Do brains matter?


We're back! THE STAR poll is here once again and dare we say, better than ever. We 'hit' the streets with all the juiciest questions about sex, obeah, music, religion and much more and now we're ready to give you the results. Prepare to be shocked and amused like never before.

There are some people who are intimidated by persons who are more intelligent than they are and who would never consider dating such a person. On the other hand, there are those who strive to be with people that are better educated and more intelligent. We wanted to find out what our men think about this, so we asked :

If you meet a woman who is better educated and more intelligent than you, would you be more likely to try to establish a romantic relationship with her or would it not make a difference to you one way or the other? Here are the results :

More Likely: 59%

Less Likely: 5%

No Difference: 32%

Don't Know: 4%

It seems the majority of the men polled have no problem approaching or expressing interest in a better educated woman. A significant number of respondents also said it did not make much of a difference whether a woman was more educated.

It is somewhat surprising to see so many man say that they are not intimidated by more intelligent women, when every woman can cite at least one instance where this has happened.

The poll was conducted on January 28-29 by Johnson Survey Research Limited

Sample size: 1008 residents
