What is rarer to find, a genius or an extremely attractive person?

[Zylk]

A Ive seen lots of men that mog gandy even out in the street. There's a lot of attractive people tbh.

Please tell me where you live so I can never go there

How do you know that? We both have probably only met like 1 actual genius in our entire lives.

Im sure there isn't much of a correlation with extreme intellect and asocial behaviour.

There is a high correlation of extreme intellect and asocial behaviour.
They score way higher in autism-related traits. And that is for a reason. Geniuses tend to fixate on solving problems, rather than caring about social norms much. You would find higher social skills among people with slightly higher intelligence, because they tend to be conformist and adapt to social norms.
But geniuses rarely.

Yes, same way everyone can agree on binary yes/no attractiveness. However, comparing gigachads to gigachads, it'll vary, and comparing normies to normies, it'll vary. For example:

this thread is a mog battle of Chico vs Brad Pitt, the votes are 60/40 almost an even split, proving that attractiveness still cannot be agreed on.

So? Who is smarter? Einstein or Hawking?

See the problem?

I see one extremely attractive person at least once a week it would be hard to determine if a saw a genius since you can't exactly know by looking at them on the street

bad comparison, you can't tell someones a genius just by looking like them, unlike you can tell someones obviously attractive

IDK what that is on the scale but at least to the level of someone like Chico

Who said Magnus Carlsen is smart because of his looks?

 

[Zylk]

What's more, he looks like a retard with that short face.

Chico is around 7psl. He's the best looking you can get before becoming magical/alien looking.

Average IQ mogs.

Interesting point. In the IQ scale, when you're a genius, both of them being the same percentile, they would have the same IQ, which is why you can't definitively answer that comparison. However, I'd still say the difference is that IQ tests are repeatable and can be conducted by different people and you can still narrow down the IQ of people with them. If you did a PSL survey, it depends on who the person is judged by.

IQ is the score you get after taking an IQ test. It stands for 'intelligence quotient', it's an attempt to measure a human's intelligence, most modern tests probably correlate with true intelligence at around .5 - .7.

I think it's higher. Based on L&V's IQ data in 117 countries and territories, a 0.91 correlation was found between L&V’s (2012) National IQs and Altinok et al.’s (2013) National Achievement Estimates. The correlations between these two estimates of national cognitive ability and GMAT scores in turn were 0.74.

At the individual level it's usually 0.8:

• Deary, I. J., Strand, S., Smith, P., & Fernandes, C. (2007). Intelligence and educational achievement. Intelligence, 35(1), 13-21.
• Kaufman, S. B., Reynolds, M. R., Liu, X., Kaufman, A. S., & McGrew, K. S. (2012). Are cognitive g and academic achievement g one and the same g? An exploration on the Woodcock–Johnson and Kaufman tests. Intelligence, 40(2), 123-138.
• Zaboski II, B. A., Kranzler, J. H., & Gage, N. A. (2018). Meta-analysis of the relationship between academic achievement and broad abilities of the Cattell-Horn-Carroll theory. Journal of school psychology, 71, 42-56.

We can't directly measure intellect though. All we can do is correlate it with other stuff.

That's where the idea of G comes from, all we can do is correlate different things to get an idea of intelligence.

All this stuff is also influenced by stuff like ADHD, culture etc, so the waters are muddied.
