Answer 6

You're actually onto something. I wish I could find the article where I read this and if I do, I'll come back and post it as my source, but..yes..you're right.  g*y people are smarter on average.

A research study showed that on average, homosexuals are one standard deviation above the mean on intellectual abilities over heterosexuals, and transsexuals were two standard deviations above the mean over heterosexuals.

Answer 7

I think so, lol. But you can't connect a sexual orientation with intelligence for a whole group of people. =)

Answer 8

intelligence has nothing to do with sexual orientation.

Answer 9

I think your grouping them all together and i doubt you have actually

looked at statistics

i'm not saying a lot of g*y people are smart

i'm saying your grouping a type of people together without any evidence to back up your hypothesis

Answer 10

yes, I'm smarter then the straight people i know

Answer 11

No and you just proved it with such a moronic thought.

Answer 12

There is no reason at all to believe that there is any connection between sexual orientation and intelligence.

There may be a correlation between "being worldly and informed" and homosexuals being "out of the closet" because there is a lot of anti-g*y sentiment toward homosexuals and being more worldly and informed may help a homosexual to be more open about their preferences than someone who lives in a smaller world of bigotry and intolerance.

"Worldly and informed" may give the appearance of more intelligence, but it is actually just "worldly and informed".

Answer 13

I've seen some pretty smart straight people and I've seen some pretty smart g*y people...and vice versa...a LOT of really ignorant straight people and g*y people alike...  Unfortunately, being smart isn't the 'cure all' everyone thinks it is...'being smart' may be 'categorized' into being smart about chemistry...or being smart about ones health...or 'whatever'...  Being smart and being disciplined and focused is a 'sure sign' of success, however...  So, if you're in school and you just think everything will 'fall your way'...you're duping yourself into oblivion...  You may inherit your families wealth but no one says you're even going to hang on to it...  You best develop your skills (most everyone has 'something' they're really good at)...  And, in the end, it doesn't make any difference whether you're g*y or straight, you're intelligence will depend upon how you 'personally' get along.  Many consider 'being smart' as a sign of 'personal wealth'...some consider 'personal wealth' in terms of money.  I consider 'personal wealth' in terms of personal happiness and being content with what God gives me...  So, what really is 'smart' any way...
