FabSwingers.com forum: Fabs most thoughtful

There seems to be a spate of ‘best’ body parts at the moment on the forums, asking for people to rate others various physical attributes.

I think it’s time to draw attention to those forumites that make it have the goods where it really counts; between their ears.

So folks, who makes you think? Who makes the valid and interesting points? Who do you feel uses that most sexy and vital of organs; their brain?

That’s very true.

There are some who’s opinion I genuinely value, some that I think they have a point sometimes

Queen Leviosa... she's one smart cookie for one so young.

Altropos... inspite of her coming across as mad as a box of frogs at times I do enjoy her honesty and think she is cleverer than she's given credit for.

Unfortunately the lady has a point. Lots of fakery on here to portray a certain image and sadly quite a few people fail to see through it.

There is a degree of fakery on here yes, there’s also a greater than is healthy amount of cynicism. Sometimes people are just trying to be nice, sometimes they’re fawning and self serving. Such is the nature of people and it’s not confined to fab.

I would also say though that whilst sad; they’re not what I was asking

Things wot I liked:

HOT BODS - but now they’re just so generic that they blend into the background.

THINKERS. - a hot mind was attractive & I’d wonder at how intelligent their mind was, until I overthunk it & realised they just used big words but talked a lot of pish.

SOULS - they can have a hot bod & a hot mind, but it’s nothing without a beautiful soul to accompany it. I’ve learned that there’s nothing more attractive than a person with a beautiful soul. Not as many of those about & time they made a comeback.

That’s often the problem, that in making lists someone gets left out. I felt though that it’s just as important to recognise those that use their big brains to excite us mentally as well as those who excite us physically

I'm going on this from an intellectual standpoint. I may not agree with all their views, but respect their ability to make a person see another side to a debate. Two jump out at me. Estella and Dubious Oatcake. I always enjoy reading their comments/posts

I agree with you on that count. I think a thoughtful person argues the facts and debates the points, it’s never about the other person and it’s never personal

Well yes but at the same time, thoughtful persons are first and foremost humans and subjected to the same dissonances and biases. There is always a trigger. As much as a thoughtful person can put himself in someone's else shoes... There are subjects where he/she will not be able to do so.

Intelligence is subjective.

As Mr Einstein once said, “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

Common human decency is invaluable.

Absolutely, there is no such thing as an impartial person. We can study and learn and try to look at things from both sides but we will never be impartial. I think this is more leading towards the nature of intelligence and how we quantify it rather than giving recognition to those that actively demonstrate those qualities.

Those two statements are different things though, recognising the need for human decency to temper intelligence is different from acknowledging that people have different strengths

Intelligence is somehow very difficult to quantify. I mean they do with IQ tests but tgere are several layers to intelligence, crystallised and fluid and different type if intelligence which is sometimes impossipble to quantify on a paper version test.

Like music intelligence for instance ir interpersonal intelligence which is what you are refering to I guess

To be able to put yourself in someone'else shoes you have to have interpersonal intelligence at some point. EQ must come from linguistic intelligence and interpersonal intelligence. In order to be a good speaker u must be able to read your audience.

I think I have told most of the people whose input I appreciate that I do. Quite a few of them have been mentioned already but just in case I haven't told them I would also like to add Bike Monkey, Steel Heels, Lickety Splits and Scarlet Seduction to the list. And Clem Fandango and Lib when they're being a bit serious. I don't always agree with them but they can all make thoughtful points that start me or others off thinking.
