Well, I don’t tend to view the romanticizing of words as a gander-based quality. I’m quite enraptured by words myself and know quite a few men likewise enchanted.
I don’t tend to actively seek out people. I find it better for me to allow natural connections to form. I suppose I’m not intimidating (though certainly not someone who attracts a lot of women), so that would leave that need for seeking confidence in intelligence less vital (though I appreciate non-arrogant, humble confidence).
