Do people interested in BDSM have higher IQ’s?

[Ozme52]

Just that the Doms can't seem to spell worth a shit. ROFLOL! LOL Just my copper tarn worth, ~blizz~

Oh look! A literary reference....

OMG! It's absolutely true. My theory why: Their brains are so busy that their fingers just can't keep up.

And let's not even mention the punctuation...

*gg* It does seem sometimes that subs are much better at writing and discussing, maybe 'cause we have to explain things to ourselves, and sometimes you even have to encourage your husband to get onto the road *winks at Jeanne* Not putting down Doms as a class, of course...

To be honest, I would be worried about taking a IQ test and find out how low my score would be.
Would I have to switch from submissive to Domme?

I hope we're all amused with ourselves.

If we're all finished teasing the poor dom/mes, perhaps you can all line up, bend over, and show how good you are at counting too.

Oh dear. Note to self: teasing Doms about their spelling and punctuation = bad.

But - how can I resist such an easy target?!

*and now I'm really in trouble*

Opps...sorry Sir. My bad. ***giggles***
But oh, how I would love be be doing a little counting with my Master right about now.

I would, but I suck at math and I'd probably lose count.

Oh - you don't want to lose count, Playful. Then you have to start over. Not good.

[gloombunny]

Sooner or later every subculture or niche hobby gets around to deciding that its members must be smarter or cooler than everyone else. I don't buy it.

It's no skin off of my paddle if I have to start over...

[Polaris]

Can't we just establish that we are smarter, better and cooler than all the rest? I agree that IQ tests are a insufficient means to measure ones intelligence...especially as there are so many different types of intelligence that those tests completely ignore (emotional or social intelligence, for example). It strikes me, however, that BDSM people seem to be rather well educated, smart and in general thinking and reflecting a lot...I do believe that there is some kind of connection between intelligence (in its widest sense) and an inclination towards BDSM...but that might just be my vanity

Yep!

[Ozme52]

Yep!

Not mocking me are you jeanne?

I might be artistically creative, but I truly suck at math, therefore I do not see a red arse in my forseeable future!
