Study Suggests That Wimpier Men Hold Liberal Views

The headline of the OP says "Study suggests that wimpier men hold liberal views"

The first line of the article says "Men who are physically strong are more likely to take a right wing political stance, while weaker men are inclined to support the welfare state, according to a new study."

I'm not seeing how the headline of this thread is disagreeing with what the article states.

The first line of the article is wrong/misleading too. I don't know what your problem is other than a lack of reading comprehension.

‘In all three countries, physically strong males consistently pursue the self-interested position on redistribution.’

Men with low upper-body strength, on the other hand, were less likely to support their own self-interest. Wealthy men of this group showed less resistance to redistribution, while poor men showed less support.

I can read quite fine.

""In all three countries, physically strong males consistently pursue the self-interested position on redistribution.’

Men with low upper-body strength, on the other hand, were less likely to support their own self-interest. ""

Exactly what I posted that the article stated.

When you date a libertarian man do they even know you are there with them on the date? You would have to avoid all mirrors.

Reading comprehension. Again, what that means is...

In line with their hypotheses, the data revealed that wealthy men with high upper-body strength were less likely to support redistribution, while less wealthy men of the same strength were more likely to support it.
 
People should keep in mind that it does require a great deal of mental discipline to establish and maintain strong physical girth and endurance. Also, the intelligence to understand nutritional health and whatnot.

I try to workout, but I have poor dieting habits, and struggle to maintain decent fitness levels. There are those who are just naturally built and can get away with being mentally incompetent, but they are not the norm.

I think the idea that people are naturally built is a defense mechanism for the weak. Same thing with notions that athletes are just born into it. If you are like 21 and under you might not have to really work at maintaining your fitness levels but pretty quickly it is due to your own effort.

Understanding nutrition is relatively simple, unless you are an easy believer. If you are not a skeptical sort you will chase one stupid fad after the next and your head will spin with all the seemingly contradictory information. The fitness/nutrition industry seems dependent on constant revolutions to take advantage of those who are looking for quick fixes.

I suspect that you could also find an inverse correlation between brains and brawn as well. Have you stopped going out queer bashing now?

Surprised you didn't go with 'Strong i'th'arm, weak i'th'ead.' Seems to fit.
