Do people interested in BDSM have higher IQ’s?

[Qmoq]

Good question, I think. There's a comedian and social thinker in Britain who suggested that more intelligent people are more likely to be openly gay because a thick person wouldn't think that such options are available. I won't say if I agree with him or not, but I see his point.

However, I think the above test is a bit flawed. Those with low IQs are less likely to want to read stories, hence they wouldn't come to this site. Plus... my IQ is up around 145-155, but in most online tests it comes out at around 135 because the test doesn't go to the very highest levels.

Finally, if my IQ was 90, I wouldn't put my score down - I'd inflate it by 20 points or not bother!

I know. >.< This hardly makes for a professionally done psychological survey... But I figured since I'm going to major in psychology I should try and organize some amateur "experiments" myself, and am kind of curious anyway.

It has been a very long time fr me since i did the IQ test.. and i was at 125.. but i doubt i am that now..

I think Candice had it right .. it is not so much how intellegent you are.. but more how creative and artistic..

To be honest i feel you have to be able to dream a little before you can expeirence a good BDSM scenerio... whether it be in Real Life or on the net...

I think ones that are extremely intelligent .. may know what is written in a book .. but they forget how to dream in most cases... They are more into realistic thoughts then into imaginative.. and can not allow their bodies or emotions soar..

As far as the Dom/mes spelling areas, and their bad punctuations.. It is because they get lost in the thoughts and their subs, and forget to check spelling.. hehehehe i know even do that.. lol... {tries to get in good with the Dom/mes}

As for math.. giggles i had a grade of 91% .. hmmm funny how i forget at times how to count.. especially when over ones lap... Blushes

But back to the IQ test...that is my opinion... Take it or leave it.. it is up to you..
