Men lose their minds speaking to pretty women

Hmm, I wonder if this happens if men are trying to impress women with their intelligence. There was an article on HN a little while ago about how women are attracted to intelligence.

I thought it was about how women aren't primarily attracted to intelligence (unless you mean a different article)? http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=567807

It was this one actually. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=799344

However, its only about birds... I'd forgotten that.

Oh well, I still wonder if it happens to guys who are trying to show off their intelligence (probably a decent strategy in some limited circumstances).

The general impression I've gotten is they go for pure animal magnetism when looking for a good fuck, and sensitivity, intelligence etc. when looking for some chump to help raise their kids.

You're apparently not going to be winning any parenting awards.

Are there special parenting awards for mistakenly raising another man's kids?
