Intellidating Goes Upmarket

Date smart, think art…

Speed dating and clubbing just don’t seem to fill the void for many lonely hearts any more. "Intellidating" is being acclaimed as the hot new way to romance.

Debating societies, art classes and poetry readings — all are thriving as dating turns cerebral.

The trend has been spotted by a wide range of social commentators and even prompted the heavyweight magazine The Economist to declare: "Seriousness is booming."

One entrepreneur acting on the trend is Ginny Greenwood, whose Futures Squared club aims at cash-rich, time-poor singles.

"You are not concentrating on what is happening from the navel to the knee — you are connecting to the grey matter," she remarked.

"They have got the income and the intelligence: they just need someone to organise their social diaries."

"I think intellidating is a great phrase," she said. "I’m sure it will end up in the dictionary. If you are an intelligent person in an important position at work, you are not going to hang out in a bar or go speed dating."

If music is the food of love, then poetry feeds the soul as novelist Josephine Hart discovered when organising her sell-out Poetry Hour meetings.

"It really has quite an important effect on people," said Hart who has offered Bob Geldof reading Yeats, Ralph Fiennes on Auden and Roger Moore reciting Kipling.

"The mind is stretched," she added. "People have wept at some of the evenings.

"I do hope that intellidating does enter people’s consciousness. There is such a dearth of anything that is profound," she told Reuters. "Young people are very hungry for something that has depth and importance."

John Gordon and Jeremy O’Grady set up Intelligence Squared because they wanted to make debating sexy. So far every debate they have organised, has sold out in advance.

"I think there is a hunger for this stuff in a world that is both more complex but also dumbing down," O’Grady mentioned. "There is an awful gap in one’s emotional needs."

So cerebral daters out for rarefied seduction are treated to mind-stretching debates like "Better rough justice than another 9/11" and "The rise of China spells the decline of the West."

"Whether it is dating or debating is debatable but this represents an opportunity for people who want intelligent dating.

Thats why smart "Singles" combine the best of both worlds, by combining the fun of  "Intellidating" with the services of popular Australian Dating sites like Adult Matchmaker
