I prefer their drooling to be as a result of my naked body rather than not.

I like to be able to hold a decent conversation with somebody and to do that we need to be at a similar sort of level, so about the same as me which isn't difficult to achieve .

I don't ask to see certificates or anything

yeah got to agree with this. The best meets are those where you can have a decent peer to peer conversation without either party coming across as too much of a smart arse to the other

We like the social aspect of swinging and it's a lot easier to click with people if we can have a decent conversation. Not saying we need to have a 2 hour debate about macro-economics or the finer points of string theory before we tear each others clothes off, but it's nice to have a bit of conversation to go with the shagging

Have to admit, we're a bit turned off by terrible spelling and text speak in profiles and messages too! Sorry if that comes across as snobby.

If anyone has to claim they are intelligent on their profile we immediately assume they have a low self esteem and feel they have to boost it by making such claims.

Animal instinct is a better guide to a good playful meet.

"how intelligent do you like your prospective meets to be? "

Depends on whether it's a meet or a club.

In a club... often there isn't much talk before things happen, so who cares?

For a meet, we prefer an in-person non-sex meet first, to see if we get on with a prospective playmate(s) - e.g. in a pub. And whilst intelligence isn't a requirement, we're less likely to click with someone we just can't communicate properly with

At work the majority of people have degrees and I love the stimulating and very geeky conversations.

But for sex, it's not that important, I prefer a good sense of humour and an open mind.

And, anyway (tongue-in-cheek bit here), they might start of being intelligent but after I've f*cked their brains out...

Couple of comments above about people who are supposedly intelligent but have gaps in other ways - this is really common, but seems much more noticeable in people who are otherwise exceptionally bright. ( How could a rocket scientist be so 'dumb'?)

Dyspraxia (clumsiness on steroids, to grossly oversimplify) would be a noticeable one - "fumbles buttons, trips over own feet", as would various manifestations of Aspergers (which might simply show up as a seeming difficulty with social skills), obviously these examples just tip of the proverbial iceberg.

Anyone with sufficient empathy can get past these - just depends on putting in a bit of extra effort to make a connection that's much deeper as a result. Definitely not something that everyone in the swinging world has the patience for though!

Sure, I absolutely love intelligent and creative women but that's not all that matters - so it's not really an issue for me, as long as they're friendly and kind-hearted.

I think we sometimes place too much emphasis on intelligence, as interpreted by certain very subjective criteria, and nowhere near enough on far more worthy attributes like empathy and kindness.

Well, the written test is long and complex, many take their own life once they get to the fifth page (sexual history). The phone interview isn't quite as grueling ("what are you wearing"), and those that make it through to the oral test figure they've done very well and that it was well worth the effort.

Brainy? What I'm "brainy" at someone else might not be, but then they will probably be "brainy" in a different area.

As long as there is a decent conversation and no long moments of silence then that's all I ask for, along with the ability not to be easily offended and able to have a laugh

Someone who can hold a decent conversation while cooking me a delicious meal and pouring a glass of wine, all at the same time, works for me.

Someone who's intelligent enough to know when to stop talking.

Someone who can say all the right things when we get down to some action e.g, wow, you look fantastic; you've got the body of an eighteen year old etc.

All this intellectual benchmark are complete gibberish to a lot of folks. Modesty and Mannerisms matters . Don't expect too much on a swinging site . if you are in a dating site looking for soul-mate fine I will agree with you because that's someone you want to share your life with. But not on a swinging site.

Please I am not advocating people should lower their expectations.

As long as they know the concept of consideration and respect the rest is just details.

As there are several type of intelligences and often people confound intelligence with being cultured.

Insofar as you can hold a conversation in a respectful manners, I'll meet you. Whether your IQ is higher or lower than mine.
