Do you feel high IQ types , are better lovers ? Why ?
I mwill start a study and let you know. Just kidding, I'm married to the love of my life.
High IQ people I know are amazingly good at concentrated focus. I haven't had sex with any of them though. I think that it has more to do with connection than anything else.
I suspect not. I'm guessing that there probably is no study that has been done specifically with IQ in mind when it comes to love and sex. The reason I think not is that really good sex, again just guessing, requires focusing on the moment and not having a mind that tends to wander off to consider totally unrelated matters. Most of my experience with highly intelligent people and myself is that the kind of zeroed in concentration required, in spite of one's knowledge, isn't there. Think of the correlation between education and birth rate and you'll get an idea of what I'm talking about.
No, they think too much... And don't feel enough.. Generally... I'm probably wrong though
Not wrong. Not feeling, or being unable to feel, is a guy thing. Perhaps triply true for Mensans.
That was less true for some of the gays I’ve met.
A reason?
Maybe hormonal, or maybe because mothers talk with daughters and send sons out to play.
My 2nd wife was a librarian and likely had an IQ quite a bit higher than mine but we sure had great sex. My 3rd wife was maybe as much as 20 points lower but our love was the most important factor. One does not need to be clever. I'm naturally extremely lazy with my IQ. Always have been. Maybe I score well because I'm good at maths.
