It seems that most folks are happy with dating people equal or less that equal to their own intelligence. Would you date someone with a known high IQ?

Almost anyone would be a higher IQ than a southern redneck from Mississippi. So the answer is yes.

Oh yes, I forgot....we Mississippians can barely read, or so I was told recently....it's because we can never get past the name of our state....Faulker spelled it as many pronounce it, you know....Missippi.

I think it would come down to a number of factors with the biggest issue being compatibility. If someone bores you to tears because you can't understand them or aren't interested in what they want to discuss I think the relationship would fizzle very quickly.

Some people can be extremely well educated but still be "dumb" .... so it all comes down to the person and not their own individual intelligence level as there are many more factors involved.

I believe I could associate with either end of the IQ scale as long as the person is interesting and fun to be around.
