@Jens_Rasmussen @LukeAlmighty @victor @NEETzsche i have my own psychometric for that, and you have been assigned number 6.

@xue @victor @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche Can I negotiate my way up to a 7 if I say "please"?

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche You will have to redo the test...
It is scientific experiment after all

@Jens_Rasmussen @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche @victor You dont see how ridiculous that is?
Its more magic than science, it all comes down to belief

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @xue @NEETzsche
Well, next time you hear anyone describe EQ, take a moment to think, if the exact situation they describe would play differently for me, or for Big Booba Babe.

@LukeAlmighty @victor @xue @NEETzsche EQ isn't about what happens in social situations, it's about understanding it. And also to some degree about being understandable in a social situation.

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @xue @NEETzsche
Sure... and it magically drops at the age of 35 for most women.

@LukeAlmighty @victor @xue @NEETzsche I still don't think we're talking about the same thing. Women above the age of 35 who don't understand others or can't read social situations have generally never been able to, from what I've seen.

If IQ is just a made-up number, then what’s the best way to measure someone’s intelligence?

Or are you saying “it’s complicated” and that we shouldn’t try to do that? I could agree with that, in some sense. I don’t need a number to know that someone is either retarded or way smarter than me.

Sometimes I’m tricked by apparent confidence or humility, e.g. someone can seem smarter if they act confident (which is basically the entire basis of modern medicine), but eventually it becomes clear that they don’t actually know what they’re talking about.

It’s not possible to trick an IQ test with social confidence, though.

Also, don’t forget that IQ is generally a good predictor of success in life, for what that’s worth.

(Here’s the full article from the picture: https://www.gwern.net/docs/iq/2002-firkowskamankiewicz.pdf)

@victor @LukeAlmighty @Jens_Rasmussen @NEETzsche
I love that you value my intelligence so much that you have highlighted the important sentence.
Im not saying we shouldnt do that, or that the IQ test are flawed - they do what they are supposed to, measure how good you are solving mazes and recognizing patterns
Im saying it is not intelligence, but an arbitrary test of certain skills and the whole idea, that you could simplify intelligence to certain number, to be set on a leader board is whole another type of disgusting.

Intelligence is not IQ and i just refuse to follow that belief, im not agreeing to subscribe to that it in terms of pop-culture.
It is a test, with a normal distribution of results, that measures how good you are at solving this arbitrary type of tests

Also, you cant cheat on IQ tests with your personality, but you can prepare for one and get better results.

Also i included highlighted sentence from article for you too.

Ok, let me explain it this way.
If you have booba, every conversation you have begins with goal of the opposite party to be as likable as possible.
If you don't have booba, this expectation is reversed.

So, there is no "social skill" actually needed on the side of the woman (relatively speaking) to get desired result.

It is as if you were comparing selling stuff to giving away money. The skill required to complete task is in a completelly different reality.

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @xue @NEETzsche
If you take a look for example at "self made man", Nora Vincent was going to a date disguised as a man. She brutally failed as expected, but as soon, as she said, that she had booba, women were more interested in actually dating her.

EVEN WOMEN CARE ABOUT BOOBA!!!!

@LukeAlmighty @victor @xue @NEETzsche That's not what the conclusion from that little interaction is at all.
The conclusion is that as soon as she revealed herself to be a woman with an interesting story to tell she became both much more interesting and much less of a potential hazard, and thus they started talking to her.

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @xue @NEETzsche
Wow...
You missed the point of my oversymplification really hard.

Of course, my point was actually about the male empathy gab, but that topic is too advanced for now.

@LukeAlmighty @victor @xue @NEETzsche But EQ has nothing to do with making others be likable, as I've been trying to say.
EQ (Emotional Quotient) is about being able to understand others. And not just verbally.

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @xue @NEETzsche
Except it's fake. It is measured by self report of how well can you maintain relationships. If EQ was real, and actually did exist in women as described, divorce courts would not exist.

@LukeAlmighty @victor @xue @NEETzsche EQ is real, measurements for it are horrible or outright bullshit, women are not particularly good at it unless the subject matter is other women or perhaps young children.

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @xue @NEETzsche
If you want to debate about the ability for empathy, I could agree there.

But EQ has nothing to do with it. Equating EQ to empathy is the same as equating feminism to equal rights. These terms are so masaquered by common understanding, that using them in some "specialized meaning" is pointless.

A great way to trigger people is to refer to IQ as “intelligence.” Just put the two together outright lol, lmao

@NEETzsche @victor @xue @Jens_Rasmussen
I don't get it.......

IQ is a measure of intelligence. Most people, even IQ nationalist types who take pride in their Mensa scores, squirm at the thought of IQ really being accurate enough to merit just calling it "intelligence"

@LukeAlmighty @victor @xue @NEETzsche But EQ does equal empathy, among other things?
No one except you uses EQ as synonymous for "charm" or "attractiveness".

@Jens_Rasmussen @xue @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche

There is such thing as people skills and empathy, but EQ is just a made-up way to make women feel "included" in the workplace.

"Men have higher IQ, but women have higher EQ, and EQ is actually more important in a business setting where forming connections is critical!"

That sort of thing.

>"Men have higher IQ, but women have higher EQ, and EQ is actually more important in a business setting where forming connections is critical!"

🥒 😋

@victor @xue @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche >Being allowed to recognize that men have higher IQ
What is this? The 90's?

Jokes aside, EQ is an attempted way to measure empathy, sympathy and other social skills. The fact that this attempt has little to no success at producing an actually good test of measuring these skills discredits the term "EQ" as a whole, and I can understand why you'd reject it's usage for that reason.
It can more or less be translated into "social skills" the same way IQ can be translated into "intelligence", if you're using it off-handedly and in a non-scientific way.
Example:
"I have high IQ" = "I am intelligent"
"I have high EQ" = "I am good with people"

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @xue @NEETzsche
> "social skills"
These two women ask you to do a task for them. Do you think it's "social skills" that will make the difference?

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @xue @NEETzsche
And yes, the one on the right is "good with people".

Good enough actually to make her a millionare without working.

@LukeAlmighty @victor @xue @NEETzsche You can be "good with people" to some extent without having high EQ, just like you can appear smart to some extent without having high IQ. Your point is irrelevant.
EQ is about your ability to understand, not to manipulate.

@Jens_Rasmussen @xue @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche

“Non-scientific” is the ONLY correct way to use EQ, and to a lesser extent, IQ.

But try telling that to the office bimbos of the world.

“I’m very good with people, and it’s easy to understand and be understood. I just have a naturally high EQ!”

…Says the woman with the big boobs.

But try telling her that people only like her for her appearance, and not because she actually brings anything of value to the company table, and you’ll instantly get a sense for what her real “EQ” is, regardless of whatever retarded test she took.

@victor @xue @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche I don't know any office bimbos, so I can't relate to that scenario.

@victor @xue @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche @Jens_Rasmussen IQ correlates well with objective measures of the brain including brain size, general factor of perception, flicker fussion rate, reaction speed, and actually shows up in genetic measures, twin studies put it at 80% genetic and we're constantly finding new genes for it with SNP studies

Never heard of such a thing with EQ

@applejack @victor @xue @NEETzsche @Jens_Rasmussen
As I said before, It does exist in EQ.

EQ corelates with boob size.

@LukeAlmighty @victor @xue @NEETzsche @Jens_Rasmussen I've heard of higher IQ men preferring smaller breasts and women with mental disorders evolving large breasts as an offset, but not that

@applejack @victor @xue @NEETzsche @Jens_Rasmussen
Yes, but EQ is measured by response of an average man.

@LukeAlmighty @applejack @victor @NEETzsche @Jens_Rasmussen i really like, how it all turned out, as it o b j e c t i v e l y proofs, that your IQs dont matter and its all made up for lulz and scientific grands

@applejack @victor @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche @Jens_Rasmussen
wow, we are at brain sizes again xD

@victor @xue @LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche @Jens_Rasmussen The best way to judge women with big boobs when they say they "work well in a team", "are very social", "people like me", etc is to do the double blind test.

Hide behind one of her boobs and ask her about the other one. If she lies, she's not the one telling the truth, so you go through the other door. *rickroll.avi*

@Jens_Rasmussen @victor @xue @NEETzsche
OK lightbulb.

Will the scenario of "being critisized" play differently if you're attractive?

Do you have more reason's to "be positive", when everyone is suspiciously kind to you?

These are the questions from the test. I am sorry, this is not an empathy test. And neither is it a self-awareness test.

It is "how many people are trying to make my life easy in hope to get in my pants" test.

@LukeAlmighty @victor @xue @NEETzsche >Will the scenario of "being critisized" play differently if you're attractive?
Probably? You might get critizised for different things or by different people than if you were ugly, that's almost certain. But your reaction to criticism, in terms of whether it makes you defensive or whether you take it constructively can also be completely unrelated to your looks. For example if you are criticized for your skill at something by people who can't see you.

That test you have images of looks retarded if it's supposed to be an EQ test though. Not at all related to others, but about how you see yourself, which is something completely different.

@Jens_Rasmussen @LukeAlmighty @victor @NEETzsche EQ is graphic equalizer and it is very useful tool

@LukeAlmighty @Jens_Rasmussen @victor @NEETzsche what about women who stuff their bra, or who have breast enlargements.
Are their brains getting rewired?

@xue @victor @NEETzsche @Jens_Rasmussen
Go home, you're drunk.

@LukeAlmighty @victor @NEETzsche @Jens_Rasmussen nigga denies existence of well established tool
