Yes, it sounds like an old cliché but you cannot find me one instance of such an exchange in any major television network, I'll bet. It's funny that we live in the age of communication yet it has only enabled us to exhibit our worst instincts to each other (such as tribalism) rather than discover, connect and learn, if you look at the big picture in any general-access platform.

That sort of attraction to intelligence is called "sapiosexuality." I'm quite sapiosexual myself. A woman who might not be conventionally beautiful is extraordinally attractive to me if she's well-spoken and knows of what she speaks or writes. There's almost certainly a similar term for physical attraction to one with a well-developed sense of humor, but I don't know it.
