C) No, Just a coincidence

Intelligence does not repel women, neither intelligent nor dumb ones. What is repellent is where that intelligence is directed and the manner of its manifestation.

What's the diff? I have noticed many instances of intelligence, or it's particular manifestation, repelling women. And men. Many people are put off by someone they sense is smarter than they are.

Especially supervisors. If your boss figures out that you're smarter than he/she is, you're probably out of a job.
