Do you think older man have more geeky children because it takes a geeky man longer to get a woman?

I was reading this and it got me thinking:

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/06/170620114143.htm

Sons of older fathers are more intelligent, more focused on their interests and less concerned about fitting in, all characteristics typically seen in 'geeks,' suggests new British research.

I think that that this can be explained by the fact that geekiness - or at least the genetic dispositions that correlate to geekiness to some degree - is inherited, and that it takes geeky men longer to get a wife, and non-geeky men that get women easier simply have their children earlier in life and thus on't have them later in life. This is similar to my theory about why older fathers have a higher risk of having children with autism or Asperger's.

Generally speaking older fathers have older friends who happen to have older sons, it means the son of the older father doesnt have a group of same age peers while their parents meet...here comes getting used of being alone instead of being concerned about fitting it.

Plus older fathers are less likely to have energy to involve their sons in sports or physical activities or any activity to begin with, the son is alone at home and has no other option than sitting in front of a screen or building things.

The same "geeky" kid would be a different kid if allowed to play with kids his age or being involved in sports from his father.

As the geeky son of parents who had me in their late 30s I wholeheartedly concur.

Geeky kids are tied down by stricter parents. Can be a bad deal, I know from experience.
My dad is so submissive, and mom is the most controlling woman I've ever known. And perfect, never done/does anything wrong.
Sigh.

Also, smarter men won't just bust their nuts unprotected, and smarter women won't **** any men. So they are less likely to carry pregnancy.
