I think the height and weight correlation is about nutrition and proper developmental health

I get that's probably the intent, but all it's doing is giving us the average IQ of certain professions. Presumably the men in social work are also lower IQ than the men (and women) in physics and engineering. Without a further breakdown of the men and women in those professions, it's not telling us much. It does show us that women are less likely to end up in a cognitively stressful profession, but it's common knowledge that STEM is dominated by men.

Listen I'm a NEET and about 6/10 on the muh soggy knee scale, but I actually wish that women were successful. I wish that they were all presidents and CEOs and SEALs and so on. Because carrying the burden of being these things and having to live up to the expectation or especially competing against people in these positions is objectively a terrible experience and there's minimal satisfaction in overcoming it. They should be the ones thrown into the rat race while I should be a stay at home NEET dad shitting up 4chan 16 hours a day with some beta female with a low socioeconomic status thinking that she's all clever by tying the knot with me. Why do I want to assume these positions anyway like all the other males? To pump up my sexual market value and get sex, of course. There's zero actual personal satisfaction in chasing them if social status and sex wasn't the end goal. Would I need to do all that when I could just be getting that sex for free instead? Think about it logically, you hit the gym once in a while and that's all you'll ever need to be a father who reproduced in that society, with some female who settled for you because she thought that she wasn't on the level of the other alpha female CEOs around her and therefor had to settle for you, like we males do for females right now, whipping ourselves like retards for not having a luxury car and apartment like the alpha males do as if any of this matters at all if it wasn't for sex.

>I think the height and weight is about nutrition and proper developmental health
if the weight is in healthy BMI range, in the case of doing analysis the BMI or "BMI relative to optimum" would be a decent feature.
>if you're tall you are more likely to have been properly fed
this is not a deal in western nations as starvation does not exist, there are no prolonged hunger periods anymore, i dont think that "properly fed" is a good classification i would instead go for something like "nutrition/quality of nutrition"
more discrete: healthy and balanced diet VS McDicks as possible extrema, as undernourishment is not such an issue as poor eating habits.
i would also wager that at a certain point caloric intake becomes negatively correlated with academic performance, without bothering to pull articles out of my ass.
>if you're fat you are less able to control
a hen-egg problem, what is first; the fatty or his poor impulse control
i would go with the latter.
this quite popular experiment should be related to significance of impulse control.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanford_marshmallow_experiment
>which correlates with self control and intelligence
well you are using a bit of circular logic in the last two lines, even if i would agree with the overall sentiment.
the important fact in my opinion is impulse control and perhaps an amount of self reflection that is seemingly exclusive to more gifted individuals.
i see the fatness more as a manifestation of poor habit, discipline etc. (which obv. has adverse effects on other parts of life).
perhaps its even fair to go as far to say that fatness is a physiognomic manifestation of inferior mind and also unfavourable genetic predisposition.

not the dude but measuring bodyfat is a bit iffy, as how the fat is distributed on the frame depends individually on genetics.
the fat that is the biggest health hazard is visceral fat.
using bodyfat% as a metric brings up lots of other questions that might not be productive to engage in
BMI seems much more conclusive and robust as a metric as it already incorporates two pieces of information and puts them into relation
maybe its also important to point out that what BMI is considered healthy depends also on the age
from a practical standpoint picking bodyfat as a feature is impractical as its hard to measure and likely most literature is targeted towards addressing BMI
i also dont see how bodyfat would give significant relevant additional information over just using BMI

Most people aren't elite athletes. BMI's biggest failure is that it doesn't account for skinny fat people, which are common. Overfat people are more common than BMI would lead you to believe due to it being increasingly common for a person to be skinny fat.

There's no concept more misused than "IQ". IQ doesn't mean that you're productive, intelligent, skilled or will be appreciated. It merely means you have somes sort of potential, not that you actually have the drive or discipline to achieve anything in the field you're said to have potential in. Your question resonates this sort of humblebrag STEMfag attitude that's been plaguing (social) media as of late. STEMfags who pat themselves on the bag for being "smarter", while they compare themselves to those who write their laws, solve their problems, tell them how to live their lives and aren't narcissistic enough to even take an IQ test in the first place. At the end of the day, it's not the autistic STEMfag whose "intelligent", it's the lawyers and economists who utilize the STEMfags approximation and turn it into a business model or a way to drive political and sociologial change. Those two groups run the world, and if intelligence is so be accurately measured by anything, then it's that.

Certainly true. It would be foolish to only look at IQ. The Big 5 measure of contentiousness, as well as sub categories of the others are also important aspects of a human (spouse). Along with beauty and height as a proxy for general health.

Most IQ tests max out around 140. Unless you've taken one specifically for high IQ, 140 is the highest score you can really claim. There are some with, I guess I'd say, a plausible claim to accuracy up to 160 IQ. However, 120 IQ seems to be where happiness maxed out, also there aren't really any topics you can't understand at that point. Higher IQ will improve your speed of acquisition and there are specific tasks higher IQ can do much better, but other factors become more important in long-term real world activities.

They may seem incredibly stupid, and they are, but that just shows you how pitiful average is. It would be difficult to find someone in a university with a sub-100 IQ. Depending on the university, we're looking at an average of 115-135. You live in a world where finishing high school - a government non-barrier that logically would impede nobody - is not done by 5-15% of the population.

Higher education is no longer about learning or acquiring tangible skills, and has instead become an institution that focuses almost exclusively on networking and wrote memorization. Your individual instructors may be attempting to educate you, but why actually learn when you can just memorize some buzzwords, phrases, basic concepts, etc? Why fully grasp the material when you can parrot your way to a passing grade? Why develop the ability to think critically when you don't need critical thinking skills to graduate? After all, attempting to fully grasp a subject or develop critical thinking skills only takes away from time spent networking. Less networking means you're less likely to get hired after you graduate. No one in X company's HR department actually cares how well you understand your field, as a solid 90% of what you do will be on the job training. You just need the basics. Well, what do you know about that? That's exactly what you memorized when you were in school. The basics got you a passing grade, and they ended up getting you that 6 figure paycheck as well.
This is ignoring how politically charged academia has become over the last half century, and in general how politicking has become such an ingrained part of actually getting anything published. Imagine paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for an education only to find out that you can't actually get anything interesting published because it's politically inexpedient. Imagine forking over that much money only to get paid 3/4 of what you're worth. This is just how things work now. Unis have profited immensely.
In 1960, tuition at Harvard was $1,520. Inflation adjusted, that's $13,363. In 2019 tuition at Harvard was $47,730. That's a 257% increase. Want room and board? That'll be $69,607 plus tax.

Tuition is usually cheap for people who are not upper middle class, say families who earn less than 100k. Although this varies by the institution. There is a middle class trap where if your parents fall into a high enough economic bracket and squander their money, are hit with medical bills, etc. this can put you in really deep shit and limit your ability to attend uni. The main thing really is bad financial management on part of your parents so their income doesn't reflect their ability to pay for your education

Which is how the WASP elite is maintaining their exclusivity. You can't actually let people into an Ivy based on merit. Many rich wouldn't get in and the school would be 95+% middle class white/asian kids who won hit the genetic lottery. How would you know which white kid is your people? So the old money white still get in on legacy and pay for it with pocket change. Plus a bunch of poor, (but not any African American) colored kids fill up the other slots. Fortunately the POCs are easy to spot, so just don't invite them into Skull&Bones, then the old money doesn't really have to deal with them. But you can't just have a 90% brown school, regular white people would notice. So let in about 25% jews. They are only hard to spot if you don't know to look for them. Meaning the hoi polloi are fooled, but it's not like Jews are going to try to sneak out on to a fox hunt with you.

The median household income in 1960 was $5,600. Inflation adjusted that's $49,232. Median househole income in 2019 was $68,703. In comparison to the 257% increase of Harvard's tuition, we see that median household income only increased by 40%. That said, this ignores labor force participation rate. Women's labor force participation rate in 1960 was 38%, while it is 57% today. Men had a labor force participation rate of 83% in 1960, while it is only 69% today. What does this imply? Shit's fucked, that's what.

That would make sense, but i haven't seen any numbers to back it up so idk. Either way, a labor force participation rate comparison between single and married men wouldn't give us much evidence anyway, as we would have no clue whether or not the men aren't married because they aren't working or whether they're not working because they aren't married. Similarly goes for unmarried fathers compared with unmarried men with no children, as it's likely that said unmarried fathers would've been working prior to the birth of their children anyway. The most likely answer is that it's a combination of factors.

Essentially, men have been stagnant since the late 60s when you adjust for inflation while women have been skyrocketing up up and away. Interesting stuff. I wonder who's behind such a phenomenon.

Unemployment implies looking for and unable to find a job. There are people like me who could get a job but don't currently want one. I do software development, which pays pretty well. As a single man with no children, I don't need a lot of money. I don't even have a video game habit that consumes income. So I will work a couple of years and then take a couple of years off. I used to travel during the off years as travel can be very inexpensive if your schedule is flexible. This year of course the pandemic ruined that but my state isn't too bad on restrictions so I get out to do hiking and camping. I get requests on LinkedIn constantly from recruiters asking if I'm available. Think the closing of the borders has hurt their H1B pipeline so now they're desperate to find Americans to work those positions.
Around the end of 2021 I'll need to find a new job, which I'll probably work for two years, saving enough to cover my expenses for a couple more years of not working. Probably lots of other single childless men doing similar things though maybe with parttime jobs rather than fulltime off and on like I'm doing.
