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.

a pretentious asshat that pretends they're only attracted to intelligence to make themselves seem smarter.
"Oh yeah, John says he's sapiosexual"
"He's just saying that because he got an A+ and thinks only people who can 'match his intelligence' deserve him"
"What a dick."

A person who values intelligence as a key feature of attraction. No matter how attractive their interest is, the moment they speak and prove themselves of sub par intelligence to the desired level, it is an instant deal breaker and turn off.
This is not to say that they date 'unattractive' people or that physical appearance does not matter; the individual just does not put as much importance or emphasis on attractiveness.
If you find yourself drawn to intelligent conversation and more attracted to people the more intelligent they prove themselves. The opposite being even with someone of extreme attractiveness, the moment they say or do something that makes them look ignorant, idiotic, immature, etc. the attraction/connection is instantly vaporized.

My significant other may not be the definition of physically fit but he is exceptionally smart, it is a perfect situation since I identify as a sapiosexual.
I tried dating a model once, he was super ripped!... The problem was, i made a little chemistry joke and asked him to pass the sodium chloride and all I received in return was a blank stare! Needless to say, this sapiosexual decided being just friends was best.

A word for a cheap cocksucker's way of indicating or pretending to indicate that they are interested in things above the waist.
For you see, the numerous fashionable sexuality words that prop up ever so often - are mostly conjured by the same kind of boring cunts (male and female). The type are desperately hoarding attention so much so, that they wouldn't be seen relevant if they stopped premiering a new flavor of tantalizing bullshit once a week.
As its not enough to say you are really into the smart folks - you just gotta have some fancy way of presenting or it wouldn't matter otherwise.

Sapiosexual? Da fuk does that mean babe?
-We can't keep up with the kids and their pitiful sexual situation. Someone figured they couldn't use "smartsexual", since it would make them sound like the mopey wankers that they are, so they had to spend their best effort and mangle something off Latin as they usually do, in hoping that the result would appeal and linger long enough for recognition. But, let us join crossed lips and burry memory of it.
