Hear, hear. Ever since I was very young (say, age 7) I've always fallen for brainy, observant and compassionate boys (later, men) - and it hardly mattered what they looked like. Pecs may appeal to your Id, but oh, you kid ...
On the contrary, consider what Robin Williams said in The Dead Poets' Society: Men evolved language to woo women.
And in a recent film, Sean Connery tells an aspiring young black writer that not only will women want to bed him if he writes a book, they'll even want to bed him if he writes a bad book.
So, there are more ways of demonstrating reproductive fitness than merely meeting certain physical criteria.
Of course. Being literate and poetic doesn't get you laid nearly as easily as a set of hard pecs / nice butt. One has to have priorities.
