In my kink survey (n=500,000), I asked people if they'd taken an official IQ test. If they said yes, then I asked them what their score was. It looks like average answers group more closely by birth sex, not gender: Cis males: 128 Cis females: 126 Transwomen: 129 Transmen: 126

Number of people who marked yes and included an IQ answer: cis males: 22691 cis females: 28061 transwomen: 1207 transmen: 2150

(obviously the average answer is nearly 2std higher than average; my guess is ppl are disproportionately likely to be given IQ tests if they seem smart to begin with, and also much more likely to report their results if the answer is high)

I also would think that the people taking your survey have above average IQ

in my experience, it’s more likely that nobody on the planet is more predisposed to overestimating their IQ (and often outright lying about being tested) than terminally online postrats major pet peeve of mine
