If Kant was so smart, why did he die a virgin?

"He never married, but seemed to have a rewarding social life — he was a popular teacher and a modestly successful author even before starting on his major philosophical works. He had a circle of friends with whom he frequently met, among them Joseph Green, an English merchant in Königsberg."

Does how much sex you have and intelligence correlate?

>> No.14292640

>>14292489
It's probably a bell curve thing.
Retards don't fornicate because nobody wants to touch retards. Geniuses are probably too busy minding intellectual affairs to have sex.
And then there's us, who aren't exactly geniuses, just slightly above average IQ, but still don't have sex (either because we're volcels or incels).

I feel like it might be a double bellcurve. Or an uncanny valley of intelligence. There is a point we’re you are intelligent enough to discuss things, but have a hard time putting them in practice and fall in on themselves, ie something-cel, but then once you are even more intelligent, a full on Kant, social as well as theoretical situations become easy for you.

He fucked prostitutes. Keep in mind Koningsberg at the time was a central port city. Many sailors/international people came in and out of the town. Tons of hookers.

Yep. Before the sexual revolution it was a given that unmarried men would visit prostitutes or have a mistress from the lower classes holed up somewhere
