Sapiosexual: apparently it suggests that a person is attracted to another person's
intelligence and wits, rather than their physical appearance. I'd strongly suggest for the term to be replaced though, because of the connotations it carries; the Latin and Greek origins of these kind of words tend to make them universal and they rapidly get used all around the globe. "Sapio" might both
mean "to have sense" or "to taste" in Latin, but it also means "rotten" in Greek, therefore the word hints at and sounds etymologically related to
necrophilia and/or caniballism.
“All these novelty, millennial neologisms
like "
metrosexual", "gamification", "sapiosexual" and the
like , are truly getting on my nerves” my middle-aged Greek college tutor said, before he facepalmed in despair.
