Resolved Question

Show me another »

Is there a club like Mensa, but for low-IQ people like me?

My IQ is 73, and I was wondering if there were any low-IQ societies where I can hang out with like-minded borderline mentally retarded individuals like myself.

Additional Details

People, I'm being serious. I'm tired of hanging out with normal folk and feeling like an idiot. I want to hang out with people who are my level.

Hi Tyler,

It does not appear that you have a low IQ. On Yahoo Answers you have obtained 48 best answers and a total of 20 stars. Your spelling and punctuation are excellent. Your thoughts are well thought out. Congratulations. According to my "testing", you have passed my test and do not have even close to an average to low IQ.

On the other hand, I took offense with you describing some people with low IQs as borderline mentally retarded individuals. Did not like your term "idiot", as well. Suspect that you perhaps are trolling to get a reaction out of others on Answers, but please do not joke about people who have less than average IQs. I have met some of the kindest people in the world who were mentally challenged. I also have met some royal pains-in-the-neck who had high IQs. When it comes down to it, IQ is just one number and nothing more.

Asker's Comment:
I actually took an online IQ test and scored a 73. For real.

If anything, I was poking fun at people who take these tests seriously and think they are better than others if they score well. But I see your point and I'm sorry if it sounded like I was making fun of low-IQ people.
Thanks for your response. I am happy you explained your post. Ignore the on-line computer tests. Why not buy an IQ test book from a large book store and work through some of the tests in your spare time? If you are a student, your counselor might be able to give you info on your test results.
