“Sapiosexual (n): a person who is sexually attracted to intelligence in others. Sapiosexual (adj): of, or relating to, finding intellectual stimulation sexually arousing. Etymology
The origins of the word Sapiosexual is a recently constructed word (neologism) that has come into common usage, particularly on social networking sites where people are self-identifying as sapiosexual. It is a concatenation of the latin root sapio- from sapiens meaning wise or intelligent (itself derived from sapere which means to taste, or rather, to discern) and the latin root -sexualis as it pertains to sexual preferences.” —
