Why are nearly all fathers' rights' activists highly intelligent?

basically, following that premise, if virtually all gentleman are highly intelligent for dads rights, then either 1. you dont have enough data\n       2. most likely they have the money to proceed and  \n          get results\n       if your premise true, i think money is defining difference. Most of us ordinary joes dont have the cash to pursue any cause no less this one.

because men think they know everything

The problem is not lack of intelligence. Intelligent, proactive and interested politicians are pushed out before they get too far up the ladder.

Generally speaking it is a matter of statistics and genetics, and actually statistically speaking men are on average 5 points ahead of the fairer sex IQ wise. \n   In all actuallity boys and girls up to age 14 have no measurable difference statistically wise in IQ, however after that age there is a consistent widening in the IQ gap between men and women up to the age of 45, where IQ generally tend to stabalize.\n    A generally accepted biological explanation, after extensive simplification, is that males evoveled their mathamatical and spatial abillity becuase of the need of those skills for hunting, navigating, and competing for natural resources (think cave-man). Women's 'mental aptitude' on the other hand dealt with teaching, communicating, and raising and caring for offspring (think cave-woman). So wait, does this mean that women are better at communicating then men?\n The answer is not surprisingly an emphatic YES! In fact a majority of studies found that on average women are indeed better at commicating then men, and have consistently shown better verbal and writing skills in all of the basic aptiude tests (think SAT and ASVAB) used. So why do men have higher IQ's, well becuase most IQ tests stress memory and spatial development, most likely becuase it is extremely difficult to accurately measure anything related to imagination and creativity.\n   So what is the answer..well officially its men, but thats what just the book says. There are many other factors to take into consideration when determining how 'smart' someone is than just a test: drive, motivation, determination. Honestly it all comes down to the person...

many people with advanced education think that people in areas like new guinea are smarter and more intelligent then most white people in the world, and that they are more intelligent overall\n\nim reading currently the book guns germs and steel by jarod diamond

it's a matter of nature and environment. \n\na person's heredity and gene make-up has a lot to do with how intelligent they are. you can find evidence of this in many subjects, not just humans. some anilmals are "smarter" than other animals. sometimes chromosomes get crossed and a person is born with disabilities. it's just a part of nature.\n\nalso, the environment in which a person grows up effects their intelligence. if a child is raised in an environment that does not harbor knowledge and education, that child will not flourish mentally.

I think it's great their is a group out there to help father's. Especially one's that are dealing with VERY difficult mother's, which is more than often the case, in why father's never see....or want to see their children...or the mother's use the children...against the father's, just to keep making life hell for them. It's not right, so yea..father's need rights, because the courts, won't give them any...and usually always favor the women.

We all live in our society... most "great men" held the prejudices of their time.\nMartin Luther was a terrible anti-semite.\nSo was Richard Wagner, and Richard Strauss.\n\nCertainly the great minds of the Enlightenment weren't thinking about women when they said "all Men are created equal."  Thomas Jefferson held slaves and had sex with them.\n\nThat makes these people human. BUt their accomplishments are still very important to religion, culture, political thought.\n\nNobody's perfect (well, some people say one man was perfect, but he's a man-god.).  As long as we don't engage in "hero worship," thinking our founding fathers, or musicians, or philosophers, or movie stars, are perfect, holding some beliefs of the time does not destroy the person's other accomplishments.

Intelligence is God given because nobody else in my family graduated from a university at sixteen like my sister did. And it's not acquired either because she read at nine months. Some people got it and some have to work at it.

Alex P. Keaton? Is that you?\n\nBrash generalizations sure are fun. Must be nice to live in a little bubble of tainted/deluded thought. To knock "protestors" or people with ideas outside of the norm is to totally disregard American history.\n\nI graduated college with honors, I vote, I have a steady job, bathe daily, don't own birkenstocks, and contradict every last word you've said. Yet when there are issues that I am passionate about, I WILL speak up.\n\nProtesting isn't only for liberals... Look at the crazy zealots throwing tantrums (or worse) at women walking into a planned parenthood clinic. They use god to justify their violent behavior.  They use god to chastise gays, proudly toting signs with the most hateful and ignorant language I've ever seen.\n\nCan you explain that? Really, I'd LOVE to see your reply! If not, I think you need to find something more important to worry about....

It is not that they are not well-educated, nor is it that they are stupid. They seem to be the most upstanding of men, and yet they are not what they seem, for they have stopped asking "Am I doing the right thing?" They assume that with a certain degree of power comes carte blanche. Everything they do is right. They turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to any consequence of their actions which may be unpleasant. Why should they upset their golf game?\n“A man who has in mind an apparent advantage and promptly proceeds to dissociate this from the question of what is right shows himself to be mistaken and immoral. Such a standpoint is the parent of assassinations, poisonings, forged wills, thefts, malversations of public money, and the ruinous exploitation of provincials and Roman citizens alike. Another result is passionate desire — desire for excessive wealth, for unendurable tyranny, and ultimately for the despotic seizure of free states. These desires are the most horrible and repulsive things imaginable. The perverted intelligences of men who are animated by such feelings are competent to understand the material rewards, but not the penalties. I do not mean penalties established by law, for these they often escape. I mean the most terrible of all punishments: their own degradation.”Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 B.C.)

yes, because vigilance balances man's tendency to abuse not only his liberties but others as well. Vigilance is all that keeps the world from utter despotism.

Because some people have good ideas, some have the ability to persuade others, some can make hard decisions easily. What sex you are doesn't enter into it. People with the aforementioned qualities should lead.

As the third child of the third child who placed first,second or third in his class,I grew up confident about my mental ability.Then at college intelligence was defined as all around general ability.Everyone knows who leads in science and technology,mathematics and certain related skills.Environment affects IQ; and it may bolster intelligence in a crisis.For example,I read a news story of a man who used the door of a fridge and a broom to scull to safety during the disaster in Loisiana.No matter what his IQ score says, I consider him ingenious and a genius to think of such an idea.I made the Dean's List(180/810)but I have not arrived;neither do I worry about IQ.I work at developing all around ability for crisis moments.

It is true that women still get paid less than men and very few women are holding leadership position. However, the Vitorian perception that men are "naturally" smarter and more intellectually capable than women is no longer held to be true. In fact, there are more elected female leaders (in the world) right now than at any point in history. The fact that these leaders receive strong supports from both male and female constituents shows the rising level of respects that men have for women as intellectual partners. As further proof, recent surveys indicate that the majority of men think that women are just as intellectually capable than they are. Today's women have earned the respect as intellectual co-equal.
