Date: November 10th, 2025 11:21 AM Author: Vermilion Exhilarant Whorehouse Headpube 6’5” ugly, dumb, straight white dudes who come from poor or MC backgrounds are the demo that lost the most relative to prior generations. You can probably still do ok as a sales Chad or a basketball “trainer” but even stuff that a 6’5” could make work easily 20+ years ago like being a bartender is not available to nearly the same extent anymore. If I am also black or Latino I choose that option and will coast to my VP title at whatever still woke mega corp and do my best not to sexually harass too hard on my way to that outcome, but if I remain white or have to switch to Asian then it’s genius inceldom and grinding hard enough to support a 50-100k per year escort habit.

A white dude with a 95 IQ would stick out as the stupid guy at a mechanic shop or a building trade job site, but I’ve known plenty of 95 IQ waiters and bartenders in my time.

Date: November 10th, 2025 11:29 AM Author: sadistic haunted graveyard chad 6'5. 160 iq is too much, that's when you start being so neurotic and smart that you can't fit in socially.
95iq is in the meaty part of the bell curve. it's not so dumb that you won't be able to function. |
|
Date: November 10th, 2025 12:05 PM Author: Vermilion Exhilarant Whorehouse Headpube It’s pretty dumb. 95 IQ is barely literate given that you are right at the threshold where you aren’t really capable of working memory ie the literacy limit at 90 IQ and below is usually sounding out a single word but the ability to process and retain enough input to read a complex sentence is usually lacking. Sitting through an hour long episode of a documentary show about an engaging topic like a serial killer or a championship pro sports team in your hometown is still hard for a 95 IQmo because they will fail to retain basic facts in the narrative and will get lost several times before the hour is over. They would normally need to watch with someone else so they can ask questions and check their understanding periodically and would still probably struggle if you gave them a comprehension test at the end.

compared 150 LSAT to 145 LSAT and 135 LSAT. or 150, 155, and 165. |

Date: November 10th, 2025 12:58 PM Author: Vermilion Exhilarant Whorehouse Headpube Agreed. The massive drop off in outcomes for IQs below 95 is an aesthetically pleasing mirror to the drop off in benefits v costs and inconveniences of height above 6’5”. But it is true that 95 IQmos are dumb and in a functioning academic environment they struggle to complete 12th grade and typically max out reading ability at a level significantly below 12th grade.

Date: November 10th, 2025 1:10 PM Author: sadistic haunted graveyard chad not true. it's 37% of the population. 37% of the population aren't struggling to complete 12th grade or struggling to get to a 12th grade reading level because of poor cognition. the cognition of the iq band from 95 to 105 isn't that significant, and a 100 iq normie would have scores within the range over multiple tests.
this hypo is basically "would you rather be a chad normie or neurotic shortmo." i'd pick the chad normie. if the hypo was 140 iq and 5'8 i would choose that. past like 145iq more iq becomes a liability. just like height, in that 6'5 you're very tall but not a hulking monster, whereas a 7'4 andre the giant type is going to struggle to lead a normal life. |

Date: November 10th, 2025 1:55 PM Author: Vermilion Exhilarant Whorehouse Headpube You wildly overestimate literacy rates. > 1 in 5 US adults is illiterate and more than half the population reads 6th grade level or below, with only a third of that attributed to foreign borns. Ie there’s your 37%, they would have a hard time with Holes or Hatchet and wouldn’t be able to handle Huck Finn or Lord of the Flies.

Date: November 10th, 2025 2:29 PM Author: sadistic haunted graveyard chad >because of poor cognition
a 95iq person is essentially average.
i did a bunch of graduate work in cognitive science. you pass many people 95iq on the street every day. 95iq isn't that dumb and is certainly capable of reading at a 12th grade level. definitionally. the ones that don't can't read because of environmental factors (ESL, etc.) not because they don't have the cognitive strength to learn. |
|
Date: November 10th, 2025 5:28 PM Author: Vermilion Exhilarant Whorehouse Headpube The fact that this result is repeated across tens of millions of people consistently is the entire point. I can stipulate that under ideal conditions a 95 IQ person can be taught to read Shakespeare and write intelligent essays about what he reads and many 95 IQ people are capable of reading above a 6th grade level if we focus only on their cognitive ceiling, and that we all encounter 95 IQ people every day who don’t stick out as having noticeably underpowered brains. But in the real world 95 IQmos read at a 6th grade level the vast majority of the time because it’s a huge waste of educational resources to try to get them to do more than that v just tracking him for jobs that don’t require so much reading all the damn time daggummit.

Date: November 10th, 2025 12:18 PM Author: Vermilion Exhilarant Whorehouse Headpube Very solid hypo crafting, OP. I think it’s fair to postulate ~7 points of IQ per inch exchange rate using this range of ~75% of adult male height outcomes, where it’s stipulated that being 99.5+% in height is the cusp of both rarity and diminishing returns that it’s correct to exclude and being bottom 25th% in height is a fate so depressing as to be not worth contemplating.
I think the sweet spot is clearly 6’ 130 - 6’4 102 but it’s instructive to illustrate the point that in male mate selection and generalized value terms being 5’9” and 125 IQ is the equivalent of being 6’4+” and legit fully retarded. |

The hypo would actually be more interesting if the 160 IQ came with a true manlet height. 5'5" or something. 5'8" is too close to average. But 5'5" would give you that proper chip on your shoulder to maximize the 160 IQ. |

Date: November 10th, 2025 10:12 PM Author: trip buff partner principal's office I don't think this is close. 160 is a legit genius-level IQ and 5'8" isn't that short. With the extra points, you could probably earn enough money for limb-extending surgery, or you could just marry a petite woman who's like 5'3", or maybe a chick who is your own height (although she might not truly ever love you, lol).
Also, you spend more of your life in a position when your ability to land strange pussy at a bar or on dating apps may not be helpful than your average 20-50 year old might think. Once you've settled down, gotten married, and had kids, that height is wasted. Even if you get divorced, if you're 50, no one gives a fuck if you're 6'5". Way more important to not be fat, have your hair, not be wrinkly, etc. And it's zero help the last 20+ years of your life (and probably decreases your life expectancy slightly, though it takes the shitty last years). |
