Women and Intellectual Whoredom: A Very Weak Link

A number of women I know insist on calling themselves " intellectual whores " from time to time, or have asked about why I don't include more about female versions of myself. There is a very good reason for this: it is almost impossible for a woman to be an intellectual whore.

Why can't a woman be an intellectual whore? It is useful I think, to start off with a nutshell definition of an intellectual whore. A useful definition is: person A is an intellectual whore to person B if person A wants to shag person B and person B will not shag person A but keeps person A around for entertainment, emotional support etc...

First off let's look at how men achieve this miserable status and from there look at how it is virtually impossible for females. A number of things have to be true for the man to be an intellectual whore:

1. The man wants to have sex with the woman
2. The woman has to not want to have sex with him.
3. She has to be interested in keeping him around for other things

Now let's apply these principles in symmetry.

1. The woman wants to have sex with the man
2. The man has to not want to have sex with the woman
3. The man hs to be interested in keeping the woman around for reasons other than sex

Item one is perhaps common, almost certainly more common than men think. However, a lot of the time men are not aware that this is the case. Just for the sake of fair argument let's assume that it is common as a man wanting to have sex with a woman.

It's in the number two and three that the strength of my position becomes apparent. Just from personal experience I don't know many guys that would turn down sex from a woman. There are reasons a guy would turn down sex, and it will be useful to list them here:

• The guy is gay
• The guy finds you repulsive and is sober
• The guy has someone higher on the ladder already. If you haven't read the ladder theory, then if the guy thinks you are beneath him.

So assuming these things are not true, then we have a situation where a guy does not want to have sex with a woman. And wants to keep her around. Now it's possible that a guy has a religious reason for not wanting to sleep with you, or he's a prude, or is diseased, or something. So let's assume you find a guy who will not sleep with you for no apparent reason. Then he still has to want to keep you around for other reasons.

Now what would those resaons be? Let's face it, guys and girls have little in common. Girls generally don't like to do guy things like play poker, go to the strip club, watch football, or sit around and watch porn. The ones that do, bless you. But in general they don't. So why would guys want to keep a girl around. Most likely it is because the girl is repulsive or lower than the guy can do.

So for all you girls who think you are intellectual whores, think about this first: are you sure that the guy knows you want to have sex with him? And if so, are you sure he finds you attractive? And does he want you around just to talk to? If you answered yes to all these questions, which is unlikely, you might be an intellectual whore.

So in conclusion, a girl can be an intellectual whore to a guy. IF she is repulsive, he is gay, or he has someone better than her already. Other than that and he probably just hasn't gotten around to nailing you yet.
