Trans Species Okapi Ok, so in your head imagine an apple.
Now try spinning it.
What did you see?
So earlier I got into a discussion that involved being able to visualize something.
Personally I believe the ability to visualize is mostly genetic, and has nothing to do with I.Q. or Gender, it's just something some people can do, like folding your tongue in half.
Reportedly it can also vary how much you can visualize, like how some people can only visualize still images.
Thought?

My theory is that it has a lot to do with how early you were exposed to language/speaking with others and the written word. Some people have the inner monologue and/or ability to visualize more strongly than others, and my completely anecdotal experience points to kids who were young readers and/or socialized early.
Like dog training. You gotta practice early and often, or you end up with a slobbering r-slur and disordered behavior.

That checks out, I had a hard time making friends as a kids so I read a frick ton of books.
That doesn't mean I'm smart though, still like 50% dumber then the rest of the population.

Same.
"Smart" is kinda relative though. There's very few geniuses who know absolutely everything, and still most of them are r-slurred in some other aspect.
Most people are smart in specific areas and dumb as a box of rocks in others. Such is life.
