2:45:24 PM Katja Grace: The main thing that puts me off in online dating profiles is lack of ambition to save the world
2:45:35 PM Katja Grace: Or do anything much
2:48:03 PM Michael Blume: *nods*
2:48:07 PM Michael Blume: this is indeed a problem
2:57:55 PM Katja Grace: Maybe there is a dating site for smart ambitious nerds somewhere
2:58:25 PM Katja Grace: Need to set up lw extension perhaps
2:59:02 PM Michael Blume: haha, yes ^^
3:00:40 PM Katja Grace: Plenty of discussion on why few girls, how to get girls, nobody ever says 'oy, girls on lw, want to get together some time?'
3:01:14 PM Michael Blume: somebody really should say that
3:01:34 PM Michael Blume: hell, I'm tempted to just copy that IM into a top-level post and click 'submit'
3:01:48 PM Katja Grace: Haha dare you to

I am very surprised to learn that Katja lacks for sexual attention from nerds who want to improve the world. My being more than twice her age is the only reason I have not tried to start something sexual with Katja. Even then I have more than once suggested we get together for the pleasure of intellectual conversation and friendship.

[I deleted a paragraph here because many participants have opined that men should not use LW to meet women and no one opined otherwise.]

ADDED. I misinterpreted Katja's words in the original, top-level submission. Katja, in fact, gets plenty of attention from male nerds with world-saving ambition, which is exactly the impression I got from meeting her, but somehow I latched onto one particular interpretation of Katja's words and did not let go till many days later, when Katja replied to this here comment.

Don't worry, I meant to imply no such thing! Observing others only :)

It's interesting you introduced the word "sexual". There may be more to this conversation than I'm aware of, but she seemed to mention only dating and getting together, both of which can occur without any sex (at least to begin with).
