I use to cope that higher IQ people were better suited for certain difficult jobs/skills but otherwise were no different from the rest of us, and that low IQers can still out-compete them in other areas such as social skills. However when I look back at it in hindsight I struggle to think of any real world examples of this. In fact an easy case can be made that low IQ almost insures crap personality traits such as impulsiveness (no pattern recognition ability means dangers go unnoticed), bad hygiene, loudness/obnoxious behavior, arrogance/rudeness, violent behavior etc.
I have observed this behavior in most blatantly low IQ households I'm aware off. Meanwhile every single charismatic person I know has also had above average IQ (one of my nephews is a doctor and he is both good looking and charismatic) has had at least passable social skills and likability. The stereotype about the advanced upper classes and stupid commoner are true.
It's over for lowIQcels.
