Physically weak men tend to be socialists

Least surprising academic study of 2017



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.



Now, I'm not exactly built like Arnold - I only occasionally visit the gym - but I can't fit into a modern hipster jacket.



Back when I lived in New York - it was 2011, a few months before I moved to Florida - I went shopping for a modern-looking microfiber jacket suitable for cool weather. I visited a dozen boutique stores in Manhattan, trying on a variety of nice-looking jackets. None of them fit me in the chest. Even if I was able to zip them up over my chest, I couldn't move my arms. And those that fit my chest were made for a much taller guy. But if I were that tall, the jacket probably wouldn't fit around my chest either. Eventually I gave up my search, and I'm still wearing my old jacket I bought at Costco ten years ago for $30.



That experience made me wonder if the jacket designers and manufacturers know something about their customers that I don't. That there has been a change in the human species and I didn't get the memo. That the newly bred males of homo sapiens (at least those in big cities like New York) are supposed to be uniformly weak in the upper body, with tiny concave chests and narrow shoulders, and the exceptions like me are so few that it is no longer economically feasible to make jackets with more room around the shoulders.



This anecdote confirms the above study - if your upper body mass exceeds the limitations of a hipster jacket, you are destined to wear a business suit with lots of room for your chest and shoulders.



It is a fact that most New Yorkers lean towards socialism, and their current fearless leader Mayor de Blasio may as well call himself a communist. De Blasio himself is a big guy physically, which makes sense - he is a leader of the puny-chested masses, not a follower. Socialism does divide people into leaders (business suits) and followers (hipster jackets), which also matches the body type.



One of the questions in the study was, "Are men who are naturally strong more inclined to hold capitalistic views, or are men with capitalistic views driven to go to the gym?"



What I wonder is, do fashion designers simply react to the increase in the puny-chested socialist-leaning demographic - or have they created an ideal puny-chested look that young people in big cities aspire to match?



Are those in charge of fundamentally transforming America purposefully using fashion design to create sluggish herds of anemic, sickly followers who would vote for socialist policies?



I'm sure this conspiracy theory is worthy of its own discussion thread.

I'm sure he doesn't.  I just figure the title should reflect intent.

If more about me than him. I'm the socialist on this forum. Romero is a progressive that shills for his wealthy prog paymasters. He's a fake socialist.

RW

You think you're a socialist?



You're kidding right?

See IHJ, you're getting sucked into the petty games that cc plays.  She's miffed about the attention brought by Romero's signature which is a direct quote and her very own words.  She's stewed on it for a couple days and she provided a flippant response in the war thread but this is her actual response.  She's using this study to say Romero is weak in her own devious, (not so) subtle way.

I know a lot of liberal lefties and I haven't noticed that as a trend.  I guess when you hang out with trades people, you tend not to run into too many weaklings.

I should re-title it to read - "How to fuck up a fun thread by playing psychiatrist over the internet ..  extremely poorly" ... ffs the person you are so certain this was for is not worth a post let alone a thread



As I just was forced by this recent fixation with and misrepresentation of yours  about what I am actually thinking ... to say said an hour ago in a different thread
Quote.. I speak quite straight up for myself and do not need nor take to others attempting to explain for me what I mean

That says it so I'll leave it at that



Listen up. Lighten up and quit this shit



Can we all now have fun with it again like we were having before ............. ?

Oh please.  I know you well enough to know EXACTLY what your intention was.  Don't whine that you got called out on an obvious and rather shameless attempt at trolling another user.



Not one of your best cc.
