The Flynn Effect is somewhere in the neighborhood of 1/3 IQ point per year. So unless your girlfriend is 120 years younger than your grandmother...
Also the Flynn Effect is observed in similar magnitudes in men and women. IQyou/IQyourgirlfriend is predicted to be the same as IQgrandpa/IQgrandma, at least the part of that ratio attributable to the Flynn effect.
He didn't actually mention the Flynn effect in the above post.
OK you've got me freaked out. I'm staring at army1987's comment that I replied to and it says "...contraceptives, the Flynn effect, etc."

I have no idea how I managed to miss that.
