Quote from: AimHigh on May 26, 2022, 10:14:50 AMI have an honors degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, I top scored in army officer aptitude testing, and scored 127 on  a recent MENSA (official) test (at 55 YO), my pre LL height was 171 cm, I have two brothers around 5 7, they are both very successful businessmen and Engineers - just saying (not bragging, or complaining no point either way)...

Which was your score at Mensa Dk computarized test? I got 119

My friends told me that societies should try to make morr documentaries to the shortest actors with most successful careers, or shortest businessmen with big companies. This might change the view of societies.

You should also check the 'g factor correlation' and 'how much environmental factors are influencing on the test' of the IQ tests you did.

I know IQ is genetic but also environmental factored(aka 'non-genetic factored'), otherwise the score is not that meaningful.

I can only do IQ tests online because I don't want to pay for them. And I got high scores on all of 'official' and 'non-official' tests and I don't know if those scores can contribute to counting my general intelligence, but it seems my IQ is at least not low in light of official test score eitherway. I don't think the claim 'short people are stupid' is not 'stupid'.

I suggest to take a look at 'Height and Intelligence' wikipedia. This time wiki is doing magnificant jobs in this regard. All in all height and intelligence are correlated but so slightly that you can't make any assumptions thereof.

No one said short men coudn't be successful, but they just don't have sexual appeals and that's all. Height is just a contribution to sexual appeal and everything is not that complex.

I understand what you mean. But there are so many things to do in life. I read that shorter men sometimes don't get fair customer service like average height men do when shopping or dining. That is not good. Everyone is the same.

Well only thing I can say is the problem is the service quality not height, and I don't feel any unfair treatments because of my height in this regard.

Quote from: TranslatingWithWriting on May 26, 2022, 09:05:33 AMI heard height and intelligence are relevant, and I also heard some researches have proven there are some height genes that can determine intelligences or some intelligence genes that can determine intelligences therefore tall guys have more intelligences than short guys.

I googled 'height and intelligence' and I can't see other results than the ones saying they are just relevant, not cause-and-effect.

If this post is offensive I am sorry. I am just asking question, not to put down any short guy deliberately since I am a short guy.

I found the research that may be the one that I am referring to above:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3617178/

But srsly, I don't give any credibility on this kind of IQ tests like the wide range thinggy or else. I don't think any IQ tests that are not done right after birth and 100% detailed(namely can 100% examine the brain functions and have 100% precisions of examining the brain working processes) can speak volumes(even twins can have different life experiences, educations, etc.)

It's plain, 1000 times proven, bullshi*. Don't get another problem to add to any possible height neurosis.
Nevertheless, height neurosis and its ramifications such as depression, yes, can harm cognitive function. And in turn, sadly, some antidepressants and most tranquilizers harm memory capacity. It's another reason in my opinion for a LL candidate to find good continuous support from a good psychologist, or counselling, or coaching, as obligatory part of the whole process, from the beginning, planning phase, until post recovery or until he/she feels necessary or positive.

I did some researches about it recently and I think Wikipedia 'Height and Intelligence' gave the best answer to this question.

And yeah, as the recapulation of the wiki, the statements like 'short ppl are more stupid' is totally bs, not to mention we can find the opposite instances irl like Japanese, which is composed of a lot of intelligent people, including the son of Soft Bank.

Speaking of Japaneses, I read some materials written in the last century, and it seems to me during WWI and WWII, Japaneses were feeling inferior about their race to White and a writer back then described Japanese as 'more stupid, incapable, shorter than White..'(in regard of height it was true).
