sapiosexual

'While Suzanne holds the mirror
And you want to travel with her
And you want to travel blind
And you know that you can trust her
For she's touched your perfect body with her mind.'

From 'Suzanne' by Leonard Cohen.

What I don't love in this word is the dissonance* with all the other -sexual terms, that have Greek etymology. So, a true sapiosexual, being attracted by intelligence, should define him/herself noosexual.

*Er... could I use this word in this context? (*sigh, foreignness*)

(n) A sapiosexual person.

(adj) A form of sexual orientation characterized by a strong attraction to intelligence in others, often regardless of gender and/or conventional attractiveness.

"I am sapiosexual. I think geeks and nerds are sexy--I often want to rub my clit against their minds." -Kayar Silkenvoice
