Teacher here! Trivia will NEVER be a legitimate way of assessing someone's intelligence! The ability to recall random, often arbitrary facts is certainly a talent but is NOT the end all be all. I know it can seem like that, given how schools prioritize tests, but I promise that your ability to do well on tests is not the only representation of intelligence.

In Sweden you choose what you want to learn when you go to highschool (you still have regular classes but you have a major in something else). I chose makeup and hairstyling since I wanted to be a makeup artist. A lot of people in my class dropped out very quickly since they thought choosing makeup would mean easy classes, then they realized we had to learn about ingredients in products and different acids and the layers of the skin, and it wasn't so easy anymore. Just because someone likes beauty or fashion doesn't mean they aren't smart and just as hardworking.

So correct me if I'm wrong, but a vestigial trait is something that animals have evolved to not NEED but is still present in the body, right? Like your appendix, for example. But if they are removing contestants from the show entirely, then they aren't vestigial. Vestigial traits remain in the body naturally unless surgically removed, generally. So Ben Stein's "smart" comment about the contestants being vestigial is inaccurate. I guess he could be saying that the show has evolved past their necessity, but in the context of the event happening it doesn't really make complete sense.

[@kiralonely]

Yeah, intelligence overall is hard to define since people can have strengths in different subjects. Like I'm a dumbass at formulas and mathematics in somewhat more complex terms, and I'm dumb as rocks at American history. Why? Cause it doesn't interest me. But I still knew quantum mechanics in middle school cause I was a science nerd and I liked it. In science terms, I'm at least somewhat intelligent (I don't think I'm all that smart, I just like science, I'm mediocre at best lol) and I can teach myself languages and instruments, which is my expertise, of which is still growing. I love learning, and I learn a lot from people who are labeled "dumb", because everyone has talents and places of expertise, lol, it's so silly to act like that.

The thing about the "models/weightlifters are dumb" trope is that everyone has specialized knowledge. Models probably have extremely in-depth knowledge of cosmetics and skin care, or fabric dynamics and clothing construction, and weightlifters know a lot about anatomy, nutrition, and health. Everybody has some intelligence, it's just what the focus on that we choose is "valuable" or prestigious or not.

[@theywalkinguptoyouand4060]

But no. To say a model has that kind of knowledge is very wrong. Just because they have makeup placed on them doesn't mean they know anything about makeup or skincare! That's an insult to cosmetic chemists and aestheticians. People go to college for fashion design, you know . You don't just get specialized knowledge in clothing just because you model in it. You gain knowledge in the field you are in. Yes, some models have advanced STEM degrees. But a lot don't. Their work and time is spent on modeling. On getting fit. Not quantum mechanics or neurosurgery.

[@theywalkinguptoyouand4060]

And scientists with advanced degrees would beg to differ that notion that "everybody" has advanced knowledge. No. Some people are just stupid.

[@Thatposer444]

I mean most do people have different knowledges in different things we just define “advanced knowledge” in different, mostly arbitrary ways.

[@merrymachiavelli2041]

Intelligence is a different concept than knowledge. If we compare humans to computers, intelligence is broadly analogous to processing speed, knowledge (which is essentially just long-term memory) is analogous to computer memory. In theory, the difference between a very intelligent human and a less intelligent human is the how quickly they are able to process and create links between newly acquired pieces of information. A fast computer vs. a slow computer. In practice, however, humans are obviously not computers. There are different dimensions to intelligence (an award-winning playwright might not be great as mathematics, a mathematician might not be great at designing a chair..etc.). Prior experience and memory is also likely to influence how good we are at tasks because of how the brain works, even when there isn't any inherent link e.g. people who are bilingual tend to have an easier time learning new languages, even if the new language is completely unrelated to any others they know. Personally, whilst I think it is broadly true some humans are more intelligent than others, from what I understand of it, quantifying 'intelligence' (as opposed to ability to do specific things) seems kinda hopeless, except perhaps for identifying people with intellectual disabilities.

[@beatricefox937]

I really appreciate the way Jarvis handled this but I would just like to say this program is manipulative. Gathering young people who likely have quite a precarious career (excuse my ignorance, unlike Jarvis I am not a model) and making them the brunt of the joke to make others feel superior is disgusting. People seem to revel in how ‘shallow’ models are and make jokes about how they don’t eat and have miserable lives to tear them down due to the way they are treated by society’s high regard for conventional attractiveness. Hate the system, don’t hate the real people caught in it. If there’s any point you disagree with please share your opinion; I really would like to educate myself on this topic.

Spelling fashion brands is an impressively dumb test of intelligence. I get that models should probably be familiar with the brands they work with, but I’m a neuroscience major and my instinct would be to spell foreign brand names as “guchy” and “versachy”. (I get that my major doesn’t automatically make me smart, but I do take difficult classes and have to successfully spell words like “amygdaloid” and “hypothalamus” regularly.)

[@leahdavis9434]

That's because you focused on science. If you focused on languages or maybe history, you would become familiar with the conventions of spelling in other languages, and how ending with a y would be extremely unlikely in most of those places. And if you focused on fashion you would see the brands a lot. In Forensics/Law you might hear about the Versace murder. But not knowing that doesn't mean you're less of a person or unintelligent, of course. Not knowing how to spell Versace doesn't make much difference in your life, it's not a vital skill.

And that garbage "documentary" misrepresents evolution to make it look like some kind of dangerous dogma that only stupid people would believe. It directly blames the theory of evolution for the Nazi eugenics programs and the Holocaust, because apparently learning about natural selection made Hitler want to "improve" his country's people or something?

This could have been a good show that shows how models aren’t stereotypes and they are real people too. Maybe that’s too much 2021 thinking but their challenges could be funny random every day tasks like making food or baking a cake WHILE modeling. Or even taking a math test WHILE modeling. Like with photographers and everything. And it could have a huge range of models from plus sized to different nationalities and people wouldn’t constantly remind you about the same “fun fact” about them like the weight comments etc. I would 1000% watch that instead of creepy men being creepy and people thinking they’re Heather Chandler being petty mean girls.

I did a little bit of modelling around the time that this show came out (although I was a teenager, I was very thoroughly trained by my agency), and by what I can see the "problem" they had with her walk is probably that she had a very arched back (I don't know if it is something that she learned from being a lingerie model or if she had some sort of back problem) and she moved her hips a bit too much (most people at the time wanted you hips to move as little as possible, which I always thought was ridiculous and was so glad when that trend went away). That being said, saying "she walks too sexy/like she's having sex" is 1) not helpful *at all* and 2) extremely rude and offensive.
