intellectual daddies 📚🖊️🕯️
lately i’ve been daydreaming about intellectual dads 🫠 is this anything?
dads who teach/work in academia and wear cute suits to work and let their lil girl pick out their tie for the day. or if he’s a more casual dad, he lets her pick out his band tee for the day (arguably hotter)
dads with a library full of foucault, butler, jung, and fanon, as well as angelina ballerina and chrysanthemum and if you give a mouse a cookie.
dads who get into passionate, excited intellectual banter with their smart lil daughter and get overwhelmed with pride for how intelligent she is
dads who ask their daughter’s opinion on every piece of art, every book, every movie, every album they consume, and values her opinion greatly
dads who say “tell me about that book you’re reading” while they’re changing their girl’s diaper and seeing how far she can get before she’s giggling and babbling
dads who keep a littlest pet shop/polly pocket/other little trinket from their daughter at their desk at work
dads who are anti-ai and instead of using any kind of generative ai, creates things by hand, like little notes and doodles for their girl
dads who know their girl is their intellectual equal, but still like to melt her brain and reduce her to a whiny needy thing
dads who call their girl “smart girl” and “clever girl”
