I thought an outie was someone proud to show their gayness (which is what fazed me with inny).
What is a typical outie protrusion....

I'm 5'ish, no asthma, IQ is above 130 (just) which I found out when I was in hospital, at the age of 13, with not depression, but similar kind of thing which they never managed to diagnose. Brunette with very long hair (never been cut!). Female, studying maths and physics (I was the only girl in my A-level maths class!). Middle child. Atheist. Single. I'm half Welsh, and half Indian, though that's not as rare as it used to be. I think I'm definately one in 6 billion
(though I am a right handed innie, so I am a part of some majorities!)

Hmm. With a bit of effort it shouldn't be hard to be one in *more* than six billion
I mean, that's only three one in a thousands...
Let's see...
I skipped two years of school, that's gotta be one in a few thousand...
I juggle fire, hmm, another one in a thousand...
I'm a computer programmer, ditto...
Hmm. And I have a transatlantic long-distance relationship...
There ya go, I'm one in a thousand billion

I'm asthmatic, have an atrial septal defect, fibromyalgia, PTS, and astigmatism, and am allergic to nuts, chocolate, mold, pollen, animal dander, most solvents and detergents, and dust mites.
I'm a natural redhead, am more or less ambidextrous (can't write lefty anymore though, thanks to Catholic schooling), have an IQ over 140... and have an inny.
Oh, and I can't wink, whistle, or roll my tongue! I be an retarded!

Ambidextrous.
Colour blind.
Short sighted.
Hay fever sufferer.
6' & 60kg more or less exactly.
Hair used to be a really horrible shade of ginger, but thankfully turned blonde when I was quite young.
As for IQ, I've only taken one 'proper' IQ test, which I got 141 in, this being the highest mark available. However, I feel that IQ is actually a load of bloody nonsense that tests only your exam skills and some very narrow logic skills. I've also yet to meet the person I wouldn't consider both intelligent & stupid in many ways.

Syren Posted Jun 1, 2003
I totally agree on the IQ thing, I think its always better if you define something before you start measuring it! I don't think there's any way of defining intelligence, its just as much a matter of opinion as beauty is!

Actually,my mom was a schinophrenic-paranoid child psychologist;whew!no wonder I`m bi-polar(only 4 instances in my life,but they`re quite enough-thank-you).But-she coached me as to the iq test ?ions.they are biased,I have no doubt about it.1 ? was:how tall is the average man? My dad was 5'6"-so I assumed this was the norm,only to have mom tell me "no,honey,the average man is 5'9""How biased is that??God forbid,you`re from another culture-you`ll never get the ?ions 'right'.Bah humbug...

I'm noticing one thing which *might* be considered an anomaly -- lots more natural redheads than in the general population! Also, more left-handers. H2G2ers generally brighter than most, I think.
Inny statistics out of my league.

It does seem that way,doesn`t it?? iq-wise,that is;not that it`s a necessary blessing-it can drive you before your time/but in this site it`s sublime/...
