I think I'm intelligent (unmodest of me I guess but...) and I have not got a clue where smart women hang out. I don't hang out much because my spare time is limited. Most of it I spend in my home, doing things I enjoy, like reading, doing stuff on my computer, painting and drawing, watching TV, cooking good food, listening to music and playing with my cats, or with friends. In my spare time I like to go for walks on the beach or in a garden, to a nice coffee/tea house, I like to go to art shows and theatre, musicals and concerts, and visit friends in their homes or out somewhere (coffee place, restaurant, movie, exhibition, etc. etc.). I also like to go to the movies. I don't go to bookstores to hangout, I just buy books there! But someone said about the sober girl in bars, that would be a good choice because I am often that person, and also through friends I think is a good idea too. Apart from that, I think certain hobbies or groups you could join can lead you to meet smart women. Art classes, book clubs, music groups...there's plenty.

I thought I'd add, that sometimes through observation you can spot these women anywhere. I don't mean to stereotype, but look at it like this:

The intelligent women will be the ones who don't "go with the crowd". For example, I like to take my time choosing or doing things. I will often be alone calmly going about my business. I will take as long as I need to get something right for me. If there is a crowd, I will be the person walking a little faster and efficiently managing my way out of a crowd and placing myself apart from them. I won't be the person almost falling into the train line to see if the train is coming, I will be the person standing back behind others waiting patiently - I hate to have others standing behind me breathing down my neck. I will smile to myself in public because I have my own little world and don't care about what others think. I am not always talking, I often will be the person in a group listening attentively and when answering I will choose my words carefully. This may seem a strange way to say it but I think intelligent women are more pondered and calm. I guess this may come off as arrogant but that's how I feel about it. I hope I don't sound nuts and some other girls can identify with this! lol

Good luck in your search!

What we are Cannot be transfused into word or book. Our soul from us is infinitely far. However much we give our thoughts the will To be our soul and gesture it abroad, Our hearts are incommunicable still. In what we show ourselves we are ignored. The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged By any skill of thought or trick of seeming. Unto our very selves we are abridged When we would utter to our thought our being. We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams, And each to each other dreams of others' dreams. Fernando Pessoa, 1918 Last edited by little_tippler; 01-12-2006 at 07:01 AM..
