Re Woody Allen’s “The Whore of Mensa” concept, let’s make that scenario real, and let’s say you got tired of dating willing, but not too bright or well educated women, and you really wanted some attentive, and potentially challenging conversation with an intelligent, well educated woman who had a real depth of knowledge. How much would you be willing to pay for that woman’s conversational time over some coffee or lunch at a nice bistro?
Isn’t this essentially the idea of the geisha, or the courtesan? Sex might (or might not, depending on your source) be part of their job, but the far greater portion of their time and energy is spent entertaining men at parties, both with conversation and with various performing art forms. They were arguably the most learned and educated women of their time.
Why, yes, I do love* Dangerous Beauty*, why do you ask? 
This would be one of the reasons I’m in the SCA. YMMV (wildly), but I’ve been pretty lucky.
But stimulating and intellectual conversations can be had with all bright persons. The opposite sex provides something that only the opposite sex can.
Just attend a Doper-fest!
BTW, what’s SCA?
Thats why i joined the boards. Im a model, and i never get into any interesting conversations with my workmates.
Not to mention the hetaira, who were intellectual and sexual companions of ancient Greece: Hetaira, the Greek Courtesans.
You assume I’d ever date
Not so. And as soon as I found a nice smartygirl who ALSO wanted to date me, I married her. Why, just last night we had a lovely conversation about disorders of the basal ganglia and their implications for the medications used to treat schizophrenia, while eating homemade meatloaf and watching The Simpsons. Bliss, I tell you! Bliss!
Can I be the first to volunteer to be a Gigolo of Mensa?
SCA = Society for Creative Anachonism
Your welcome. 
What?? You mean I could be getting PAID for being an attentive listener and great conversationalist to all these nerds I date?
Sheesh. Society owes me a LOT of money!
Fortunately, I’m married to one of the most intelligent women I’ve ever met so I never have to pay for it.
Yeah, but she sneaks out on you and gives fabulous conversation to all the boys in town.
Shouldn’t it be “You’re welcome”?
Hey, it’s a MENSA related thread, right?
the loquacious little hussy! 
Conversation with intelligent people, you say? To me it’s worth about $14.95 per year.
I think they’re more about telling men what they want to hear. A little different from what the OP is suggesting, I think. (Or is it?)
Hell, I’m married to one of the most intelligent women I’ve ever met and consequently pay for it all the time!
Speak for yourself
I must say I think it’s a pretty insulting idea that intelligent women are that scarce. :rolleyes:
No, but pretty ones are
ducks, runs
