A new intelligence test is out, and the results are in some cases quite expected, and in other cases somewhat surprising.

Briefly, the results indicate that women are smarter than men, people of retired age are smarter than 20 year olds, self declared “Republicans”, “Democrats” and “Conservatives” are all about equally stupid, but “Moderates” are really dumb and “Liberals” are extraordinarily smart.

In a somewhat less rigorous version of the test, more differences are revealed: In this version, “Republicans” and “Conservatives” are morons, there is a reversal by age categories and the old grow stupid compared to the young, but males remain of highly questionable intelligence and “Liberals” still rule.

Here’s the data:
