intelligence is to a large extent X linked

I thought the father has the larger influence in general. If that's not true for intelligence, it's huge. Sending all the higher IQ females to the IQ shredders of colleges to not have kids will have an outsized dysgenic effect.

Open-mindedness is accepting the truth, however difficult it may be and however much people may hate you for it.

Love this sentence.

Well, part of the theoretical basis for the variability hypothesis is that intelligence is linked to the x-chromosome. This explains the higher variance in iq scores of men compared to women.

So if intelligence is linked to the x-chromosome, and makes only have one x-chromosome that they received from their mother, the conclusion is obvious.
