I'd like to hear TRP's take on this one.

I do very well with smart chicks if you can call them that, my first date conversion rate is close to 100%. I can descend into endless discussions about philosophy, history, geography, technology, fucking outer space, you name it. I do most of the talking, but they actively participate as well. In many cases it goes on until the venue we're in closes. Now that I reflect on it I wonder if those chicks were just waiting for me to stop yapping and fuck them already.

Does this sort of stuff make you less alpha or is it a good strategy? Many people say the whole sapiosexual thing is bogus, but maybe there's something there after all?
