Why is it that it seems like men who tend to have a proper childhood and puberty, who grow into healthy, robust, athletic men in their 20s, tend to be more basic and without intellectual inclinations?
You see this the typical jock stereotype.
A lot of men gifted with good jawlines, mesomorph body types, who exude a lot of masculinity are just "basic" and they lack intellectual depth.
Perhaps that enjoying a rich social and sexual life just makes one fulfilled that he doesn't feel the need to meditate about the world, read books and all that. And honestly it's not fair.
Play ball, bully the nerds, party, get lots of ***** in high school and college, lift weights and that's about it.
Almost always, the guys with higher IQ tend to be on the autism spectrum to some degree. They tend to have little muscle mass and / or little interest in their physical appearance. They tend to have lackluster sexual lives. They tend to be less genetically gifted, less handsome.
This is of course a big generalization, but this myth must have started from somewhere.
I personally have worked a lot to develop a muscular body and improve my looks. And it definitely improved my life. I have more sexual success, I've become more assertive, more cocky. It is turning me more into a "jock". I have less interest to read books.
It must be the Testosterone at play here.
