nijabazaar: Your account up there proves the theory right!!! The mothers were not particularly super intelligent.. We all know opposites attract.. Rarely do you see very intelligent men marry super-intelligent women.. All to do with the egos.. That's why the slay-mama ministry keeps on increasing from glory to infamy!! . 6 Likes |

Olalan: And the men of this generation are smart? Yet these same smart men will somehow marry dumb women. If you ask me, I think the men are dumber. It takes a special kinda dumb to put up with a dumb person for life. 2 Likes |

Very true, my father is a wizard in mathematics and sciences, a known master in calculating figures,but we struggled me and my brother in maths and sciences with poor grades through school, to the extent that my father quarreled my mother for giving him boys not Good in maths and sciences like him. But as I grew older I picked up.. |

nijabazaar: No intelligence is not but the genes are. Like I said earlier, you can’t transfer knowledge but the genes responsible for a knowledge can be pass onto the next generation. The possible reasons why the offspring from the names mentioned are that; Both men carry’s a recessive gene(Dd) The moms carry’s the same(Dd) or The moms carry’s a dominant (DD) which will completely covers the effect of the recessive(Dd) 1 Like 2 Shares |

LMAO intelligence gene.....Who was Albert Einstein's mother? I mean when it comes to intelligence, Einstein represents elitism so where did he get his intelligence? His stay at home mom who could not understand physics or his physicist/mathematician dad who helped guide him into the world of physics? Further factcheck shows this theory is unproven but some people can continue drinking the cold zobo: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/intelligence-is-inherited-only-from-your-mother/ |

This is Pseudo-science nonsense. I've read the original PsychologySpot excuse of a report, and there was no mention of any research that directly confirms this. I wonder why people keep spreading it. If intelligence resides in the x and women are more likely to transmit it because they have two, why aren't women twice as intelligent as their brothers? 2 Likes |

nijabazaar: Who do you this thing? We are talking about children inheriting intelligence from their mothers and you are here mentioning the fathers. Sorry. At least, you now have an idea why your reasoning and inability to comprehend certain simple facts is handicapped. |
Re: "Children Inherit Their Intelligence From Their Mother Not Father" - Research by Ozkar: 11:49am On Mar 19, 2019 |
crackhaus:it was based on one rubbish PsychologySpot article. They just made assumptions upon assumptions and posted a bunch of unrelated sources at the end, none of which confirms the hypothesis. Guess it's one of those feel-good-women articles. Why you should thank your mother and not your father. 1 Like |

Tedpgrass:how does that prove the theory right? Nigerians sef, never bothering to verify anything 'researchers' say. Haven't you seen siblings of the same mother and one would be very intelligent while the other even has less-than-average intelligence? |

Ozkar:That's the right term to describe it. What we have here is a hypothesis. If it was all about posting articles, i could easily post one that discredits this. https://www.forbes.com/sites/emilywillingham/2016/09/16/no-research-has-not-established-that-you-inherited-your-intelligence-from-your-mother/#748d89226502 |

RTSC: It boils down 2 nurture & training not nature & inheritance. An intelligent woman would definitely impact her child with her intelligence/level of thinking and a mentally average woman will do same 4 her child. This is even more true cos children spend more time with their mothers than their fathers 3 Likes |
