Telegraph (UK) ^

Men value intelligence in women far above large breasts and long legs, a Cambridge evolutionary biologist has claimed.

Although having a large bust and never-ending pins are deemed by western culture as the epitome of femininity, when choosing a mother for their children, men look for brains first,

Well not some super genius who graduated from college before reaching puberty, but someone who can converse would be nice.

So I'm thinking while walking the dog'

How might Hillary fit into this discussion. Then the dog stopped, circled around, stopped again, and took a dump.

The answers are always around you. You just need to heed the signs.

Hilarious that if it’s an article about women, Laz always immediately appears on the scene to comment.

My first long term relationship was with a woman who was sharp and witty. She was a national merit scholar, went to NASA space camp and shared my hobbies of electronics and gaming.

After things fell apart I decided that intellect is good but that kindness (not just to you but also to the people around them) is a better indicator of the potential for a lasting marriage.

Let’s not be so quick to forget boobs and butts. Those are good things.

Men like big boobs. Duh.
But, if a woman doesn’t have big boobs, men don’t notice or care.

There is so much more.

I recently crushed on a woman who has the smallest boobs I think I’ve ever seen. And she is extremely intelligent.

In spite of being very small chested, I think she is the most astonishingly, jaw-droppingly beautiful and desirable woman I’ve ever seen.

Funny, that. Almost like a coincidence.

Almost.

It doesn’t matter what a woman is like if she doesn’t really like men.

If she's saying anything but "Here's your sammich, sweety," I don't want to hear it.
