would never admit it though. What they say instead is, ‘I wish men were smarter, or there were more smart men. And I wish men were not as shallow’. Translation: I wish I were dumber, and that way there’d be more intelligent men. And i wish I were prettier, so more men would notice me.
Disclaimer: I’m not saying smart girls are ugly, I for one am not. But a girl always wishes she were prettier and skinnier.
Well, this is not limited to smart girls. I am sure that many smart guys would trade a few IQ points for clear skin, rippling muscles, and a sports car. They also would never admit it, and they would probably say that they wish girls weren’t so superficial. It’s a shame that our ideals of dating boil down to the high school paradigm of the football star and the cheerleader.

I thought about your comment for awhile & I wanted to be able to send you a note somewhere along the lines that said I was happy with my great personality and intelligence. But I got to thinking, do I want to be prettier and have a nicer body? YES! I wish I was sexier and had nicer teeth. But guess what? I recently ran into a a friend who is gorgeous, she has a great body, pretty face and she is outgoing. I actually felt envious, no I was jealous!
)
A few days later she mailed a card to me and said that she had always admired me for being myself and that she was glad to have me as a friend. Sooooo…am I disputing your comment? Well, not really but some of us smart girls would rather have good friends than big boobs

Christina -
Great story! I get jealous at girls who are prettier than me (not often, mind you haha). But whenever I see them, I think “I’m more _____ than her.”, and i feel better instantaneously.
You ARE gorgeous and have big boobs, so stop being greedy!
