    Too many of these so called studies set out to find what they are looking for and oddly find it. They remind me of the Sokal hoax, or Diederik Stapel, who made up his research data, Sometimes you don't even have to pretend you are looking.

    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    What do you do if a blonde throws a pin at you?
    run away because she's holding a grenade.

    A blonde want to go ice fishing, so she goes out and cuts a hole in the ice. She hears a voice from overhead that says, "There are no fish there." So, the blonde moves about 20 yards away and cuts another hole in the ice. She hears the voice again, "You may not fish there! Move along!"
    The blonde looks up and asks, "Is this the voice of God speaking to me?"
    The blonde hears over the loudspeaker, "No, genius, this is the manager of the ice skating rink."

    A blonde was telling a priest a Polish joke,
    when halfway through the priest interrupts her,
    "Don't you know I'm Polish?"
    "Oh, I'm sorry," the blonde apologizes,
    "Do you want me to start over and talk slower?"



    Three blondes were walking through the desert when they found a magic Genie's lamp.

    The Genie came out and said: "I will grant three wishes, one for each of you."

    The first said, "I wish I were smarter." So she became a redhead.
    The second blonde said, "I wish I were smarter than her." She became a brunette.
    The third blonde said, "I wish I were smarter than both of them."
    So she became a man.

    I don't know how credible the study is. How people describe themselves for a survey is not necessarily reflective of the truth. What guy will describe himself as an insecure, fearful, unconfident man who is afraid of women. No - he will describe himself as virile, macho and in charge of his own destiny. Assuming truthfulness on a survey about people's own personalities is a mistake. People are often incapable of admitting to themselves that they are fearful and paranoid.
    In quoting my post, you affirm and agree that you have not been goaded, provoked, emotionally manipulated or otherwise coerced into responding.

    Fear? Paranoia? Insecurity?
