Despite having “sexual” as its root, sapiosexuality is an attraction-defining term, not to be confused with a definition of sexuality. Like other attraction-defining terms, it’s not exclusive.
Traditionally speaking, the terms heterosexual and homosexual tend to be exclusive by omitting attraction to the opposite sex. I was clarifying that a sapiosexual is not exclusively attracted to intellectuals.
*Now that sexuality is defined as a non-binary spectrum, some may disagree with my use of “opposite sex.” I admit I don’t know the correct way to convey the idea. I don’t mean to offend.
