Intelligence doesn’t relate to a visceral feeling, like charisma or power or status or wealth. It has nothing to do with social standing or living your best life. It’s just a metric, like blood pressure or megahertz. If anything it has dork connotations. It’s not surprising it doesn’t sound hot. It is good for social proof—if you claim to like intelligence you sound discerning.
