So what exactly qualifies as "dumb girl"? My line of reasoning is that most girls who get in college are not dumb (i.e. they don't have below average intelligence).

Overall, women have surpassed men in terms of completing secondary and post-secondary education with the gender gap almost completely reversed. In 2006, 10.3% of males and 8.3% of females dropped out of high school. In 2005/2006, women earned 62% of Associate's degrees, 58% of Bachelor's degrees, 60.0% of Master's degrees, and 48.9% of Doctorates.
Not only has the average US person at least been to college, for which at least average intelligence is needed, but most of those people are women. That would imply that well over 50% of women (about 70% by my estimate) count as "smart" (the fact that fields they graduate in are unemployable doesn't mean that intelligence isn't needed to graduate in them). Also, I'm pretty sure that the fact that almost all women have hamsters is not at odds with them being smart, i.e. being good at solving problems and communicating, finishing education, finding work and so on.
Then there is also this:

We hypothesized that women’s intelligence, given an environment where women can use that intelligence to attain educational and career opportunities, would be: (1) positively related to their willingness to engage in short-term sexual relationships, (2) negatively related to their desire for qualities in a partner that indicated wealth and status, and (3) negatively related to their endorsement of traditional gender roles in romantic relationships. These predictions were supported.
In
Samseau's two conversations, the first one, simply because she can follow complex innuendo, would be better classified as "smart girl" (i.e. average girl, following the estimate above) and the one above as "smart BITCHY girl". A dumb girl should be the third example, who just stares at you or ignores your witty teasing and instead starts telling you about something irrelevant.
Granted, there might be another case of different assumptions at work in the definition of "easy". By "easy" I mean a short timeline to sex, willingness to engage in casual sex and a mercenary approach to changing partners. For someone else, it might just mean how much game is needed to get her into bed, regardless of time involved.
What would these two girls be classified as on the smart-dumb/easy-hard axis?

Finally, as WIA has said, all of this might be moot because he phrased the question as how smart the girl is in comparison to
you. I'm certainly wiser than most women, but since I don't think I'm especially smart, that might explain why I give them so much credit
