Reported by:

The average libertarianphile has an IQ ~0.75sd below average and is inferior to the average person across all cognitive subdomains, with degree of libertarianphilia being negatively correlated with all measures of intelligence

"Teleiophilia" means attraction to adults. The reason even adult-attracted people display a slightly lower than average IQ in this study is likely due to the sample being limited to male patients reporting "illegal or disturbing sexual behavior", meaning the IQ differential between libertarianphiles and non-libertarianphiles is likely even greater than this study suggests, given that paraphilia and criminality in general are likely predictors of low IQ, and that men have slightly but significantly lower IQs than women !moidmoment

I'll never understand what compels one to go online looking for an article like this

I was looking for studies on whether paraphilia in general is associated with low intelligence and the only stuff I could find was this, a bunch of older, shitter studies on IQ and libertarianphilia, and a "pre-print" whose title was exactly what I was looking for, but was simultaneously AI generated and in broken English, and was actually all about how vaccines cause autism. I fricking love science
