My first post on GD. Wooh!

Anyway, just wanted to say I always find this sort of stuff fascinating. I watched a documentary a few years back that took a whole heap of people that were considered geniuses in many aspects. A musical prodigy, chess grandmaster, quantam physicist, world famous artist and a guy from Mensa who was an "IQ test specialist". There were othe people as well. Anyway they gave them all a standard IQ test and then gave thema whole lot of other intelligence tests. Lateral thinking, logical thing, expression through art stuff like that. Interestingly enough the physicist and the IQ specialist scored highest on the IQ test , however they were the best and worst respectively overall on the other tests.

I just find it interesting how we as society sometimes say because someone didn't do well at school they aren't smart.

Anyway my answers.

Which are you more? book smart
Which do you prefer in friends? street smart
Which do you prefer in a partner (sexual/romantic)? street smart
Which do you prefer in a dominant/ submissive? no preference
Which do you think is most beneficial? It's not the tools you have but how you use them.
