  • How To Be An Original Nigerian Sapiosexual

    A sapiosexual is “someone who finds intelligence sexually attractive or arousing.” Do not be one of those people who say “am sapiosexual” when they introduce themselves.

    Here’s how to be an original Nigerian sapiosexual.

    1. First of all, put Sapiosexual in your bio.

    This is what it really means to be sapiosexual

    You have to confess your profession. Also, let your prospective followers know beforehand that intelligence is the only currency you spend.

    2. Use big words in your posts.

    How will they know what you are if you don’t manifest it?

    3. You want to express your thoughts? Turn your posts into a mini dissertation.

    Anyone who does not have the patience to read it surely does not have the mental range you desire.

    4. Never ever be seen looking for gossip on the TL.

    gossip

    That one is for non-sapiosexuals, people who are not interested in educating themselves. You, however, are above that. If you really want to hear the gist, create a burner account for that.

    5. Always follow the serious-minded accounts.

    6. Yes, you’re Sapiosexual, but you must never follow any porn accounts.

    That’s not the kind of sexuality you are after. You are attracted to intellect; do they have any videos of pornstars knacking intellect? The answer is no.

    7. Never be seen begging for giveaway.

    USE YOUR BURNER.

    8. If you ever land a date from your Sapiosexual appearance, take them to a library and ask them questions from a book of Current Affairs.

    That’s the way to show and act like what you are: A TRUE SAPIOSEXUAL.
