<p>pmrlcomm took the words right out of my mouth. Different subjects require different forms of intelligence. Being good at sociology requires you to have good intuition about the way humans interact. This sort of intelligence is totally unnecessary for math; many math students would look at you like a deer in the headlights if you ask them if they think society is too heteronormative. So my comments apply to more than just math. But math is somewhat unique in that it requires a very high degree of the form of intelligence tested on IQ tests and not much else.</p>
