Do you value intelligence in those you own?  Do you like the ability to be able to debate things such as politics, or heathcare or football with your slave?   Or would you rather have them be ignorant of issues and events of the world?

Wonderful topic, mystique!
"Real" intelligence is a turn-on for me.
It is like an aphrodisiac.....sigh.
Impress me with your thoughts, your views, your skills, and your mind.
...........deep sighing.........................
THAT is when you start to really turn me on.
I want to crave your mind, like a drug addict.

I need you to be one of THE most interesting and mentally stimulating people I know.

Blow me the fuck away, with your thoughts.
Mystify me, blow my damn mind with your intelligence!
Damn it, it is very hot in here. 
I feel a little dirty, now.
Time for a shower.

Intelligence is always a virtue. However, knowledge of "current issues and world events" isn't necessarily a good measure of intelligence in general, or the type of intelligence that is sought. I imagine some Keepers may desire distance from these things in their servants for any number of understandable reasons, such as disassociation from outside influence.

We typically like to model intelligence in the form of ability to debate, but I find one's aptness to sit at the feet of another, look up, listen and zealously absorb equally as valid.

When one is trying to form a working team- with one as the servant........then the ability of the servant to fully comprehend the game plan and execute it is a sign of very high intelligence. The ability to be in compliance, in a thoughtful and useful manner is valuable in such a situation.

Indeed, one does not delegate important responsibilities to a "blow up doll".

Any more than one would delegate them to a fractious "debator" who was so busy arguing and being afflicted with tunnel vision.....that thier much vaunted "intelligence" became a disability to thier performance.

In short, such individuals are so busy proving thier "strength", that they become incompetent to in any way equate to the word.

Serving with dilligence and astounding ability does not equate to being a "doormat" in my eyes. It points to worthiness. I'd take the doormat over the asshat any day.

Intelegence is a WONDERFUL thing and one I respect very very much!

However, when this question is usually asked they aren't asking if I value thier intelegence, they are asking if I am going to tolerate thier snobishness toward other people.

I don't care for negative people, I don't care for negative attitudes and as a general rule try to keep free of thier influence however from time to time I run into a girl who is pretty and worldly and smart and *Gasp**E-Gad* A Bitch too! After a few conversations where all I hear is them putting people down for the immproper use of the word "Diligent" I usually inform them that I must not be the class of person they wish to be conversing with and excuse myself and kill all contact.

I have been accused of not being able to handle an Intelegent Woman when in reality I just don't have the patience or the time to deal with a bitch.

My wife/slave is smart, perhaps not college graduate smart but then again neither am I, I like the english language but don't always use it with an english majors zeal and for this I also fail to use Grammar correctly or Puncuation for that matter. Do I want to be corrected? No not usually, but if I ask to have my girl proof read something then I want her too, however if I didn't ask for it I don't want it.

Does this mean I don't value Intelegence? I don't think so I think I don't care for intelectual superiority and the ego that comes from it, but dealing with people smarter than me is usually fun I learn all sorts of things from them, it's when thier ego springs us and I get the feeling they they think they are better than me because they are smarter than me this is where I have a problem.

I always hope to maintain a balance about myself.  I want to use my mind with all the force it demands to be satisfied, but I do not want to ever seem to be condescending to others.  The ability to collaborate and contribute in a relationship are skills that are clearly underrated (just look at soaring divorce rates and at the ever shortening lengths of other unions).  I hope my posts are a help and give uesful fodder for a conversation to a thread and that this intention is always clear in my posts, or as much as a flawed individual can manage.

I would say sane is probably more important than intelligence.  That's where AH & the other mass murderers fail.

I despise the culture we live in. From early on, we are taught to compete, rather than to cooperate. It's no wonder that we have become destroyers of the earth, and of each other.

When we learn to cherish creation and creators, and to strive to leave places better when we leave them...........rather than use them and abuse them......we can do the same with our relationships. I don't want to compete with my friend. I want to become-more.
