> [@brazil84](#): > > Not exactly. As children grow older, their genes play a greater role in determining their IQ. Because heritable means genetic, right? Number of sexual partners presumably grows more heritable through a personā€™s life. Does that mean sexual voracity is genetic?

> [@gamerunknown](#): > > Because heritable means genetic, right? Pretty much yes. > [@](#): > > Number of sexual partners presumably grows more heritable through a personā€™s life. I donā€™t know if this is true or not. It would be very difficult to measure. It would appear that the Kardashians are a data point in favor of this hypothesis. (ETA: Query whether Kim Kardashian was born to be a slut or raised to be a slut) > [@](#): > > Does that mean sexual voracity is genetic? Possibly yes. If there is some way to measure sluttiness, I would not be surprised at all to learn that genetics plays a role. Anyway, putting the issue of race aside, are you disputing that on an individual level, genetics plays a substantial role in determining a personā€™s intelligence? Are you disputing that the size of this role generally increases from childhood to adolescence? (Again, on an individual level.) ---

> [@Gyrate](#): > > Against you. Lol, whatever. As I asked you in what is now post #2356, do you agree that some of the observed differences between Race 1 and Race 2 are the result of genetics? Also, are you seriously disputing that differences in eye color between two large groups of people is caused substantially by genes? And are you saying that you donā€™t know whether Ashkenazim and ethnic Germans can be grouped by their genes? And what exactly would I look for to determine whether a particular group can be grouped by its genes? Would I look for a gene (actually an allele) which is found in all members of that group but in no other group? Or something else? ---

Iā€™m sorry - are you under the impression that I care to continue to engage in your irrelevant semantic tangents? I realized pages ago that you werenā€™t worth seriously engaging with since you never seem to understand any answer that isnā€™t ā€œyesā€ or ā€œnoā€. The fact that I indulge in the occasional potshot is purely for my own amusement rather than to persuade you of anything. Or if you like: goodbye, idiot.
