Go for it, she seems like she's on your level.
Maybe she can even teach you not to make life decisions based on fascist pseudoscience.
But with great respect, the question isn’t about a supposed measured level of IQ. OP is just saying “she don’t seem all that smart, guv’nor” and use the term IQ as a short hand for this. I doubt OP has sat down and asked this girl to do an official IQ test. Not sure why this immediately has to descend into a discussion about fascism and white supremacy.
Fascist? I thought IQ testing was designed around the apolitical flavour of white supremacy.
IQ was made to find out who the worst-performing student in a class was, and then immediately became about deciding who to sterilize.
Use in a classroom setting is questionable enough as is, but when applied in a general sense to other things, that's fascist pseudoscience.
