Surprise, surprise. Men who are physically weak are more likely to favor socialist policies.
An academic study from researchers at Brunel University London assessed 171 men, looking at their height, weight, overall physical strength and bicep circumference, along with their views on redistribution of wealth and income inequality. The study, published in the Evolution and Human Behavior journal, ?found that weaker men were more likely to favor socialist policies than stronger men.
Brunel University's Michael Price believes this may be a product of evolutionary psychology.
"This is about our Stone Age brains, in a modern society," said Dr. Price. "Our minds evolved in environments where strength was a big determinant of success. If you find yourself in a body not threatened by other males, if you feel you can win competitions for status, then maybe you start thinking inequality is pretty good."
Taking his assessment one step further, Price wanted to factor in gym time to see if he could determine the relationship flow between strength and socialistic leanings. Are men who are naturally strong more inclined to hold capitalistic views, or are men with capitalistic views driven to go to the gym?
"When Dr Price factored in time spent in the gym some, but not all, of the link disappeared," notes The Times, suggesting there may be something to men with capitalistic views hitting the gym.
"Of course this isn’t rational in modern environments, where your ability to win might have more to do with where you went to university. Lot of guys who are phenomenally successful in modern societies would probably be nowhere near as successful in hunter gatherer societies," added Price.
Other studies in the past have also suggested stronger men are more right-wing than physically weaker men. "Researchers found that men's opinions on redistribution of wealth could be predicted by their upper body strength, with powerful men more likely to take a conservative stance of protecting their own interests," noted The Telegraph of a 2013 study from Aarhus University in Denmark.
Anyone with two eyes would be hard-pressed to refute such findings."

Read the whole study.
I'm also thin, yet even at 68, can easily out-hike and out-last 99.9% of all men, regardless of age, on physically demanding high mountain hunts. And I can do so all day, every day.
That would be quite an accomplishment; they've been passed around at least 34 times (that we know of).......
I'll tell you what.
Let's each put on 45 pound packs and do a 100 mile hike through the high Sierras or high Rockies.
You'll be crying for your mommy in less than ten miles, while I'll finish the 100 miles and finish in great condition.
To put it another way:
I
Will
Kick
Your
Sorry Azz
Any Day and Every Day!
100 miles in the high mountains with 45 lb packs.
Put up or shut up.
musta been pizza day at school, or a new volleyball player has arrived, maybe both....sumthin has paulzee's dander up
nva, paully would kill you at the tickle tickle game, not much else....
That bet's a sure thing. Double down!.
The only problem with it is MikeyVagina is too much of a puzzy to accept the bet.
So now it's official!
"Lets not make me responsible for giving you a massive myocardial infarction."
So there we have it.
Mikey Vagina is afraid a 68 year old man will embarrass him to death if he accepts my challenge.
So, like we all knew he would, he refuses to accept the challenge.
What a PuZZy!
We'll put $10,000 down on the bet. In addition, if I lose, I'll reimburse you for your airfare to Reno and back, First Class, no less, as well as your hotel bill.
I will not, however, cover your ER care, your helicopter medical airlift from the mountain to the hospital, nor any other of the medical charges you will surely incur.
Paul actually has an excuse...he is the sole survivor of the little known centrifuge brain experiment. Paul entered the program at a very early age when his parents dropped him from the lower balcony to see if he would bounce. Fortunately, he was able to enter the CBE program and made a miraculous recovery of sorts.
Fat Chance!
Here's why!
Scamper nervously away little one, scamper, scamper......
Rhody said it best. I think Nva is part mountgoat. He has to be with all the sheep he chases or wants to chase.
I just hope I can run around in the mountains half as good as Nva does when I am his age.
Oh oh I probably scared MikeV away with that post. Hahaha
This bet would be easy money.
All I ask is a picture of Coach Zeiden at the 6 mile marker. (10 k).
Offer good to June 30.
Please let this happen!!
Good one, Joe!
I second that. After all, I might suffer a my o card y'all infartchian or something after that.
The Puzz will have now excuses then. Home field advantage, no jet lag, to time away from work or family.
We can have a grand event a Bowsite Get Together and watch an epic fail.
Good idea. But I'd rather see it done in the high mountains because that offers a much tougher challenge,
C'mon MikeV! Make this happen. You're a sure thing. You're not going to let some scrawny, frail, Geritol munching, old guy get out of his lane are you? Kyle himself has made self-deprecating posts about his upper body strength. The 45 lb pack will definitely give you the edge. You're a stud. Kyle's so old his nut sack is the least wrinkly thing on him. Think of all the good you could do with the money. 'Cause we all know you'd selflessly donate your virtually guaranteed winnings. Show your students that opportunities are to be grasped and challenges taken up. Seize the day! I'll kick in some Leuko Tape and Ibuprofen to help keep you going.
Hellooooooooo?!?!
He must be doing something of import and is distracted. A man of his virtue wouldn't just scamper away.
C'mon MikeV. Put Kyle in his place. Show everyone what you're made of!
Oh. Wait a sec... I think you've already done that rather effectively.
It's his wife who would need the attorney.
At the same time, I would require he have $2,000,000 of life insurance with her as the beneficiary. It's OK if it's term insurance and it wont be needed once he's lost. So he could cancel it after the race, if he survives. If he doesn't survive, his wife would have sufficient income available from the death benefit to continue on with her life without suffering financially. She and their children shouldn't have to suffer the consequences of her being married to a damned fool.
Given we know we can't trust him, we'd need to open a trust account which would hold his $10,000 and my $10,000 in cash. When the race is over, I'd then be sent a certified check for $20,000.
Thanks for the laughs, fellas!
Please do not kill him.
If Mikey Vagina takes the bet, maybe I could discount the $10,000 he'd owe me by some amount, dependent on his never, ever showing up on the CF again.
I'd have to work out a formula, however, because we know his word is totally worthless as he's shown by coming back even though he promised he would be gone from the CF forever if The Witch From Hell lost.
How bout her and I come out there, I do the best I can, and you guys catch me on your way back? She thinks she's got a good chance against you!!!
Better look out Kyle!
I have 'threatened' no one, azzhole.
I proposed a bet. I offered NO 'reward.'
If you EVER try to physically assault me, I promise you I will render you sterile and turn you into a soprano within seconds. That's, of course, if you're lucky.
Otherwise, I'll just drop you on the spot, given NV is a CCW state and the local District Attorneys are very supportive of folks like me who refuse to be victims of azzholes like you.
Mikey Vagina is the one who challenged my fitness, not the other way around. I merely called him on his challenge.
So you're not only a liar and an azzhole, you also are not capable of comprehending what you read.
So stop lying, if that's possible.
Did you perhaps mean to say he went into training because he was stoned on sweet pot?
I only saw an invitation to come out and play. The only threat I saw was yours. We're supposed to be having fun.
"...just drive out and Body Slam you for the Fun of it!!" ?
That's not legal now. And that wouldn't be fun.
Rugby is fun. Even one on one tackle drills.
Hey, azzhole.
You want to go head-to-head with me on the 100 mile high mountain trail backpack hike?
If so, here's another $10,000 bet, This one's for YOU, azzhole.
Same conditions apply re. a Hold Harmless Agreement and life insurance, although you may not need the insurance if you live in your parent's basement and can't get a girlfriend, let alone a wife, as seems likely.
So, given all that, why are you afraid to accept my bet?
Oh, I know! I know!
You are afraid you'll get your azz kicked.
Which, in fact, would be exactly what would happen.
I don't give a crap that you're half my age. Indeed, I figured that was the case.
And BTW, if your winning what you (erroneously) think would be an 'easy' $10,000 is a waste of your time, that's obvious proof to everyone it's simply a lame excuse for not accepting my challenge.
The reality is it would be an easy $10,000, only for me, not you.
All of which makes it all the better for me to know without question I WILL BURY YOU!
I've been at the very highest level of fitness for endurance and high mountain challenges for over 35 years.
If you dare accept the challenge, you will not only lose, you will be humiliated and forever embarrassed that an old man wiped the floor with you.
And that's the facts, Jack!
The only good thing about that limp walk-back you just offered was that it was mercifully brief. Who exactly, shortcake, do you think you're fooling? You bluffed, your bluff got called and you haven't the good sense to just shut your pie hole and crawl back into the liberal swamp that bred you.
You're about as much a 4-year NCAA athlete as you were a PhD; god, was that a laugh-fest; "I had to work very hard and edited my thesis 5 times before it was accepted by the thesis committee." I remember that priceless gem dockeater. Number one Skippy, you may, MAY get one shot at an edit and that's with your thesis advisor, not the committee. You meet with your full committee (usually your advisor and 2 other professors) only when it's time to present your thesis, and you bring 5 bound copies in with you. One copy is for each thesis advisor, one for the school library and one for yourself. Ponder for a moment how I might happen to know this dipstick.
Your bravado rings as hollow as every other offering of swill soup you've served up; about as close to zero as the odds that you'd still be in the same zip code as Kyle at the 10K mark in the hills. The party not aware of their limitations has been and remains you-from every standpoint here you've been way out of your depth. If you weren't such a monumental coward I'd actually be embarrassed for you.
Now by all means read a few of the bathroom stalls at Briarcliff and snap off a few of their contained juvenile witticisms for us; at least the teens in your institute of indoctrination might have a smidgen more imagination than you've got; in every iteration you've been a colossal bore.
Scamper back into the closet little one.....scamper, scamper......
I'll take exception to this statement. Mikev you're a fool. Haven't you realized that your character is being called into question? From reading your comments I think not. You created the situation you're currently in, not anyone here.
Let's face it, a hiking competition isn't too entertaining. Something involving a roped ring, or cage, would be.
Matt
DANCE?????
ROTFLMAO!!!!!!
Really? No, really. NCAA Track & Field recognizes scampering as sanctioned event? Why don't you google up some pics of you in your NCAA athletic events? Kinda like you did on that fake ass live hunt. Got busted on that, though. Seem to forget that most on this site are, how should I put it, smarter than the average bear. My guess is you and Freebie are typical liberal wussy ass snowflakes, looking for safe places to drink your sweetened wussy coffee, while your women are secretly hoping to find a real man to rock their world.
Dancing? JHC..... I plan on spending the morning cutting grass, then spreading nine yards of mulch before the rain showers. Then I need to clean my M&P Shield, XDm, SKS and AR after yesterdays session at the range with my wife. Man stuff.
I think we can assume his/her real name isn't Fritz Greenlee as his/her registration states, so it's quite possible he's/she's lying about his/her gender, too.
Matt
Apparently, you've never been on a sheep hunt?
"WoW BeauBender that is Super Impressive!!"
No, just typical normal man stuff. Normal Saturday morning in the life of a real man. Typical of what most Bowsiters do, with the exception of one or two wussy snowflakes. Build a fence? Sh!t dude, you don't know which end of the hammer to use to drive nails.
Try this, wimp:
100 mile trail run in the High Sierras.
41,000' of elevation change in the heat of the summer.
Altitudes reaching 8,000.'
20:31:09
Neither one of you two twerps has any idea what you're up against!
A few years ago, one of the many iterations of Freeglee, MikeVagina, PaulZ, posted a live hunt, pics and all. One bowsiter, I think it was Itshot, checked the metadata (I think) on the pics and discovered it was from an ad, or some such. BUSTED!! Can't remember if that was the story where the doe scampered nervously away.
I've run Boston four times. Best time there was 2:40.
Twice I've run marathons at under a six-minute-per-mile average pace. 2:36:14 and 2:36:48
MikeV - it is pretty plain that you aren't going to take Nva up on his challenge the way he has it set up. Even if you are serious about thinking you can win I understand, all it would take is tripping on a tree root right off the bat and spraining your ankle and you just lost 10 grand. I know I don't have that kind of money to lose, (of course in my case I know I couldn't keep up with the sheep hunter anyway). So how about this, you go and run this race with Kyle, no money on the line, may the best man win. I was in Reno for the International Science and Engineering Fair some years back and I can tell you it is worth the trip just to see the scenery. Beautiful area.
This is a serious suggestion and of course Kyle would have to agree to the no money bet. How about it, it would enable you to prove the naysayers wrong? Shoot, we might even get enough money raised among the bowsiters to pay your way out there so you can get it done.
Bring it on, wussy boys. If you think he's lying, put up your money and your microscopic balls.
Matt
B) I have no idea why a liberal would roil at the proposition that physical weakness contributes to their political expression. Kind of a "Well, duh." moment, really. Such a study would actually codify their platform and provide subtext to their claims of intellectualism and evolution. That such information is met with rancor only reveals the mendacity of their beliefs.
Further, higher levels of estrogen -both inherent and ingested has to factor as well. I expect a correlation exists between the waning T levels, rising estrogen and the increasing favorable regard for collectivism.
So, you're more than happy to run at the mouth, yet you aren't willing to take the bet and face the humiliation of losing to a skinny old man?
Who knew? LOL!
Too funny, actually.
Free$h!t shows up here and brags about how tough he is and what a wimp I am. Yet he refuses to take my bet.
Gee, wouldn't ya' think that if he was half as tough as he says he is, he'd be eager to take a skinny old man's $10,000?
What a phony!
"Very interesting, I do not recall you accepting my Counter-Bet!! "
That's probably because you never MADE a counter bet. You only bragged about dancing for 18 hours, as in:
"I dont run or hike!! I would take any bet involving dance however!! Nva would need the Insurance and Ambulance after only an Hour!! Meanwhile I can go almost 20 Hrs!! I have done this 4 times since 1978 with the most recent, 18 Hrs 37minutes in 2007!!! Bring it on "Tough Guys"!!!!
Saying you'd take a bet is in no way the same as making a bet.
Geeze!
Besides, NO ONE 'dances' while millions hike in the mountains.
I chose the weighted backpack hike bet because Bowsite is a site for HUNTERS, not tu tu wearing dancers!
Do you have ANY clue as to how much you embarrass yourself here?
ROTFLMAO!!!!
You proceed from a faulty premise; as you've aptly demonstrated some acumen in the past I'll leave it up to you to choose whether to continue using the shovel or to put it back in the tool shed......
BTW, Paul, the Meaning of Life: "To Know God and Make God Known."(Frank Turek) Not only a useful topic but fundamentally crucial. Again, I'll note, your derision exposes your value system.
BK seems to be right. The things that came up were all regarding a former NFL player who is now 73. Nothing the liar who calls himself 'Freeglee' has said matches that in any way, shape, or form.
If you're correct, then here's the perfect theme song for him/her/it.
Does anyone here know of a good way to do that?
You're better than that, Kyle. I hope.
Matt
LOL
Never once have I heard a dance challange from man nor woman. WTF ???? Is with that??
But I digress. If the little weasel is such a proficient dancer who is his partner? Or does he dance with himself? I know he plays with himself.
Taxpayers and parents have the right and the duty to know who is teaching/indoctrinating their children.
He's the one who's posted under 34 false registrations.
He's the one who has not only admitted he indoctrinates his students then laughs about it.
He's the one who makes up stories about what he's done, and;
He's the one who lies over and over and over again every single time he shows up here.
You act like a 68 year old infant, at times.
Most grownups try to ignore trolls and hope they go away, not invite them with demeaning threads dedicated to them.
With all due respect, quit fertilizing the weeds, my friend.
Matt
Because of all the rain we had earlier this year, I've spent oodles of time spraying hundreds more weeds the past two months than I've had to spray before.
I will continue to 'spray weeds' until they are all gone.
Every time you engage a troll, especially at their level, you encourage them to come back, because that's why they are here. You provide the pathetic game they crave.
Matt
Every time I (or anyone) post(s) one of the photoshopped images of Paul Zedian, Briarcliff Manor High and mention his name/school with the image, it increases the chances of a hit when searching his name...which many parents who are involved in their students' education often do. If anyone does so and hovers their cursor over an image, it shows that the source comes from the Bowsite. It is not too hard to imagine that one of these days a student at BCMHS will come across one of Paul's images and we all know what will happen then...widely shared among the entire school.
Poor Paulie...the Internet is forever.
This thread is a prime example. It's sole purpose was to incite a reaction for the trolls. Kinda sad, really.
Matt
They are great reminders of who liberals really are and why they are going to continue to loose elections!
They also make some humorous entertainment!
You're correct, I'm sure. But sometimes it's just too much fun exposing them for the fools and know-nothings they are to resist.
Seeing them get repeatedly humiliated in public, as has been done on this thread by the majority of posters, is rather satisfying.
The biggest liberal troll on the CF finally shows up. You having any of your minions over for Memorial day dinner KFC?
KPC is neither a troll nor a liberal!
How in the world he got the idea that you are either a troll or a liberal, let alone both, is beyond me.
I never said any such thing. I only suggested showing people where they could read what he's written. Not what I've written, but what HE'S written.
What's more is that Sybil told us that he had fully informed his superintendent about his trolling the CF with lies and hate. He said he and the superintendent laughed about it. So, if Sybil was telling us the truth on that, he'd have nothing to worry about if his 'employer' were to read this thread, now would he?
Freeglee is not Sybil.
But pretty much all of the rest of the trolls are.
EDIT: Sybil doesn't just post from school, esp. on weekends, of course. But it's just as easy to get his home IP info as well.
In your haste to disparage Jeff you put your foot in your mouth. Given the frequency of that occurrence perhaps your penchant is understandable as by now your taste buds have had ample time to acclimate to the taste.....
Unfortunately, I discovered the incubator that had the pheasant and chukar eggs that were due to hatch in the next day or so had somehow gotten shut off. I'm afraid we lost them. Now I'm aggravated.
Yes he is. KPC is a bit less obvious about it.
And here all this time I thought you were smarter than that.
I was wrong, obviously.
Tell you what: Show us a few posts of his that you think shows he's a liberal!
KPC's dislike of the TOT has nothing to do with politics! His position is, "Don't ban them. Ignore them, or, beat them using rational thought."
KPC's been here a for a very long time and he's in my Top Ten of the posters on the CF posters whom I admire and respect the most.
You owe him an apology, my friend.
Just because you deem it to be so, that does not make it "truth". Call it "truth" til the cows come home, it still won't be "truth".
If you only had a brain.
And, you're still a putz.
Hey, I don't agree with his political positions whatsoever, but ya gotta admit the guy (or gal) is funny. I think GG might be onto something here with the gender thing... ... ... Grey Goat...LOL!!!! Sorry Matt, but that is funny....
LOL!
YOUR'E the one who questioned my credentials, you puzzy!
All I did was call you out on it.
Did anyone really ever believe a person (let's not sully the term "man" by using it on this individual) would ever accept any challenge from anyone here under any circumstances? One would think posting under 34 false registrations would have made that answer abundantly clear-NO!
So, amidst the false bravado, the laughable claims of accomplishment at the end he bows out-not with a bang, but with barely a whimper.
Is anyone surprised?
At the end of the day gents, none of you have to prove one damn thing to this cretinous turdlet; time to let his every utterance go unmet; do what should be done to any attention whore-deny the attention.
Let PaulZy/MikeV talk to himself til the cows come home; time to deploy the ultimate weapon; simply ignore the troll.
