The Ladies Did Not Need a Scientific Study To Prove This. Honey, We Knew This.
Actual scientific study at Duke University: Dominance, Politics, and Physiology: Voters’ Testosterone Changes on the Night of the 2008 United States Presidential Election
And the study found that men who voted for McCain / Palin had a 28% loss of testosterone on election night.
The results were clear-cut. Men who had voted for McCain – or the libertarian candidate Robert Barr – experienced a 28 per cent loss of testosterone almost as soon as the contest was over. LaBar notes that levels of testosterone, produced by both male and female gonads but in much larger amounts in men, are directly linked to important masculine behaviors such as “aggression, risk-taking and response to threats”.
Apparently the male GOP and Barr voters reported feelings of “unhappiness” and “submissiveness” following the crushing defeat of their chosen national leaders.
So that explains why after the 2008 election, Republican men went home on a crying jag and did the dishes. And that is also how Republicans ended up with wussy candidates like Romney, Gingrich, and Santorum this election.
It’s called emotional castration.
LaBar and his colleagues report that testosterone levels among women and Democrats in the trial were unaffected.
So, what this study says is that voting Republican is dangerous to your manhood.
Republican men: No group in the world deserves emasculation more.
I consider it a personal challenge to best our record and set a new Testosterone Tanking Level in Republican men this November. Honey, it is our duty as Democratic women to go to the Republican headquarters on election night and pass out the much needed Viagra. Well, after we point and giggle, that is.
Thanks to MB for the heads up.
Passing out Viagra would be too expensive and probably not effective for that bunch. I do like the idea of pointing and giggling though. Maybe we could give them pink dye for their tighty-whities.
1I saw another article about testosterone on the news page today: the other one supposedly proved that high levels of testosterone result in early death. The headline was something about “eunuchs live longer”. heh heh heh
2Uh, you did notice that the Democratic level was at a higher level BEFORE the election but stayed the same. So just being Democratic has an advantage here.
3does this mean more democrats will be conceived and raised as a result of 4 more years of obama? gee, one can only hope so.
4There has got to be a connection with this study and the smaller winkies that Rush is concerned about.
5Females have gonads? Where?
6They have a cream for that now…. and it’s covered under Obamacare!
7I’d like to see the same study performed on Dem women, ’cause I bet lots of Dem men got some action after President Obama was elected.
That man knows how to love a woman.
“I’m….so in love with you…..”
8Larry, ovaries are gonads. The word does not refer only to testes but to the reproductive organs that produce the raw materials for reproduction. And it does take both to reproduce.
9This story also maybe explains why gun sales rose sharply after the Republican ticket lost.
10That means GOP men were down to 2% after McCain. Explains why there are more Dems born than Reps
11Oh my. I think I know who to send this link to…
12I would not want to waste any Viagree as they call it here in TN on REPIGS – pointing and laughing will cause them BRAIN-PAIN and that will be even more fun.
