在美國朋友的twitter上看到一個沒見過的單字,「Sapiosexual」。
查了一下,這個詞彙在英文裡算是流行俚語,中文也還沒有慣用的翻譯,有些人姑且就遵循「同性戀者」(homosexual)、「異性戀者」(Heterosexual)的套路,稱它為「智性戀者」。
根據Urben Dictionary的定義:
One who finds the content's of someone else's mind to be their most attractive attribute, above and before their physical characteristics. From the Latin root "sapien", meaning wise. The term is now becoming mainstream with dating apps such as OkCupid and Sapio giving users the ability to define their sexual orientations as "Sapiosexual."
For many, defining oneself as Sapiosexual is also a statement
against the current status quo of hookup culture and superficiality, where looks are prized above all else.
